What it does
Breadboarding is an agent skill from koolamusic/claudefiles. Transform a workflow description into affordance tables showing UI and Code affordances with their wiring. Use to map existing systems or design new ones from shaped parts.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 11 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/catalog.md`, `references/concepts.md` and `references/examples.md`).
The repository describes itself as: A minimal catalog of my favourite skills for working with claude. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Map existing systems
- Design new ones from shaped parts
Example prompts
- “/breadboarding”
Requirements
- A Bash shell
Workflow steps
3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 297c432. 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
Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Shell), which the agent can run.
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
Breadboarding loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs, and up to ~16k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 47 tokens; SKILL.md has 553 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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

- description
- Transform a workflow description into affordance tables showing UI and Code affordances with their wiring. Use to map existing systems or design new ones from shaped parts.
Breadboarding
Breadboarding transforms a workflow description into a complete map of affordances and their relationships. The output is always a set of tables showing numbered UI and Code affordances with their Wires Out and Returns To relationships. The tables are the truth. Mermaid diagrams are optional visualizations for humans.
Use Cases
1. Mapping an Existing System
You have a workflow you're trying to understand. Provide code repo(s) and a workflow description (always from the perspective of an operator trying to make an effect happen). Output: affordance tables + optional Mermaid.
2. Designing from Shaped Parts
You have a new system sketched as an assembly of parts (mechanisms), which is what a shaping pass produces — /grill shape is one way to get there. Provide the parts list, the R (requirement/outcome), and optionally the existing system. Output: affordance tables + optional Mermaid.
3. Mixtures
An existing system that must remain as-is, plus new pieces or changes. Breadboard both together — existing affordances and new ones — showing how they connect.
Core Concepts
Places — A bounded context of interaction. The blocking test: can you interact with what's behind? No → different Place. Yes → same Place with local state changes. Places get IDs (P1, P2...) and can contain subplaces (P2.1, P2.2).
Affordances — Things you can act upon. UI affordances (U): inputs, buttons, displays. Code affordances (N): methods, subscriptions, stores, framework mechanisms.
Wiring — How affordances connect. Wires Out = control flow (what triggers what). Returns To = data flow (where output goes). Navigation wires go to Places, not to affordances inside them.
The Output: Affordance Tables
Every breadboard produces these tables:
Places Table
| # | Place | Description |
|---|---|---|
| P1 | Search Page | Main search interface |
| P2 | Detail Page | Individual result view |
UI Affordances Table
| # | Place | Component | Affordance | Control | Wires Out | Returns To |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| U1 | P1 | search-detail | search input | type | → N1 | — |
| U2 | P1 | search-detail | loading spinner | render | — | — |
Code Affordances Table
| # | Place | Component | Affordance | Control | Wires Out | Returns To |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| N1 | P1 | search-detail | activeQuery.next() | call | → N2 | — |
| N2 | P1 | search-detail | activeQuery subscription | observe | → N3 | — |
Data Stores Table
| # | Place | Store | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| S1 | P1 | results | Array of search results |

Column Definitions
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| # | Unique ID (P1, P2... for Places; U1, U2... for UI; N1, N2... for Code; S1, S2... for Stores) |
| Place | Which Place this affordance belongs to (containment) |
| Component | Which component/service owns this |
| Affordance | The specific thing you can act upon |
| Control | The triggering event: click, type, call, observe, write, render |
| Wires Out | What this triggers: → N4, → P2 (control flow, including navigation) |
| Returns To | Where output flows: → N3 or → U2, U3 (data flow) |

Can I use Breadboarding 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 koolamusic/claudefiles --skill breadboarding -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/breadboarding, .gemini/skills/breadboarding, .github/skills/breadboarding and .opencode/skills/breadboarding in your project.
What does Breadboarding need to run?
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Breadboarding needs a shell for the scripts in its folder. Our summary lists: A Bash shell.
Does Breadboarding 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 Breadboarding 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. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.
What licence does Breadboarding use?
Breadboarding is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
How many tokens does Breadboarding use?
About 1.3k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 5.1k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 15k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
