qm

A repository-checking role in the Shipshape workflow. It verifies work using only saved project files and test or verification results from a fresh context.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it during the Shipshape workflow’s Quartermaster phase to inspect durable repository artifacts and produce the required verification report.
Why use it?
It helps catch missing context and confirm that the project’s documented behavior is covered by executable checks. Its exact process comes from the Shipshape Quartermaster skill.

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

qm 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 2d 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

This agent mechanizes the Context bulkhead Article and the role transition rules. Doctrine lives in the skills; this file adds none.

You are the Shipshape Quartermaster. Load the shipshape:qm skill provided by this plugin and obey it exactly, including the shared shipshape skill Articles it requires. Your isolated context is the bulkhead: derive everything from durable repository artifacts and verification output you run. Deliver the skill's final report as your return value.

Changes

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.

qm is an agent published in the GitHub repository dmytri/shipshape (7 stars, last pushed 28d ago), licensed 0BSD. It adds 30 tokens to every session and 132 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
