cpv-main-menu

cpv-main-menu is a command for coding agents from Emasoft/claude-plugins-validation. It costs 36 tokens per session (1,044 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that opens an interactive menu for the CPV tools in a coding assistant. The menu groups commands for checking, fixing, optimizing, diagnosing, updating, creating, publishing, and managing work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to browse and launch CPV actions, ask for help, or exit from the menu.
Why use it?
It gives one place to find the available CPV commands without memorizing each command name.

Command

Installs and runs on its own, but its text points at files inside its plugin — anything it tells you to read at a ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} path is only there once the plugin is installed. Installing the plugin gets both.

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

cpv-main-menu 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 3d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 81 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/cpv-main-menu — CPV Main Menu

One inline entry point to every CPV command, skill, and agent, shown as a post-turn Stop-hook menu (rendered via systemMessage, so it never enters the transcript or prompt cache). Every menu has a 0 — Cancel / Exit row; sub-menus also have B — Back.

The full menu tree AND the fixed key→action routing map are the single source of truth in menu-tree.md (cpv-main-menu-skill, auto-loaded). Do NOT restate the menu rows or the key map here — read them there.

Categories (the top menu — full rows + routing live in menu-tree.md)

Validate · Fix · Optimize for Cache · Diagnose · Update · Create · Publish & Migrate · Manage — plus H (Help / About), A (Ask the agent), 0 (Cancel / Exit).

Workflow (runs inline in the main session — no subagent fork)

  1. Queue the top menu. One Bash call: export CPV_SKILL_MENUS_DIR to the skill's skill-menus/ dir, then python "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/print_menu.py" fixed 5 >/dev/null 2>&1 (loads the pre-baked skill-menus/05-main.json). Then END THE TURN emitting ZERO chat text — the claude-menu-system Stop hook renders the menu via systemMessage, so it costs no context. NEVER print the menu inline; NEVER use Write/Edit to stage a spec (print_menu.py loads it by index — that is why the Bash card stays tiny and silent).
  2. Wait for the user's key (number or letter, case-insensitive).
  3. 0 at any level → reply Cancelled — no actions taken. and stop. B in a sub-menu → re-queue the parent menu.
  4. Category key → look up its action_id in menu-tree.md, run that sub-menu's heredoc recipe, and end the turn silently.
  5. Leaf key → ask any required arguments as plain-text questions, then execute that command's workflow inline (read its .md, run its bash) — actually run it, don't just name it. Every validator call goes through python "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/remote_validation.py" <alias> — never the plugin-cache scripts directly.
  6. Report the compact summary + report-file path, then run the §3.99 "do something else?" heredoc (or the §3.10 post-validate menu for Validate leaves) and end silently. 0Done.

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.
