What it does
Core Protocols is an agent skill from Aedelon/claude-code-blueprint. Debug errors systematically by searching first, then analyzing, then proposing verified solutions. MUST BE USED when user reports: "error", "bug", "doesn't work", "fails", "crash", stack traces, exception messages, or any troubleshooting scenario. Triggers: "TypeError", "ImportError", "undefined is not a function", "segfault", "panic", "broken", "not working", "unexpected behavior", "regression", "failing", "exception", "traceback", "stack trace", "debug this", "why does this fail", "help me fix". Also enforces…
Its SKILL.md is about 1000 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Development, covering Debugging. The repository describes itself as: Production-grade Claude Code configuration: skills, agents, hooks, rules, and permissions working as a system.
When your agent uses it
- Exception messages
- Any troubleshooting scenario
Example prompts
- “t work”
- “TypeError”
- “ImportError”
- “/core-protocols”
Requirements
- Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): WebSearch, WebFetch, mcp__context7__resolve-library-id, mcp__context7__get-library-docs, mcp__fetch__fetch, Read, Grep, Glob
Workflow steps
3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Debugging Protocol
- Confidence Assessment
- Output Templates
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3bb5099. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
WebSearchWebFetchmcp__context7__resolve-library-idmcp__context7__get-library-docsmcp__fetch__fetchReadGrepGlob
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Core Protocols loads about 997 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 154 tokens; SKILL.md has 202 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 202 words (~997 tokens).

Debug errors systematically by searching first, then analyzing, then proposing verified solutions. Core Protocols is an agent skill from Aedelon/claude-code-blueprint. Debug errors systematically by searching first, then analyzing, then proposing verified solutions.
When should I use Core Protocols?
Core Protocols fits situations like: exception messages; any troubleshooting scenario.
How do I install Core Protocols in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add Aedelon/claude-code-blueprint --skill core-protocols -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/core-protocols in Aedelon/claude-code-blueprint) into .claude/skills/core-protocols in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install Core Protocols in Codex?
Run `npx skills add Aedelon/claude-code-blueprint --skill core-protocols -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/core-protocols in Aedelon/claude-code-blueprint) into .agents/skills/core-protocols in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Can I use Core Protocols in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add Aedelon/claude-code-blueprint --skill core-protocols -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/core-protocols, .gemini/skills/core-protocols, .github/skills/core-protocols and .opencode/skills/core-protocols in your project.
What does Core Protocols need to run?
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Core Protocols is instructions for the agent only. Its frontmatter pre-approves these tools: WebSearch, WebFetch, mcp__context7__resolve-library-id, mcp__context7__get-library-docs, mcp__fetch__fetch, Read, Grep, Glob.
Does Core Protocols access the network?
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Is Core Protocols safe to install?
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
What licence does Core Protocols use?
Core Protocols has a licence file (the repository's licence) that doesn't match a standard licence. Read it on GitHub before reusing the skill.
How many tokens does Core Protocols use?
About 997 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 4k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
What are the alternatives to Core Protocols?
