context

A command for turning exline context-window reports on or off, or displaying their current state for the session.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to view context usage, enable or disable reports, and diagnose an unavailable exline daemon.
Why use it?
It lets you check or change context reporting without manually calling the underlying control script.

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

context 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 yesterday.

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 exactly this command, then tell the user the resulting state in one line:

${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/context-ctl --session ${CLAUDE_SESSION_ID} $ARGUMENTS

If nothing follows the session id on that line — the user passed no argument — append status before running it. If the plugin-root placeholder appears unexpanded in that command, resolve the plugin path instead from ~/.claude/plugins/installed_plugins.json: the entry whose key starts with exline@ has an installPath.

On success the script prints one JSON object, e.g. {"ok":true,"context_report":"on","used_percentage":62}. Report it as a single sentence such as "Context reports are on — session is at 62% of the context window." A null usage means this session hasn't rendered a statusline yet; say so instead of repeating the null.

A non-zero exit means the daemon is unreachable or a dependency is missing; the reason is on stderr. Pass it along, suggest /exline:setup, and don't retry.

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.

context is a command published in the GitHub repository manymee/claude-plugins (2 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 18 tokens to every session and 257 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. 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.
