What is it for?
Use them when creating a Pardes plugin, editing its manifest or marketplace registry, adding a changelog, or checking where skills, agents, hooks, commands, and configuration files belong.
Why use it?
They reduce inconsistencies when adding or updating marketplace entries. They also make sure each user-facing skill is packaged and registered in the expected place.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: mentions .claude-plugin; mentions Claude Code; mentions AGENTS.md.

This is ShivaeDev/pardes's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on pardes 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 pardes 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 A, and why

pardes 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 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.

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.

CLAUDE

Pardes — a calm-coding marketplace of Claude Code plugins and skills. One repo, many plugins (see README.md and .claude-plugin/marketplace.json).

Structure

  • .claude-plugin/marketplace.json — the plugin registry (name, owner, plugins[]).
  • plugins/<name>/.claude-plugin/plugin.json — per-plugin manifest.
  • plugins/<name>/{skills,agents,hooks,commands}/, .mcp.json — auto-discovered by Claude Code; no extra registration beyond plugin.json.
  • changelog/<name>.md — per-plugin changelog (Keep a Changelog), at the repo root.

Conventions

  • Owner/author in manifests is the org (ShivaeDev), never a personal name.
  • No barrel files in Claude/Codex marketplace plugins; named exports; bun for everything.
  • plugins/pardes-pi/ is a self-contained Pi extension source tree with its own AGENTS.md and TypeScript config. It intentionally uses bounded-context index.ts public entrypoints.

One skill per plugin

Each user-facing skill ships as its own plugin (plugins/<skill>/skills/<skill>/SKILL.md), so people install only what they want rather than swallowing a grab-bag. A plugin generally owns exactly one skill and is named after it. Skills may still depend on one another across plugins — the install boundary is per-skill, not per-dependency. base is the deliberate exception: it's the home for shared hooks/infrastructure, not a skill bundle. Don't pile new skills into base or into an existing single-skill plugin; add a new plugin.

GitHub Actions

Two workflows ship and run, both with a security review applied — see their inline SECURITY POSTURE / NOTE comment blocks before changing them:

  • lint.yml — runs biome ci on PRs (and pushes to main as a backstop). Read-only token. To actually block merge it must be a required status check in the repo ruleset (a repo setting, not YAML).
  • version-bump.yml — auto-bumps plugin versions on push:main only (no pull_request / workflow_dispatch, so nothing untrusted ever runs with the token). Opens a PR, merges it synchronously, then tags the merged commit; version tags are create-only via a *--v* ruleset.

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.
