Command for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: argument-hint in frontmatter.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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

babysit 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 9d 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.

Setup

The user invokes this skill with an optional PR number or URL. Parse in this order and stop at the first match:

  1. Full PR URL: if the user's text contains https?://github\.com/[^/\s]+/[^/\s]+/pull/\d+, capture the URL.
  2. Explicit PR token: match (?:PR|pr|pull request)\s*#?(\d+) or a bare #(\d+) in the user's text.
  3. Bare numeric argument: only when the complete text is a positive integer without surrounding prose.
  4. None of the above: operate on the PR for the current branch.

All helper logic lives in one CLI, ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT:-${CURSOR_PLUGIN_ROOT}}/scripts/pr_babysit_cli.py (or under ${CURSOR_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/ in Cursor), invoked as python3 "<path>" <subcommand>. Subcommands: review, failed-logs, commit-push, reply, comment.

Sentinels

The skill uses two sentinels with visible footer lines.

Addressed sentinel: <sub>🤖 <code>pr-babysit:addressed v1 [email protected]</code></sub>. Appended on its own line at the end of every reply the skill posts so re-runs know which threads and review-body comments are already handled. Dedupe also recognizes legacy cb-babysit:addressed v1 and babysit-pr:addressed v1 prefixes from prior babysit implementations.

Follow-up sentinel: <sub>🤖 <code>pr-babysit:followup v1 [email protected]</code></sub>. Attached to replies that defer an out-of-scope comment as a tracked follow-up. The sentinel is additive: the reply and comment subcommands still append the addressed sentinel at the end.

Sentinel recency rules. The script emits a per-thread activityState with three values. Step 6a owns the handling rules for each state.

  • active: no sentinel yet, OR at least one human commented after the last sentinel.
  • uncertain: a sentinel exists AND one or more bot comments appeared after it. The thread carries a postSentinelBotComments array listing EVERY such comment.
  • addressed: the sentinel is the newest relevant activity on the thread.

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.
