About the project

Claude Octopus is an orchestration project that sends research, design, and coding tasks to Claude Code and other AI model providers so their results can be compared. Developers use it for multi-model work, disagreement detection, reviews, persistent context, and an optional workflow that moves from discovery through delivery. The catalogue entries are its commands, skills, agents, instructions, hooks, plugins, and settings.

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

quick 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.

Origin

This is a copy

92% identical to octo-quick — 4 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

Quick Mode Command

Your first output line MUST be: 🐙 Octopus Quick Mode

Execute ad-hoc tasks without multi-AI orchestration overhead.

Usage

/octo:quick "<task description>"

When to Use

Perfect for:

  • Bug fixes with known solutions
  • Configuration updates
  • Small refactorings
  • Documentation fixes
  • Dependency updates
  • Typo corrections

NOT for:

  • New features
  • Architecture changes
  • Security-sensitive work
  • Tasks requiring research

Examples

/octo:quick "fix typo in README"
/octo:quick "update Next.js to v15"
/octo:quick "remove console.log statements"
/octo:quick "add error handling to login function"

What It Does

  1. Directly implements the change
  2. Creates atomic commit
  3. Updates state
  4. Generates summary

Skips: Research, planning, multi-AI validation

Cost

Quick mode only uses Claude (included with Claude Code). No external provider costs.

When to Escalate

If the task becomes complex:

  • Use /octo:discover for research
  • Use /octo:define for planning
  • Use /octo:develop for building
  • Use /octo:deliver for validation
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.
