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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.01059	$0.01059
Opus 5.5	$0.00424	$0.00424
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00212	$0.00212

Security

Grade B, and why

claude-plugin-dashboard copilot-instructions.md scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 2mo 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.

.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

Claude Code Plugin Dashboard - AI Coding Guidelines

Project Overview

This is an interactive CLI dashboard for managing Claude Code plugins, built with Ink (React for CLI). It provides both an interactive TUI and command-line interface for browsing, installing, and managing plugins from multiple marketplaces.

Architecture

Framework: Ink + React for terminal UI
Language: TypeScript with ES modules
State Management: useReducer pattern with actions
Data Sources: Aggregates plugin data from multiple JSON files in ~/.claude/ directory
Plugin ID Format: "name@marketplace" (e.g., "context7@claude-plugins-official")

Key Directories & Files

source/app.tsx - Main app component with reducer and state management
source/cli.tsx - CLI entry point supporting both interactive and command modes
source/services/ - Data services (pluginService, settingsService, pluginActionsService, fileService)
source/components/ - Reusable UI components (PluginList, SearchInput, TabBar, etc.)
source/tabs/ - Tab components (DiscoverTab, EnabledTab, InstalledTab, etc.)
source/types/index.ts - TypeScript interfaces for all data structures
source/utils/paths.ts - Cross-platform file path constants for ~/.claude/ directory

Development Workflows

Build & Run

pnpm install          # Install dependencies
pnpm build            # Compile TypeScript to dist/
pnpm dev              # Watch mode compilation
pnpm start            # Run CLI (node dist/cli.js)
pnpm link             # Build and link globally for testing

Testing

pnpm test             # Vitest in watch mode
pnpm test:run         # Run tests once
pnpm test:coverage    # Run with coverage report

E2E Testing

# From e2e/ directory using pytest + pexpect
~/.local/pipx/venvs/pytest/bin/pytest e2e/ -v

Code Quality

pnpm prettier         # Format all code

Data Flow & State Management

Reducer Actions: Use appReducer in app.tsx for all state changes
Focus Zones: Navigation uses tabbar, search, list zones (errors tab lacks search)
Data Loading: Services aggregate data from:
- ~/.claude/marketplaces/{marketplace}/marketplace.json
- ~/.claude/plugins/installed_plugins.json
- ~/.claude/settings.json
- ~/.claude/plugins/install-counts-cache.json

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.
