A budget stated in a prompt is advisory — the model can forget it mid-session and prompt injection can override it. This skill makes the budget deterministic: every checkout and cart mutation goes through one audited wrapper (dd-guard.sh) that prices the cart, checks the policy, and refuses out-of-policy actions with a machine exit code. The companion PreToolUse hook (doordash-spend-guard hook component) denies raw dd-cli order checkout-url / dd-cli cart add-items calls that try to bypass the wrapper.
Doordash Spend Guard is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the cli-builders sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/doordash-spend-guard/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when the user wants budget limits on agent food ordering, asks "how much have I spent on DoorDash", wants to set spending caps, or whenever building carts / checking out with dd-cli while this skill is installed. Pairs with a PreToolUse hook that denies raw dd-cli checkout calls that bypass the wrapper.
