What it does

Pattern Recognition Specialist is an agent skill from udecode/plate. Analyzes code for design patterns, anti-patterns, naming conventions, and duplication. Use when checking codebase consistency or verifying new code follows established patterns.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k 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. The repository describes itself as: Rich-text editor with AI and shadcn/ui.

When your agent uses it

  • Checking codebase consistency
  • Verifying new code follows established patterns

Example prompts

  • “Use the pattern-recognition-specialist skill to analyz code for design patterns, anti-patterns, naming conventions, and duplication”
  • “/pattern-recognition-specialist”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Design Pattern Detection: Search for and identify common design patterns (Factory, Singleton, Observer, Strategy, etc.) using appropriate…
  2. Anti-Pattern Identification: Systematically scan for code smells and anti-patterns including
  3. Naming Convention Analysis: Evaluate consistency in naming across
  4. Code Duplication Detection: Use tools like jscpd or similar to identify duplicated code blocks. Set appropriate thresholds (e.g…
  5. Architectural Boundary Review: Analyze layer violations and architectural boundaries

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6f3815d. 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

Pattern Recognition Specialist loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 52 tokens; SKILL.md has 541 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~52
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

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.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 541 words (~1,173 tokens).

“Context: The user wants to analyze their codebase for patterns and potential issues. user: "Can you check our codebase for design patterns and anti-patterns?" assistant: "I'll use the pattern-recognition-specialist agent to analyze your codebase for patterns, anti-patterns, and code quality…”
