REFERENCES.template

REFERENCES.template is a command for coding agents from Fomo-Driven-Development/strategic-claude-base. It costs 0 tokens per session (1,905 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command template for documenting where a reference implementation and the main project are located, along with their directories, files, patterns, examples, and documentation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to record reference codebases, important files, architecture patterns, implementation examples, and documentation locations.
Why use it?
It gives developers a consistent map for comparing a project with an existing implementation instead of searching through scattered notes.

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

REFERENCES.template 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 4d 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.

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.

REFERENCES.template is a command published in the GitHub repository Fomo-Driven-Development/strategic-claude-base (2 stars, last pushed 9mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 1,905 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.
