upgrade-astrophotography-processing

upgrade-astrophotography-processing is a command for GitHub Copilot from mickpletcher/AI-Skills. It costs 29 tokens per session (4,859 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command for upgrading an astrophotography-processing skill, which helps work with images of the night sky.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for inspecting and improving the skill, adding diagnostic tools and approved tool connections, and checking image-processing results before and after changes.
Why use it?
It provides a staged implementation plan instead of requiring the agent to change a complex skill all at once. It also calls for tests and a report after each phase.

Command for GitHub Copilot

Written for GitHub Copilot: a Copilot chat mode or prompt. Also seen: agent in frontmatter.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is python3 claude/skills/astrophotography-processing/scripts/audit_dataset.py --help.

Good fit It is for inspecting and improving the skill, adding diagnostic tools and approved tool connections, and checking image-processing results before and after changes.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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

upgrade-astrophotography-processing 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 2d 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.

Upgrade the astrophotography-processing skill

Act as the implementation agent for the existing Claude skill at claude/skills/astrophotography-processing/.

Read this entire prompt before editing. Inspect the repository and current files first. Do not assume that the working tree is clean or that the skill still matches the baseline described here.

How to invoke this prompt

Run this prompt from GitHub Copilot Chat in agent mode with:

/upgrade-astrophotography-processing phase=1

Replace phase=1 with the phase to implement. If no phase is supplied, inspect the repository, report current status, and recommend the next incomplete phase without changing files.

Implement one phase at a time unless the user explicitly requests multiple phases. At the end of each phase, run the relevant tests and report changed files, validation results, assumptions, and remaining work.

Primary objective

Turn the skill from a broad advisory router into an evidence-driven astrophotography copilot that can safely inspect datasets, produce diagnostic artifacts, recommend processing workflows, invoke approved external tools, and validate before-and-after results.

Keep Claude as the reasoning, workflow-selection, diagnosis, and quality-control layer. Reuse established astronomical processing engines rather than attempting to recreate PixInsight, Siril, Astro Pixel Processor, or DeepSkyStacker.

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.
