trex.project.init

A project-initialisation command for TRex-scaffolded Go projects. It checks whether the project has been properly renamed and is healthy to run.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for auditing .go, .yaml, and .md files for TRex template remnants and validating the project's working state.
Why use it?
Scaffolds often leave example names, contacts, server URLs, or unfinished comments behind. This command finds those leftovers and reports genuine setup problems while succeeding when the project is already correct.

Made for: Claude Code.

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

trex.project.init 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 yesterday.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 141 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Project Init

Validate that this TRex-spawned project is in a healthy, working state. This command is idempotent — it succeeds if everything is already running and correct, and only fails if something is genuinely broken.

Use the TodoWrite tool to track each phase as you work through it.

Phase 1: Naming Consistency Audit

Scan all .go, .yaml, and .md files (skip go.sum) for template leftovers from the TRex scaffold. Flag any of the following:

Pattern Why It's Wrong
"My Service" or "My service" Placeholder title never renamed
"Dinosaur" or "dinosaur" (outside go.mod/go.sum imports) TRex example entity left behind
"rh-trex" in description strings or comments (import paths are fine) Template origin leaking into runtime
[email protected] Template default contact
api.openshift.com or api.stage.openshift.com in server URLs Template default servers
"template" in code comments suggesting unfinished customization Scaffold language not cleaned up
"placeholder" in comments Scaffold language not cleaned up
Stub TODO comments (e.g., // TODO: Add ... when needed) in otherwise empty files Empty scaffold files

Action: Report every finding with file, line number, and the problematic text. Do NOT auto-fix — present the findings to the user and ask how they want each category handled (rename, remove, or keep).

Phase 2: Dependency Resolution

go mod tidy

Verify no errors. If go.sum changes, that's fine — it means dependencies were stale.

Phase 3: Build the Binary

make binary

This must succeed with zero errors. If it fails:

  • Report the exact error output
  • Diagnose the root cause (missing dependency, type error, import cycle, etc.)
  • Ask the user before attempting any fix

Phase 4: Database Setup (Idempotent)

  1. Check if the PostgreSQL container is already running:
    docker ps --filter name=ambient-api-server-postgres --format "{{.Names}} {{.Status}}"

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.

trex.project.init is a command published in the GitHub repository ambient-code/platform (129 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 1,000 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
