ub-mode

by unclebob

ub-mode is a skill file for AI coding agents that makes them follow strict software engineering habits, such as test-driven development, low complexity and no duplicated code. It works alongside separate checking tools that measure complexity, duplication and test strength.

What you can do with it

  • Make an AI coding agent write tests first and fix root causes rather than patching symptoms
  • Enforce limits on code complexity and duplication using the companion checking tools
  • Have the agent keep a log and make small, ordered commits as it works

Ways a business could use it

  • Improve the quality of code written by AI agents so there are fewer bugs to fix later
  • Keep a freelancer's or small team's codebase easier to maintain, cutting future rework costs

Can you use it commercially?

No standard licence detected. Read the licence before using it commercially.

Not legal advice. Read the project's licence file before building a product on it.

Getting it running

Copy the SKILL.md file into your agent's skills folder (for example ~/.claude/skills/ub-mode/) and run /ub-mode.

Follow the official instructions in the project README.

Things to check

  • No licence stated, so reuse rights are unclear
  • Full enforcement relies on separate companion tools that must be installed on their own
  • Needs an AI coding agent, which may involve paid usage

Worth a look

A skill for coding agents that runs a structured, multi-phase security audit of a codebase. It uses separate agents to find, challenge and verify vulnerabilities, then writes the results as machine-readable records and readable reports.

New and promising

A pair of agent skills that teach an AI coding assistant to produce a one-page technical drawing of a UI component, in the style of Apple's dimensional drawings. The sheet shows paddings, gaps, corner radii and layers, and a second skill can animate it into a short video.
