lossless-agent-skills: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

lossless-agent-skills CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from lossless-group/lossless-agent-skills. It costs 1,125 tokens per session, scanned B, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for a shared library of coding-agent skills. They explain how skills are linked, kept separate from private settings and copied upstream code, and checked in a web browser.

In plain words
What is it for?
Maintaining and publishing shared skills, syncing skill links, handling private configuration and vendored code, and verifying changes with Playwright and a browser.
Why use it?
They prevent skills from being invisible, incorrectly triggered, or mixed together during updates. They also provide a repeatable way to verify browser-based work.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions Claude Code.

This is lossless-group/lossless-agent-skills's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on lossless-agent-skills itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything lossless-agent-skills configures →

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

lossless-agent-skills CLAUDE.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 10d 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.

Agent instructions for lossless-agent-skills

This repo is the shared skill library for The Lossless Group — one directory per skill, each with a top-level SKILL.md following the Agent Skills spec. It is public, and it is mounted into the anchor pseudomonorepo at context-v/skills/.

Claude Code only discovers a skill when it has its own direct-child symlink at ~/.claude/skills/<name>. A symlinked parent directory does not expose the skills nested inside it, so an authored-but-unlinked skill is invisible to every session.

bash ./sync-skills-symlinks.sh

Run it at session start (picks up skills added since last session) and again after authoring or editing any skill — newly-linked skills load in the next session, not the current one. Idempotent; never clobbers a non-symlink.

Two things that break discovery and are easy to miss:

  • The directory name must match the skill's frontmatter name:. A mismatch loads the skill without its description, so it never triggers.
  • Renaming a skill directory leaves a broken symlink behind. The sync script adds the new link but does not remove the stale one. Check with find ~/.claude/skills -maxdepth 1 -xtype l.

Public skills, private config

Skills here are published. Operator-specific particulars — firm names, workspace URLs, key relationships — live in a gitignored <skill>/config/private.json, documented by a committed config/private.example.json, and are read at runtime by instruction rather than by templating. lossless-crm-interface-guidelines/ is the reference implementation. Full pattern, including the pre-push audit grep, is in README.md.

Never inline a config value back into a SKILL.md. The moment a firm name or an instance URL lands in the public file, the skill has stopped being publishable.

Vendored upstream submodules — do not overlay them

chroma-agent-skills/ is pinned from chroma-core/agent-skills. We have READ permission only. Anything committed inside it can never be pushed, and a local commit there would leave this repo's gitlink pointing at a SHA that exists on no remote — the loss scenario the pseudomonorepos HARD STOP guards against.

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.
