checkpoint

A command that records a project's current verification state and progress in a checkpoint document.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to record test counts, coverage, build status, code changes, completed tasks, blocking issues, and next steps before or after risky changes.
Why use it?
It preserves what has passed, what has failed, what changed, and what remains, which helps work continue safely across development sessions.

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 A, and why

checkpoint 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.

Origin

This is a copy

95% identical to checkpoint — 2 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

Checkpoint Command

Save current verification state and create progress checkpoint: $ARGUMENTS

Your Task

Create a snapshot of current progress including:

  1. Tests status - Which tests pass/fail
  2. Coverage - Current coverage metrics
  3. Build status - Build succeeds or errors
  4. Code changes - Summary of modifications
  5. Next steps - What remains to be done

Checkpoint Format

Checkpoint: [Timestamp]

Tests

  • Total: X
  • Passing: Y
  • Failing: Z
  • Coverage: XX%

Build

  • Status: ✅ Passing / ❌ Failing
  • Errors: [if any]

Changes Since Last Checkpoint

git diff --stat [last-checkpoint-commit]

Completed Tasks

  • Task 1
  • Task 2
  • Task 3 (in progress)

Blocking Issues

Next Steps

Usage with Verification Loop

Checkpoints integrate with the verification loop:

/plan → implement → /checkpoint → /verify → /checkpoint → implement → ...

Use checkpoints to:

  • Save state before risky changes
  • Track progress through phases
  • Enable rollback if needed
  • Document verification points

TIP: Create checkpoints at natural breakpoints: after each phase, before major refactoring, after fixing critical bugs.

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.

checkpoint is a command published in the GitHub repository fmflurry/settings-opencode (172 stars, last pushed 19d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 6 tokens to every session and 328 once invoked, about $0.0000 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 95% identical to checkpoint, differing in 2 lines, and is treated as a copy.
