ship

ship is a command for Claude Code from akka/ai-marketplace. It costs 33 tokens per session (1,226 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A release-gating command that checks the required conditions before a code change is reviewed or released, then runs the organization’s shipping steps if they pass.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare a branch for review or deploy an approved change, depending on whether the target is `review` or `release`.
Why use it?
It prevents review or release steps from running when required checks have failed. It also gathers the relevant checks in one run.

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

ship 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 9d 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.

User Input

$ARGUMENTS

You MUST consider the user input before proceeding.

Purpose

/akka:ship runs the auditors for every applicable exit condition in scope for the requested ship target, and on pass runs the ship steps the organization declared for that target. The target argument is REQUIRED. Two targets are accepted:

  • review — runs the auditors for every applicable exit condition tagged author or review. On pass, runs the organization's review ship steps (typically push the branch and open a pull request).
  • release — runs the auditors for every applicable exit condition at any tier (author, review, and release). On pass, runs the organization's release ship steps (typically deploy to production).

Author-time is a precondition, not a ship target. There is no /akka:ship author.

The author-time conditions are evaluated first, on their own, before any higher-tier auditor is given a chance. In À la carte mode the gate is advisory like every other condition: the run continues, every in-scope tier is evaluated, and the user gets the complete picture to override against.

In Enforced mode a ship that fails them stops right there — the review-time and release-time checks never run, so a ship that cannot succeed does not first spend minutes on scanning, dynamic analysis, or live-service probes. The user sees only the author-time verdict, which is the only one that has been computed.

An active waiver satisfies the precondition exactly as it satisfies any other condition — a waiver is a person's time-bound, recorded acceptance, not a bypass.

Outline

  1. Parse the target from $ARGUMENTS. Read the first argument. It MUST be review or release. If missing, invalid, or anything else, stop and tell the user: "/akka:ship requires an explicit target: review or release. For example: /akka:ship review." Do not call the CLI.

  2. Invoke the CLI. Run akka specify ship <target> in the project directory (via the shell). Capture the output. The CLI:

    • Runs the author-time auditors first; in Enforced mode stops there if any of them blocks.
    • Otherwise runs the auditors for every remaining applicable exit condition in scope for the target.
    • Reports the verdict (READY_TO_SHIP or NOT_READY).
    • In À la carte mode, records an explicit override and proceeds even when the verdict is NOT_READY.
    • In Enforced mode, refuses to run any ship steps unless the verdict is READY_TO_SHIP.
    • Writes a conformance receipt recording which target was shipped, what was verified, and any conditions that remained open with their reasons.

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.
