+# Skill Security Scanner v2
+#
+# Scans installed AI coding assistant skills/plugins for security vulnerabilities.
+# Supports Claude Code, AMP, and other tools that use the SKILL.md format.
+#
+# KEY IMPROVEMENTS (v2):
+# - Progressive disclosure: quick triage before deep scan (saves cost on clean skills)
+# - Model tiering: Sonnet for checklist work, Opus for hard analysis
+# - Parallel scanners: Independent analyses run concurrently
+# - Persistent memory: Track scan history across runs (with sqlite+ backend)
+# - Graceful degradation: Individual scanner failures don't break the whole scan
+# - Customizable: scan mode, focus areas, specific skills
+#
+# USAGE:
+#   prose run 38-skill-scan.prose                           # Standard scan
+#   prose run 38-skill-scan.prose mode:"quick"              # Fast triage only
+#   prose run 38-skill-scan.prose mode:"deep"               # Full analysis, all skills
+#   prose run 38-skill-scan.prose focus:"prompt-injection"  # Focus on specific category
+#   prose run 38-skill-scan.prose --backend sqlite+         # Enable persistent history
+
+input mode: "Scan mode: 'quick' (triage only), 'standard' (triage + deep on concerns), 'deep' (full analysis)"

+
+## The Architect By Simulation Pattern
+
+The architect-by-simulation pattern is for designing systems by "implementing" them through reasoning. Instead of writing code, each phase produces specification documents that the next phase builds upon.
+
+**Key principles:**
+
+1. **Thinking/deduction framework**: "Implement" means reasoning through design decisions
+2. **Serial pipeline with handoffs**: Each phase reads previous phase's output
+3. **Persistent architect**: Maintains master plan and synthesizes learnings
+4. **User checkpoint**: Get plan approval BEFORE executing the pipeline
+5. **Simulation as implementation**: The spec IS the deliverable
+
+```prose
+# The core pattern
+agent architect:
+  model: opus
+  persist: true
+  prompt: "Design by simulating implementation"
+
+# Create master plan with phases
+let plan = session: architect
+  prompt: "Break feature into design phases"
+
+# User reviews the plan BEFORE the pipeline runs
+input user_approval: "User reviews plan and approves"
+
+# Execute phases serially with handoffs
+for phase_name, index in phases:
+  let handoff = session: phase-executor
+    prompt: "Execute phase {index}"
+    context: previous_handoffs
+
+  # Architect synthesizes after each phase
+  resume: architect
+    prompt: "Synthesize learnings from phase {index}"
+    context: handoff
+
+# Synthesize all handoffs into final spec
+output spec = session: architect
+  prompt: "Synthesize all handoffs into final spec"
+```
+
+See example 39 for the full implementation.
+
+## The Captain's Chair Pattern
+
+The captain's chair is an orchestration paradigm where a coordinating agent (the "captain") dispatches specialized subagents for all execution. The captain never writes code directly—only plans, coordinates, and validates.
+
+**Key principles:**
+
+1. **Context isolation**: Subagents receive targeted context, not everything
+2. **Parallel execution**: Multiple subagents work concurrently where possible
+3. **Continuous criticism**: Critic agents review plans and outputs mid-stream
+4. **80/20 planning**: 80% effort on planning, 20% on execution oversight
+5. **Checkpoint validation**: User approval at key decision points
+

+
+## The Recursive Language Model Pattern
+
+Recursive Language Models (RLMs) are a paradigm for handling inputs far beyond context limits. The key insight: treat the prompt as an external environment that the LLM can symbolically interact with, chunk, and recursively process.
+
+**Why RLMs matter:**
+
+- Base LLMs degrade rapidly on long contexts ("context rot")
+- RLMs maintain performance on inputs 2 orders of magnitude beyond context limits
+- On quadratic-complexity tasks, base models get <0.1% while RLMs achieve 58%
+
+**Key patterns:**
+
+1. **Self-refinement**: Recursive improvement until quality threshold
+2. **Divide-and-conquer**: Chunk, process, aggregate recursively
+3. **Filter-then-recurse**: Cheap filtering before expensive deep dives
+4. **Pairwise aggregation**: Handle O(n²) tasks through batch decomposition
+
+```prose
+# The core RLM pattern: recursive block with scope isolation
+block process(data, depth):
+  # Base case
+  if **data is small** or depth <= 0:
+    output session "Process directly"
+      context: data
+
+  # Recursive case: chunk and fan out
+  let chunks = session "Split into logical chunks"
+    context: data
+
+  parallel for chunk in chunks:
+    do process(chunk, depth - 1)  # Recursive call
+
+  # Aggregate results (fan in)
+  output session "Synthesize partial results"
+```
+
+**OpenProse advantages for RLMs:**
+
+- **Scope isolation**: Each recursive call gets its own `execution_id`, preventing variable collisions
+- **Parallel fan-out**: `parallel for` enables concurrent processing at each recursion level
+- **State persistence**: SQLite/PostgreSQL backends track the full call tree
+- **Natural aggregation**: Pipelines (`| reduce`) and explicit context passing
+
+See examples 40-43 for full implementations.

+### Error Handling
+
+```prose
+try:
+  session "..."
+catch as err:
+  session "..."
+finally:
+  session "..."
+
+session "..."
+  retry: 3
+  backoff: "exponential"            # none, linear, exponential
+
+throw "message"                     # Raise error
+```
+
+### Conditionals
+
+```prose
+if **condition**:
+  session "..."
+elif **other condition**:
+  session "..."
+else:
+  session "..."
+```
+
+### Choice
+
+```prose
+choice **criteria**:

+    session "..."
+```
+
+### Blocks
+
+```prose
+block name(param):                  # Define with parameters
+  session "... {param} ..."
+
+do name("value")                    # Invoke with arguments
+```
+
+### String Interpolation
+
+```prose
+let x = session "Get value"
+session "Use {x} in prompt"         # Single-line
+
+session """                         # Multi-line
+Multi-line prompt with {x}
+"""
