What it does

Claudisms is an agent skill from Microck/ordinary-claude-skills. Claude Code plugin enforcing operational guidelines, terse responses, sequential execution, and no destructive operations without confirmation.

Its SKILL.md is about 480 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 33 other files (for example `.claude-plugin/marketplace.json`, `.claude-plugin/plugin.json` and `CLAUDE.md`).

The repository describes itself as: An unappealing collection of Claude Skills and resources. The licence is GPL-3.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Hooks and plugins

Example prompts

  • “/claudisms”

Requirements

  • A Bash shell

Workflow steps

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

  1. Process tasks sequentially (numbered order only)
  2. Test after every completed task
  3. Ask for confirmation before destructive operations
  4. Keep markdown documentation to 200 words maximum
  5. Provide terse, focused responses
  6. Use current tool versions
  7. Analyze databases before querying
  8. Avoid long-running operations
  9. Reuse and improve existing scripts
  10. Conduct RCA on repeated issues

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1056d29. 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 script files (Shell, from the files we listed), 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

Claudisms loads about 475 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 38 tokens; SKILL.md has 211 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~38
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~475

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.

Claudisms Operational Guidelines

A Claude Code plugin that enforces disciplined operational protocols for efficient, safe task execution with terse responses and sequential processing.

Core Principles

  • Sequential Execution: Process tasks numerically in strict order
  • Terse Responses: Keep responses to 1-2 sentences maximum
  • Code-First Approach: Prioritize code and automation over documentation
  • Safety First: No destructive operations without explicit confirmation
  • Conciseness: Minimal documentation (200 words max for markdown files)
  • Test Always: Test after every task completion
  • No False Claims: Never claim "production ready" or "100% complete"
  • Verification Required: No live production or GitHub pushes without direct confirmation

Key Features

  • Sequential execution protocols
  • Terse, efficient responses
  • Destructive operation safeguards
  • Test-after-every-task enforcement
  • RCA (Root Cause Analysis) requirement after 2+ revisits
  • No emojis or marketing language
  • Script reuse preference over recreation
  • Unix tool optimization (fd/rg over find/grep)

Operational Checklist

  1. Process tasks sequentially (numbered order only)
  2. Test after every completed task
  3. Ask for confirmation before destructive operations
  4. Keep markdown documentation to 200 words maximum
  5. Provide terse, focused responses
  6. Use current tool versions
  7. Analyze databases before querying
  8. Avoid long-running operations
  9. Reuse and improve existing scripts
  10. Conduct RCA on repeated issues
