Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions Claude Code; mentions OpenCode.

This is Sagargupta16/skillcheck's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on skillcheck 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 skillcheck configures →

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is - Root [`CLAUDE.md`](../../CLAUDE.md) -- voice, rules, routing map, references, skills, slash commands, conventions..

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

skillcheck 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 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.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 70 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

CLAUDE.md

This file stacks on top of the workspace root at C:\Code\GitHub\:

  • Root CLAUDE.md -- voice, rules, routing map, references, skills, slash commands, conventions.
  • Root MEMORY.md -- live facts across repos.
  • Root STATUS.md -- live PR/CI/security dashboard.
  • .claude/resources/ -- deep reference for collaboration, workflow, git, OSS, debugging, voice.

Read those first. The guidance below only adds repo-specific context -- it does not override anything in the root.

Project

Conformance suite for Agent Skills (SKILL.md): lints skills against the agentskills.io spec today; roadmap is headless cross-runtime execution tests + a public caniuse-style compatibility matrix. Public OSS, npm package @sagargupta1610/skillcheck.

Stack

  • Language: TypeScript 7 (strict, ESM, NodeNext)
  • Framework: none -- CLI via commander, JS bundled by tsup, .d.ts emitted by tsc
  • Database: none
  • Package manager: pnpm
  • Deploy target: npm registry (CLI); GitHub Pages (playground)

Run

pnpm install
pnpm dev          # tsup --watch (JS only, no .d.ts)
pnpm build        # tsup -> dist/*.js, then tsc --emitDeclarationOnly -> dist/*.d.ts
node dist/cli.js lint fixtures/valid-skill

Test

pnpm test         # vitest
pnpm lint         # biome
pnpm typecheck

Entry points

  • src/cli.ts -- commander CLI (skillcheck lint)
  • src/index.ts -- library exports (lintSkillDir, parseSkillMd, types)

Key files

  • src/lint/rules.ts -- the "brain": all lint rule implementations and limits
  • src/extensions.ts -- SPEC_FIELDS + KNOWN_EXTENSIONS typed registry (spec fields, client extension fields)
  • src/lint/parse.ts -- SKILL.md frontmatter/body splitter (never throws)
  • src/lint/source.ts -- lintSkillSource: per-file rules on a string, no fs; shared by lintSkillDir and the playground
  • site/ -- browser playground (pnpm site:build -> dist-site/, pnpm site:serve), deployed by .github/workflows/pages.yml
  • scripts/corpus-scan.ts + scripts/corpus.json -- pnpm corpus scans pinned public skill repos into docs/corpus.md
  • fixtures/ -- valid-skill and broken-skill lint fixtures used by tests and CI smoke test

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.
