squirrel-setup

squirrel-setup is a command for coding agents from kubalajiri/claude-squirrel. It costs 11 tokens per session (116 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that installs the Squirrel status line into Claude Code settings. Squirrel is the status-line tool referenced by the command.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when setting up Squirrel in Claude Code. After installation, the account can be labelled with `/squirrel-nick <name>`.
Why use it?
It sets up the status line and enables the plugin's activity-state hooks without requiring manual configuration. The status line may take a moment to appear.

Command

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

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

squirrel-setup 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 5d 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 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/squirrel.sh" --setup "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}"

Then tell the user, in at most three lines: the status line is active (it may take a moment to appear), the activity-state hooks are active because the plugin is installed, and they can label this account with /squirrel-nick <name>. Do not do anything else.

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.
