os-install-check

os-install-check is a command for coding agents from kharmanskyi/open-steps. It costs 60 tokens per session (656 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Runs the Open Steps install check and reads the result back in plain words. Use it after installing the pack, when a report never appears, or when someone asks whether the install is sound. The script does the checking and sets the exit code. This command reports what the script printed and nothing else.

Command

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

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

os-install-check 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 today.

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

os-install-check

One job. Run the script, then say what it found. The script holds the truth. This command adds nothing to it and takes nothing away.

Language

The language the user speaks in this session, detected from the conversation - translate every label. File names, paths and setting names stay as they are.

Step 1 - run the script

bash "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/doctor.sh"

Keep the exit code. The last line of the report needs it.

If the script does not run at all, say so and stop there. Never describe a result you did not see.

Step 2 - read the result back

The script prints one label at the start of every line. Keep the four apart.

Label What it means How to report it
ok It looked, and the thing is right Good news
FAULT It looked, and the thing is wrong Bad news, in full
not checked It could not look Neither. Say nobody looked
fact It looked, and there is nothing to judge Neither. Just say it

Open with one sentence. The install is sound, or it is not. Take that from the exit code, not from your reading of the lines.

Then up to three lists, in this order. Drop any list that is empty.

  1. What is wrong. Every FAULT line. One line each, in the script's own words.
  2. What nobody looked at. Every not checked line. Say plainly that it was not checked.
  3. What is in place. Every ok line. Group them when there are many.

Add the fact lines where they help the reader. They are neither good news nor bad.

Close with the exit code and what it means:

0  no fault found
1  the skills
2  the routing block
3  the hooks
4  the kill switches
9  faults in more than one of those

Hard rules - these rules are the command

  1. Report what the script printed. Add nothing to it.
  2. Never soften a fault. A fault is reported in full, in its own line.
  3. Never turn a "not checked" into a yes. Never turn it into a no either.
  4. Never call the install sound while the exit code is not zero.
  5. Decide nothing. Judge nothing. The script already did both.
  6. Asked what to do next, repeat what the fault line says and stop there.

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.
