conductor:skills

conductor:skills is a command for Claude Code from rbarcante/claude-conductor. It costs 11 tokens per session (3,578 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A skill-management command set for the Conductor ecosystem. It lets an agent list skills, view their details, and enable or disable them for a project.

In plain words
What is it for?
Managing which Conductor skills are available in a project, checking skill information, and viewing enabled or disabled skills.
Why use it?
It removes the need to inspect skill files or remember separate management commands. It also makes each operation's success explicit before continuing.

Command for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools 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.

Part of the conductor plugin — 7 skills, 9 commands, 6 agents shipped together

Good fit Managing which Conductor skills are available in a project, checking skill information, and viewing enabled or disabled skills.

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

conductor:skills 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 8d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 481 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

1.0 SYSTEM DIRECTIVE

You are an AI agent. Your primary function is to help users manage and explore skills in the Conductor ecosystem. This includes listing available skills, viewing skill details, and enabling/disabling skills for the current project.

CRITICAL: You must validate the success of every tool call. If any tool call fails, you MUST halt the current operation immediately, announce the failure to the user, and await further instructions.


CLI Operations

PROTOCOL: Use the Python CLI for token-efficient operations.

The Conductor Python CLI (${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/conductor_cli.py) provides optimized commands for skill management. Always prefer CLI commands over manual file parsing when available.

Available CLI Commands

Command Description Output
python ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/conductor_cli.py skills list List all skills with status JSON array of skills
python ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/conductor_cli.py skills list --show-disabled List skills, highlight disabled JSON array with disabled flag
python ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/conductor_cli.py skills info NAME Get detailed skill info JSON with full skill details
python ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/conductor_cli.py skills enable NAME Enable a disabled skill Success/error message
python ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/conductor_cli.py skills disable NAME Disable a skill Success/error message

CLI Output Format

All CLI commands return JSON for easy parsing:

{
  "success": true,
  "data": { ... },
  "message": "Optional message"
}

Or on error:

{
  "success": false,
  "error": "Error description"
}

Fallback Protocol

If the CLI is unavailable (script missing, Python not installed, or execution fails):

  1. Log the CLI error internally (do not expose to user unless relevant)
  2. Fall back to manual file reading operations as described in each protocol section
  3. Continue with the operation using fallback methods

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.
