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

skill-forge CLAUDE.md 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 6d 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

CLAUDE.md — skill-forge

Read CONTEXT.md for project vocabulary. Read AGENTS.md for available skills and scripts.

Identity

This is a self-improving skill collection with two objectives: (1) make itself better each cycle, (2) produce skills that earn stars. The meta-agent in root SKILL.md orchestrates discovery, creation, routing, and improvement.

Key Facts

  • Skills are in skills/ directory, each with a SKILL.md
  • Memory/state persists in memory/*.json (indexed via scripts/index-memory.js)
  • Quality validation: node scripts/validate-skill.js skills/<name> — must pass with 0 warnings
  • Self-check runs after every action (Phase 5 in root SKILL.md)
  • Self-improvement: node scripts/skillopt.js tracks outcomes and proposes prompt deltas
  • Routing: node scripts/route-task.js "task" — TF-IDF semantic matching with compound skills
  • Publishing target: GitHub under Adit-Jain-srm org
  • Install: npx skills@latest add Adit-Jain-srm/skill-forge

When Modifying

  • Never ship a skill without validation passing (0 warnings)
  • Run node tests/run-tests.js after any structural change (must pass all 98 tests)
  • Always update CONTEXT.md if adding new domain terms
  • Learnings go in memory/learnings.json and must change BEHAVIOR not just exist
  • After using a skill, record outcome: node scripts/skillopt.js --record --skill <name> --task "..." --outcome <good|poor|mixed>
  • README frames skills as PROBLEMS not features

Reasoning Approach

When making decisions about skill creation, routing, or improvement:

  1. State the specific problem being solved (not vague goals)
  2. Consider what already exists (check memory/learnings.json and indexed-learnings.json)
  3. Validate against the best (not "good enough" — compare to top performers)
  4. Prove the result works (run tests, show evidence, never claim without verification)
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.
