cc-skills: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

cc-skills CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from terrylica/cc-skills. It costs 2,616 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for a Claude Code skills marketplace containing plugins for architecture-led development workflows. They define a documentation hierarchy in which general rules link to more detailed plugin and skill instructions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when editing the marketplace structure, plugin documentation, skill documentation, hooks, releases, or other files governed by its documentation standards.
Why use it?
They help coding agents find the correct project rules without duplicating or conflicting documentation across the marketplace, plugins, and individual skills.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: $CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT variable. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions .claude-plugin; mentions CLAUDE.md.

This is terrylica/cc-skills's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on cc-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 cc-skills configures →

Runs only inside a plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else, and the catalogue could not identify which plugin ships it.

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

cc-skills 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 6d 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.

Progressive disclosure rule: each layer must add information the next-shallower layer didn't already cover. Don't restate plugin invariants in the root; don't restate skill invariants in the plugin. When the user asks Claude something specific, Claude follows links downward — so the deepest layer's freshness matters most.

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.
