AI Code Skills

Curated AI skills packs for enterprise coding teams. Pre-built and bespoke rulesets that ensure your AI agents code to ISO, industry, and in-house standards. Every line generated meets the bar, every time.

50+ pre-built standards packs
ISO, OWASP, PSR, PEP 8 & more
Bespoke in-house rulesets
Works with any AI coding agent
Zero drift compliance

Two modes. Complete standards coverage.

Apply standards proactively as agents write code, or assess existing codebases retroactively with gap analysis. Use both together for full lifecycle compliance.

Proactive, Skills for AI Agents

Skills packs are loaded into your AI coding agent's context before it writes a single line. Standards are enforced as code is generated, not after the fact.

Skills Packs

Pre-built rulesets for ISO 25010, OWASP, PSR-12, PEP 8, and dozens of industry frameworks. Deploy in minutes, your agent generates compliant code from the first prompt.

Custom Rulesets

Define your own in-house coding standards and conventions. Your agents will follow them as faithfully as your best engineers. Layer custom rules on top of any standards pack.

Agent Integration

Works with Claude, GPT, Copilot, and any LLM-based coding agent. Plug in via skills packs or API-driven enforcement. One set of rules, every agent.

Zero Drift

Standards are embedded in the agent's context window for every generation request. No post-processing, no manual review for compliance, rules are followed by construction.

Retroactive, Codebase Assessment

Already have a codebase? Our assessment tools analyse existing code against any combination of standards and produce detailed gap analysis reports with prioritised remediation guidance.

Gap Analysis

Scan your existing codebase against selected standards. Identify exactly where code falls short, which standards are violated, and the severity of each gap, file by file, rule by rule.

Remediation Plans

Each gap analysis produces a prioritised remediation roadmap, critical security issues first, then compliance gaps, then quality improvements. Feed the plan directly to your coding agents to fix issues automatically.

Compliance Reports

Audit-ready reports for stakeholders, regulators, and QA teams. Document which standards were assessed, what was found, what was remediated, and what remains outstanding.

Continuous Assessment

Run assessments on every release, pull request, or sprint boundary. Track compliance trends over time and catch regressions before they reach production.

Purpose-Built Agents

Every skills pack ships with companion agents designed to implement and verify compliance. These aren't generic assistants, they're specialists trained on the standards they enforce.

Implementation Agents

Agents that understand the full depth of each standards pack. They apply rules as they code, handle edge cases the documentation covers, and make standards-aware architectural decisions, not just style checks.

Verification Agents

Dedicated agents that review code against the active skills pack after generation. They catch what slipped through, flag deviations with specific clause references, and suggest compliant alternatives.

Pack-Specific Expertise

Each agent is tailored to its standards pack. An ISO 27001 agent understands threat modelling. A DO-178C agent knows about structural coverage. They bring domain knowledge, not just rule matching.

Implement & Verify Loop

Use implementation agents to write compliant code, then verification agents to confirm it. A closed loop that catches gaps before code review, reducing manual effort and accelerating delivery.

Beyond Open Source

Curated skills that go further than public repositories.

Open source coding rules are a starting point. AI Code Skills is where enterprise teams go when they need depth, precision, and accountability.

Interpreted, Not Copied

Public repos typically paste a standard's table of contents into a prompt. Our packs are hand-interpreted by engineers who have read the full specification, distilling hundreds of pages into actionable, context-aware rules that an AI agent can apply correctly.

Conflict Resolution

Real codebases operate under multiple overlapping standards, ISO 25010, OWASP, PCI-DSS, and your own house rules. Our packs resolve conflicts and define precedence so your agents don't generate contradictory code or silently ignore one standard in favour of another.

Maintained & Versioned

Standards evolve, OWASP Top 10 changes, ISO publishes amendments, frameworks release new versions. Our packs are actively maintained, versioned, and updated. Open source rules are often abandoned after their initial commit, leaving your agents enforcing outdated guidance.

Framework-Aware

A generic "use parameterised queries" rule is useless if your agent doesn't know whether you're in Laravel, Django, or Express. Our packs are framework-specific, they know how your ORM works, where middleware sits, and what your testing conventions look like.

Audit-Ready Provenance

Every rule traces back to a specific clause in a published standard. When a regulator or auditor asks "why does your code do this?", the answer is documented, not "because an AI suggested it" but "because ISO 25010 clause 4.2.3 requires it."

Enterprise Customisation

Open source packs are one-size-fits-all. We work with your team to layer organisation-specific conventions on top of industry standards, naming patterns, architectural boundaries, security policies, and domain rules that reflect how your engineers actually build software.

Advanced Capabilities

Built for serious engineering teams.

AI Code Skills injects your chosen rulesets directly into the AI agent's context window. Whether you are using pre-built standards packs or bespoke configurations, every code generation request is filtered through your compliance layer before output reaches the developer.

"AI agents generate code at extraordinary speed. Without standards enforcement, that speed becomes a liability. AI Code Skills turns it back into an advantage."
Chris Dean , Managing Director, Digital Tactics
AI Code Skills workflow, from ISO standards through interpretation and skill packaging to maintained coding skills packs used by agentic coding teams
Detection

Drift Detection

Frequently Asked Questions

AI Code Skills is an AI agent compliance platform that embeds coding standards directly into your AI-assisted development workflow. It works by injecting your chosen rulesets -- whether ISO, industry, or bespoke in-house standards -- into the agent's context, ensuring every line of generated code meets your defined bar. There is no post-processing or manual review required for standards compliance.

AI Code Skills integrates with all major LLM-based coding agents including Claude, GPT, GitHub Copilot, and any agent that supports skills packs or API-driven configuration. Our integration layer is agent-agnostic, so if your team uses multiple agents, you can enforce the same standards across all of them.

Absolutely. While we provide 50+ pre-built standards packs covering frameworks like ISO 25010, OWASP, PSR-12, and PEP 8, you can also define entirely bespoke rulesets that reflect your organisation's unique coding conventions, naming standards, architectural patterns, and security requirements. Custom rulesets are managed through a straightforward configuration interface.

Drift detection monitors your AI agents' outputs over time to identify when generated code begins to deviate from your defined standards. This can happen due to model updates, context window changes, or prompt modifications. Our drift detection system alerts you immediately when compliance drops, provides root cause analysis, and suggests corrective actions to maintain zero-drift output.

Most teams are up and running within minutes. Choose a pre-built standards pack, connect your AI coding agent, and you are enforcing standards immediately. Custom rulesets take a bit longer to configure but can typically be deployed within a day. Our onboarding team is available to help with enterprise deployments and bespoke configuration requirements.

Your rules. Your agents. Zero drift.
