extract-conventions

extract-conventions is a command for Claude Code from AcKeskin/contexture. It costs 40 tokens per session (292 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that observes how a codebase is written and records its recurring conventions in a project rules file. Conventions are patterns such as naming, imports, comments, and coding style.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it on a directory, module, or programming language to review detected conventions and save the ones you accept.
Why use it?
It helps new changes match the existing code instead of applying generic or conflicting styles.

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

extract-conventions 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

Run the extract-conventions skill for the current context.

/extract-conventions <scope> observes a scope (a directory, module, or language) and authors a project-tier conventions.md capturing its dominant, confidently-observed conventions. Examples:

  • /extract-conventions — prompts for a scope.
  • /extract-conventions src/auth/ — extracts conventions from that subtree.
  • /extract-conventions csharp — extracts the C# conventions across the project.

The skill samples representative files, detects mechanical conventions deterministically (case style, prefixes, import ordering) and semantic conventions by model judgment (comment style, idioms — flagged lower-confidence), presents them grouped by category with evidence and confidence, and writes nothing until you accept/edit/reject per category. On accept it writes <project>/.claude/rules/<lang>/conventions.md (project rule tier), delegating the idiomatic prose to the scope's language-pro agent. A convention that contradicts a shipped universal rule is flagged at confirm time — never silently overridden.

Mode A only — never auto-fires. See ~/.claude/skills/extract-conventions/SKILL.md for the full procedure.

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.
