make

A command for refreshing, reconfiguring, or extending the AI coding harness stored in a project's .claude folder.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to make a fresh harness, update an existing one, or run a non-interactive CI configuration for selected coding assistants.
Why use it?
It provides a guided way to update the project's assistant setup when the project or preferred workflow changes.

Getting it into your agent

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

make 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 — 761 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/harness-maker:make

Refresh, reconfigure, or extend the project's harness at <cwd>/.claude/. Asks the user what they want to do before invoking the CLI.

Procedure

You (Claude) act as the orchestrator. Follow these steps:

0. CI / test mode detection

If the prompt text contains --ci, extract inline params and skip all AskQuestion (Cursor) / AskUserQuestion (Claude Code) calls. Parse preset=, locale=, dev_mode=, targets= from the prompt; use defaults Side / en / task / claude-code for any that are absent. Skip the live locale question and jump directly to section 5 (Dispatch → Fresh install or Update, depending on whether .claude/harness.yaml exists).

Example invocation:

/harness-maker:make --ci preset=Side locale=en dev_mode=task targets=claude-code,cursor,codex

0.5. --reinterview shortcut

If the prompt text contains --reinterview (and is not --ci), the user wants a full interactive reconfigure. Do not pass --reinterview through to the CLI — the CLI's interactive interview reads from stdin, which falls back to autoloop defaults in the slash-command context (no TTY). Instead, skip the menu in section 3 and jump straight to the Full reconfigure branch in section 5, which drives AskQuestion (Cursor) / AskUserQuestion (Claude Code) here in the slash command and dispatches with collected --preset / --locale / --dev-mode / --targets flags.

1. Choose live locale

Default is en, but the first interactive decision must be the user's live onboarding language. Ask this before profile detection, preset selection, dev_mode, targets, or any setup confirmation. All subsequent live onboarding prose, question text, option labels, trade-off explanations, and decision summaries must use the selected locale. Persisted generated documents may still follow their own template rules; this section controls the live setup conversation.

Use AskQuestion (Cursor) / AskUserQuestion (Claude Code):

  • English (en) — default; best-supported public-plugin baseline.
  • Korean (ko) — use Korean for the rest of this onboarding flow.
  • Other locale tag — accept a free-text BCP-47-style tag; if no localized template exists, explain that runtime generated text may fall back to English.

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.

make is a command published in the GitHub repository Ecro/harness-maker (4 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 10,856 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 2026-08-31.
