snek.diff

A command that displays changes in a Git repository, the system developers use to track code versions. It can show either unstaged changes, staged changes, or changes in one file.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review changed files, see additions and removals, and get a plain explanation of what the changes are intended to do.
Why use it?
It makes code edits easier to inspect and understand before they are committed.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

snek.diff 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

Git Diff

Show git diff and optionally explain the changes.

Usage

User can specify:

  • --staged to show staged changes
  • --file PATH to show diff for specific file
  • No args shows unstaged changes

Steps

  1. Get the diff:
# Unstaged changes
.snek/scripts/get-git-diff.sh

# Staged changes
.snek/scripts/get-git-diff.sh --staged

# Specific file
.snek/scripts/get-git-diff.sh --file "/path/to/file"
  1. Display the diff output.

  2. If user asks for explanation, summarize:

    • What files changed
    • Nature of changes (additions, removals, modifications)
    • Key code changes and their purpose
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.
