From the SKILL.md

# Cost Booster Edit Direct wrapper around `agent-booster.apply()` (npm `agent-booster` v0.2.x, exposed via `agentic-flow/agent-booster`). Use when a transform is **already classified** as Tier 1 eligible — `cost-booster-route` recommends *whether*; this skill *executes*. ## When to use - Bulk transforms across many files (`var → const`, `add-types`, `remove-console`, `add-error-handling`, `async-await`, `add-logging`). - Any simple, structural edit where an LLM would otherwise be called and billed. - Inside CI pipelines where determinism + zero-cost matter more than naturalness. **Do NOT use when** the transform requires reasoning about intent, naming, or cross-file context — those are Tier 2/3 jobs. ## Steps 1. **Take inputs** — `intent` (one of the 6 booster intents) and `file` path. 2. **Read the source** to a variable, derive the intended `edit` text from the intent (caller supplies). 3. **Invoke** — run from anywhere under `v3/` so `agent-booster` resolves: ```bash node --input-type=module -e ' import("agent-booster") .then(async ({ AgentBooster }) => { const booster = new AgentBooster(); const r = await booster.apply({ code: process.argv[1], edit: process.argv[2], language: p

About this skill
What does the cost-booster-edit skill do?

Apply a simple code transform via agent-booster's WASM engine — sub-millisecond, deterministic, $0 (no LLM call). Companion to cost-booster-route.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add ruvnet/ruflo --skill cost-booster-edit --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.

Where does this skill come from?

From ruvnet/ruflo, a repository with 67,015 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.

Is a popular skill a good skill?

Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
