What it does

Manage Patterns And Rules is an agent skill from AgiFlow/aicode-toolkit. Author project design patterns and coding rules with architect-mcp admin tools. Trigger when the user asks to change pattern or rule definitions. Do not trigger for reviewing existing code against unchanged rules.

Its SKILL.md is about 310 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 Design patterns. It works with Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: Toolkit for Coding Agents to work reliably with repo of any size. The licence is AGPL-3.0.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks to change pattern
  • Rule definitions
  • Reviewing existing code against unchanged rules

Example prompts

  • “/manage-patterns-and-rules”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Inspect project architect.yaml, RULES.yaml, template mapping and existing rules. Retrieve applicable design patterns with…
  2. Draft the exact rule or pattern, its file selectors and examples. Request approval for config writes, especially inherited/global changes.
  3. Use discovered admin schemas: add-design-pattern, add_rule (underscore, not add-rule) and validate-architect as appropriate. Do not guess…
  4. Re-query patterns and call review-code-change for edited files. A backend-free review may only return rules for the host agent to…
  5. Test on representative matching and non-matching fixture paths, summarize impact and provide rollback guidance. Workspace settings may…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d8debed. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    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

Manage Patterns And Rules loads about 309 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 60 tokens; SKILL.md has 124 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~60
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~309

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.

Maintain patterns and rules

  1. Inspect project architect.yaml, RULES.yaml, template mapping and existing rules. Retrieve applicable design patterns with get-file-design-pattern using file_path before editing any target.
  2. Draft the exact rule or pattern, its file selectors and examples. Request approval for config writes, especially inherited/global changes.
  3. Use discovered admin schemas: add-design-pattern, add_rule (underscore, not add-rule) and validate-architect as appropriate. Do not guess argument keys.
  4. Re-query patterns and call review-code-change for edited files. A backend-free review may only return rules for the host agent to evaluate; do that evaluation and report any missing configuration or failures.
  5. Test on representative matching and non-matching fixture paths, summarize impact and provide rollback guidance. Workspace settings may independently enable agent backends; get consent before invoking them.
