Instructions file for Claude Code

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

This is MaoranSun/paper-to-storyboard's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on paper-to-storyboard 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 paper-to-storyboard configures →

Not installable: its command points at a path on the author’s own machine, so it runs nowhere else. The line is /Users/maoransun/GitHub/paper-to-storyboard/skill.

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 D, and why

paper-to-storyboard CLAUDE.md scanned grade D 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 11d 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.

Other skills' SKILL.md files reveal prompts, capabilities and secrets that should be invisible to peers.

**The installed skill at `~/.claude/skills/paper-to-storyboard/` is a SYMLINK to `./skill/` in this repo.** ⚠️ Always edit `./skill/` here. Edits made through the symlinked path technically work (they hit the same files)

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 148 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

paper-to-storyboard

This repo is the source of the paper-to-storyboard Claude Code Skill. The skill turns an academic PDF into a dark scroll-snap webpage (HTML + CSS + vanilla JS + transparent figures + AI cover).

Origin: https://github.com/MaoranSun/paper-to-storyboard (public, MIT). Always confirm git remote -v matches this before pushing — a divergent fork would be a sign the working tree was cloned elsewhere.

The installed skill at ~/.claude/skills/paper-to-storyboard/ is a SYMLINK to ./skill/ in this repo. ⚠️ Always edit ./skill/ here. Edits made through the symlinked path technically work (they hit the same files), but if a future contributor reinstalls with ./install.sh (copy mode) the symlink turns into a real directory and edits diverge silently. Verify with ls -la ~/.claude/skills/paper-to-storyboard — you should see -> /Users/maoransun/GitHub/paper-to-storyboard/skill. If it isn't a symlink, run ./install.sh --symlink once to restore.

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.
