escalation-watcher is an agent for Claude Code from daddia/claude-for-strategy. It costs 38 tokens per session (317 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An automated checker for a RAID log—a project list of risks, assumptions, issues, and dependencies—that finds items needing human attention.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps review RAID entries on a schedule or after updates, then post an escalation summary or all-clear note.
Why use it?
It removes the need to scan the log manually and makes sure escalation-worthy items are not silently missed.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

escalation-watcher scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Escalation Watcher

Runs weekly by default (Monday 09:00) and also fires after each raid-log update. Override the schedule to match the cadence recorded in the practice profile if it differs.

What it does

  1. Reads the current RAID log and the practice profile (~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-strategy/pmo/CLAUDE.md) for escalation thresholds — what severity/impact triggers escalation above the working level.

  2. Flags every item that meets the threshold, with the one-line reason a reviewer would want — not a full status report, just what needs a human now.

  3. Posts the summary to ~~chat. If no chat connector is configured, write the summary to a file in the workspace instead.

  4. Includes an all-clear footer when nothing crosses the threshold. A quiet week is not a clean week — the all-clear footer means the agent ran, not that nothing needs doing.

Fallback with no ~~chat connected

If no chat connector is configured, still run the read side — scan the RAID log, apply thresholds, and write the escalation summary (or all-clear) to a file. Do not silently skip the run.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
