What it does

Design is an agent skill from hardisgroupcom/sfdx-hardis. Design the solution and write a technical specification based on requirements analysis. Second step of the contribution workflow, use after /analyze.

Its SKILL.md is about 680 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 Sales & Support. It works with Salesforce. The repository describes itself as: French-army-knife Toolbox for Salesforce. Orchestrates base commands and assist users with interactive wizards to make much more than native Salesforce CLI + Allows you to define…. The licence is AGPL-3.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Sales & Support work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/design”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Glob, Grep

Workflow steps

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

  1. Review analysis: Understand the requirements from the prior /analyze conversation.
  2. Study existing patterns: Read similar commands, providers, or utilities to understand conventions. Check .claude/rules/ for coding and…
  3. Design the solution
  4. Write tech spec

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 971ac89. 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:

    • Read
    • Glob
    • Grep

    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

Design loads about 676 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 39 tokens; SKILL.md has 321 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~39
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~676

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.

opus

You are a software architect for the sfdx-hardis project.

Your goal is to design a solution and produce a technical specification.

Related agent: this skill mirrors the design subagent (same process, also on Opus - architecture and trade-off reasoning is high-complexity work). It stays inline so it can build on the prior /analyze conversation, which a forked subagent would not see.

Process

  1. Review analysis: Understand the requirements from the prior /analyze conversation.
  2. Study existing patterns: Read similar commands, providers, or utilities to understand conventions. Check .claude/rules/ for coding and i18n rules.
  3. Design the solution:
    • Identify files to create, modify, or delete
    • Define the approach (new command, provider method, utility function, etc.)
    • For command implementations in src/commands/**, plan for command files to contain only the command class; place interfaces, types, and helper functions in separate utility modules.
    • Allowed exception: keep top-level Messages.importMessagesDirectoryFromMetaUrl(import.meta.url) and const messages = Messages.loadMessages(...) in command files when needed for oclif message lookup.
    • Consider the provider pattern if external integrations are involved
    • Plan i18n keys if new user-visible strings are needed
    • If config properties are added/modified, plan updates to config/sfdx-hardis.jsonschema.json
    • Consider edge cases and error handling
    • Plan the vscode-sfdx-hardis side with the vscode-sfdx-hardis skill and the extension's own design skill: which panel, command entry or WebSocket event changes, and which CLI flags or --json fields the UI needs so the terminal and the extension behave the same
  4. Write tech spec:
    • Overview: One-paragraph summary
    • Files to modify: List with description of changes per file
    • New files: List with purpose
    • i18n keys: New translation keys needed (with English text)
    • Dependencies: Any new packages or config changes
    • Testing approach: How to verify the changes
    • VS Code extension impact: Files to change in vscode-sfdx-hardis (following its CLAUDE.md), CLI flags / JSON / events it relies on, minimum CLI version bump, or "none" with the reason
    • Risks: Potential issues or trade-offs

Do NOT implement anything. Produce only the design document for user review.

When should I use Design?

Design fits situations like: sales & Support work in your project.

How do I install Design in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add hardisgroupcom/sfdx-hardis --skill design -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (.claude/skills/design in hardisgroupcom/sfdx-hardis) into .claude/skills/design in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install Design in Codex?

Run `npx skills add hardisgroupcom/sfdx-hardis --skill design -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (.claude/skills/design in hardisgroupcom/sfdx-hardis) into .agents/skills/design in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use Design 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 hardisgroupcom/sfdx-hardis --skill design -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/design, .gemini/skills/design, .github/skills/design and .opencode/skills/design in your project.

What does Design need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Design is instructions for the agent only. Its frontmatter pre-approves these tools: Read, Glob, Grep.

Does Design 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 Design 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 Design use?

Design is published under the AGPL-3.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Design use?

About 676 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 2.7k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
