generate-extra

generate-extra is a command for Claude Code from alberduris/skills. It costs 25 tokens per session (257 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command for making a compact newspaper-style extra edition about one subject. It produces a short, urgent bulletin with a headline, one detailed story, and no secondary sections.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps create a tightly edited summary or breaking-news-style page from verified facts, using the project's newspaper template and styles.
Why use it?
It removes filler and keeps the essential information above the fold, meaning visible without scrolling.

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

generate-extra 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 6d 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

Load the newspaper-explainer skill. Read ./templates/broadsheet.html and ./references/css-patterns.md to absorb the canonical CSS class vocabulary and palette, but generate a REDUCED structure. Then generate an EXTRA edition for: $@

Extra edition output is ALWAYS opt-in — only generate when this command is invoked or the user explicitly asks for an extra, bulletin, or summary edition. The extra edition is the newspaper equivalent of a wire dispatch: one subject, maximum density, no filler.

The structure is strictly MASTHEAD (with "EXTRA EDITION" in the edition field) + TICKER (single scrolling headline) + ONE LEAD STORY (with drop cap, inset box, pull quote, column text — the full lead treatment) + COLOPHON. No sidebar, no secondary stories, no letters, no dispatch board. Everything that matters fits above the fold. The narrative should be telegraphic — authoritative, compressed, every sentence carrying information.

Gather facts with the same rigor as a full edition. NEVER EVER fabricate. Write to ~/.agent/newspapers/ and open in the browser.

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.
