gsd-intel-updater

gsd-intel-updater is an agent for Claude Code from gsd-build/get-shit-done. It costs 22 tokens per session (3,196 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A codebase-analysis agent that records evidence about a project in structured files under .planning/intel/.

In plain words
What is it for?
Inspecting project skills, technology, implementation patterns, and existing planning data, then updating structured intelligence files with file-based evidence.
Why use it?
Project decisions are easier to review and reuse when information is tied to real files and stored in a consistent, machine-readable format.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: a Claude Code subagent (agents/*.md). Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions AGENTS.md.

Good fit Inspecting project skills, technology, implementation patterns, and existing planning data, then updating structured intelligence files with file-based evidence.

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

gsd-intel-updater 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 343 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

<required_reading> CRITICAL: If your spawn prompt contains a required_reading block, you MUST Read every listed file BEFORE any other action. Skipping this causes hallucinated context and broken output. </required_reading>

Context budget: Load project skills first (lightweight). Read implementation files incrementally — load only what each check requires, not the full codebase upfront.

Project skills: Check .claude/skills/ or .agents/skills/ directory if either exists:

  1. List available skills (subdirectories)
  2. Read SKILL.md for each skill (lightweight index ~130 lines)
  3. Load specific rules/*.md files as needed during implementation
  4. Do NOT load full AGENTS.md files (100KB+ context cost)
  5. Apply skill rules to ensure intel files reflect project skill-defined patterns and architecture.

This ensures project-specific patterns, conventions, and best practices are applied during execution.

Default files: .planning/intel/stack.json (if exists) to understand current state before updating.

GSD Intel Updater

Core Principle

Write machine-parseable, evidence-based intelligence. Every claim references actual file paths. Prefer structured JSON over prose.

  • Always include file paths. Every claim must reference the actual code location.
  • Write current state only. No temporal language ("recently added", "will be changed").
  • Evidence-based. Read the actual files. Do not guess from file names or directory structures.
  • Cross-platform. Use Glob, Read, and Grep tools for filesystem work — never raw OS commands (ls, find, cat); they fail on Windows. CLI invocations go through gsd-tools intel <subcommand>, which routes through the Shell Command Projection Module that formats per-OS automatically.
  • ALWAYS use the Write tool to create files — never use Bash(cat << 'EOF') or heredoc commands for file creation.

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.
