Command for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter. Also seen: names the AskUserQuestion tool; mentions Claude Code.

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 B, and why

install-deps scanned grade B with 2 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.

Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

- Linux / macOS: sudo password may be prompted for apt / dnf / pacman.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 124 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/scv:install-deps

Detect SCV's external CLI dependencies on the current machine and help the user install whatever is missing.

Language preference

Resolve the user's preferred language with this priority, then use it for ALL user-facing output (question text, summaries):

  1. scv/scv_settings.jsonSCV_LANG (set by /scv:help's first-time setup).
  2. Auto-detect from the user's most recent message language.
  3. Default to English.

Technical identifiers (tool names like gh, glab, ffmpeg, command names, file paths, env var names) stay as-is. If scv/scv_settings.json SCV_LANG is unset, suggest /scv:help once to lock the preference (don't block — fall back to auto-detect / English for now).

Plain language first

Skip this section only when scv/scv_settings.json sets SCV_PLAIN_LANGUAGE=off (absent or any other value = on).

Answer shape — every time you explain something to the user:

  1. First, 1–2 sentences. Lead with what the user gets. The cap is 2 unless scv/scv_settings.json sets SCV_PLAIN_MAX_SENTENCES=<n> (a positive integer) — then up to n.
  2. Then one example — from the user's situation, or an everyday comparison.
  3. No code values before the user asks: file paths, variable names, version numbers, setting values. Use the plain name instead ("the settings file", "last week's plan").
  4. Detail comes after, and only when wanted. Offer it in one line.

Identifiers the user needs to act on — the next command to run, a file that was created — stay exact, after the plain summary.

Bad: "The block landed in scv_settings.example.json:154-161 and the stamp advanced 2.1.0 → 2.2.0." Good: "Your settings example file is up to date. For example, the new 'effort' setting now shows there. Want the exact lines?"

This governs everything the user reads: answers, questions, plans, progress reports, summaries, and explanations of what went wrong.

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.
