squirrel-click

squirrel-click is a command for Claude Code from kubalajiri/claude-squirrel. It costs 20 tokens per session (437 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that lets users dismiss a reminder by clicking its terminal link when the terminal supports clickable links.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run the reminder's click-to-acknowledge action; use the squirrel-done command where terminal links cannot be clicked.
Why use it?
It starts a temporary local listener only when needed, while explaining that clicking opens a browser and requires a local server.

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

squirrel-click 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 8d 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

Run this exact command with the Bash tool and show the user its output verbatim:

sh "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/squirrel.sh" --click "$ARGUMENTS"

Read the reply out — it tells the user whether their terminal can actually follow the link. Claude Code currently passes OSC-8 hyperlinks through to IDE terminals (VS Code, Cursor) and not to standalone ones like iTerm2 or Konsole. On a terminal that cannot follow them, no listener is started at all, deliberately: a socket nobody can click is pure cost. /squirrel-done works everywhere and is the answer there.

Say these three things before turning it on:

  1. A local web server is involved. It binds 127.0.0.1 on a random port, is reachable only from this machine, and needs an unguessable token in the URL. It starts only once a segment actually has click=ack, and exits by itself after clickIdleSeconds (30 min) of nothing clicking it.
  2. Clicking opens a browser tab. A hyperlink is the only interactivity a terminal offers, and following one means the browser. The tab shows a small page saying what happened and closes itself where the browser allows. This cannot be engineered away — if that would annoy them, they should not enable it.
  3. It can only acknowledge or snooze. The listener understands exactly those two verbs against segment ids already in their config. It cannot run commands.

To make a reminder clickable, it needs ack=on and a click action:

/squirrel-custom set water click=ack
/squirrel-custom set break click=snooze:15

/squirrel-click off stops new links being emitted; any running listener exits when it next goes idle.

Do not do anything else.

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.
