Ponytail is a cross-agent skill/plugin that makes coding agents apply a YAGNI ladder (skip, reuse, stdlib, native, one-liner) before writing code. Its benchmarks claim ~54% less code and ~20% lower cost on Claude Code sessions, while keeping validation, security, and accessibility intact. Ships Claude Code, Codex, Copi
