translate

translate is a command for Claude Code from grcengineering/companion. It costs 14 tokens per session (148 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command for explaining a governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) problem through a pattern from another field. It also requires explaining where that comparison stops being useful.

In plain words
What is it for?
Translating an identified GRC sticking point into a learning example, explaining the original pattern, and applying the comparison to a situation.
Why use it?
It offers learners a different way to understand a difficult GRC idea while keeping the comparison from being mistaken for operational advice.

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

translate 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 1mo 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 it actually says

Cross-Domain Translator Command

Use when the learner needs a different lens.

Flow

  1. Name the GRC stuck point.
  2. Pick one adjacent-domain pattern.
  3. Explain the native pattern.
  4. Translate it into GRC.
  5. Name where the metaphor breaks.
  6. Ask the learner to apply the lens to their situation.

Boundary

The metaphor is for learning. It must not become operational advice.

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.
