eliniscan:update

A command for checking whether eliniscan has a newer version on GitHub and installing it after user confirmation. eliniscan is the software being updated.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect the local version, compare it with GitHub, and update eliniscan when the user approves.
Why use it?
It avoids manually comparing installed and latest versions and adds a confirmation step before changing the installation.

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 D, and why

eliniscan:update scanned grade D with 3 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.

Reads agent configuration directoriesmediumAgent snooping

.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

cat ~/.claude/eliniscan/package.json 2>/dev/null | grep '"version"' | head -1

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

rm -rf /tmp/eliniscan-update

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

What it actually says

cat ~/.claude/eliniscan/package.json 2>/dev/null | grep '"version"' | head -1

If no package.json found, say version is unknown.

STEP 2: Check latest version on GitHub

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AlpYenigun/eliniscan/main/package.json | grep '"version"' | head -1

STEP 3: Compare versions

If same version, display:

✓ eliniscan is up to date (v{version})

If different (or unknown local), display:

eliniscan update available: {current} → {latest}

Then ask user to confirm.

STEP 4: Update (after user confirms)

Run these commands:

rm -rf /tmp/eliniscan-update
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/AlpYenigun/eliniscan.git /tmp/eliniscan-update 2>/dev/null
cd /tmp/eliniscan-update && node scripts/install.js
cp /tmp/eliniscan-update/package.json ~/.claude/eliniscan/package.json
rm -rf /tmp/eliniscan-update

STEP 5: Display result

✓ eliniscan updated to v{version}

  Restart Claude Code to use the new version.
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.
