explain-action

explain-action is a command for coding agents from QuickerHub/quicker-rpc. It costs 14 tokens per session (194 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only walkthrough of a Quicker action program, which is an automated sequence of steps. It explains the program's purpose, variables, step order, and how the steps connect.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect a Quicker action, explain its inputs and outputs, and clarify the settings that connect its steps.
Why use it?
It helps you understand an existing automation without changing or running it. This is useful when the action contains unfamiliar steps or 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

explain-action 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 4d 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

Explain the Quicker action matching: $ARGUMENTS (or the @-mentioned action when arguments are empty).

Read-only — do not patch, run, debug, or write files.

  1. Resolve the action/subprogram id (qkrpc_action_query / get or subprogram get).
  2. Read program body from disk (workspace_program read_data) or get sync when needed.
  3. Summarize: purpose, variables, step flow (module keys + key params), and non-obvious wiring.

Use plain language; no markdown tables. Cite step_runner_get when module param names matter.

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.
