At a glance

Safely remove a Polylith brick (component or base) from the workspace.

  • Works in 5 steps: Delete the source code → Delete the tests → Remove from projects → …
  • The user wants to delete
  • SKILL.md covers Steps to remove a brick and Notes for the agent
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Polylith Brick Removal is an agent skill from DavidVujic/python-polylith. Safely remove a Polylith brick (component or base) from the workspace. Use when the user wants to delete, remove, or tear down a component or base.

Its SKILL.md is about 380 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Tooling support for the Polylith Architecture in Python. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user wants to delete
  • Tear down a component

Example prompts

  • “/polylith-brick-removal”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Delete the source code
  2. Delete the tests
  3. Remove from projects
  4. Remove from the development project
  5. Sync and Check

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a7a80f2. 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

Polylith Brick Removal loads about 378 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 43 tokens; SKILL.md has 172 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~43
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~378

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.

Brick Removal Skill

💡 Terminology: this skill uses Polylith terms like brick, component, base, and development project. If they're unfamiliar, load polylith-concepts first.

There is no poly remove CLI command. Removing a brick is a manual process.

Steps to remove a brick

  1. Delete the source code: Delete the brick's directory under components/<namespace>/<name> or bases/<namespace>/<name>.
  2. Delete the tests: Delete the brick's test directory under test/components/<namespace>/<name> or test/bases/<namespace>/<name>.
  3. Remove from projects: Search across all projects/*/pyproject.toml files and remove the brick from the [tool.polylith.bricks] section.
  4. Remove from the development project: Remove the brick from the [tool.polylith.bricks] section in the root pyproject.toml (the development project).
  5. Sync and Check: Run poly sync (load polylith-sync) and poly check (load polylith-check) to ensure the workspace is valid and no other bricks were importing the deleted brick.

Notes for the agent

  • Always use your directory and file tools to verify the paths before deleting.
  • If poly check fails after removal, it means another brick was depending on the removed brick. You must fix the importing brick.
