bjorn-skills: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

bjorn-skills CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from Vingedal/bjorn-skills. It costs 1,099 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Instructions for maintaining bjorn-skills, a collection of reusable agent skill documents. The same skill folders can be used by several coding-agent tools and installed in multiple ways.

In plain words
What is it for?
They guide contributors who add or edit skills, run the validation script, and check Claude Code marketplace and plugin manifests. A manifest is a file that describes a plugin or its contents.
Why use it?
They explain how the repository is structured and help keep skill files and plugin manifests consistent.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: Claude Code plugin machinery. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions Claude Code; mentions Codex.

This is Vingedal/bjorn-skills's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on bjorn-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 bjorn-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 A, and why

bjorn-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 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.

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 — 77 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

CLAUDE.md

This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.

What this repo is

bjorn-skills is a collection of cross-tool Agent Skills (the SKILL.md format). The same skills/<name>/ folder is consumed three ways from one source, with no conversion:

  • copied directly into any agent's skills directory (Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Cursor, Copilot, or Claude Code manual),
  • installed via skills.sh (npx skills add Vingedal/bjorn-skills --skill <name>), and
  • installed as a standalone Claude Code plugin (<name>@bjorn-skills).

There is no application to build or run. The only executable code is the CI validator; everything else is skill content (Markdown) and plugin manifests (JSON). Work here means authoring/maintaining skill docs and keeping the manifests in sync.

Commands

# The repo's "test": validates every SKILL.md frontmatter + all JSON manifests. Runs in CI on push/PR.
python3 .github/scripts/validate_skills.py     # `python` also works on the Windows dev host

# Validate the Claude Code marketplace + plugin manifests (needs the claude CLI; not run in CI)
claude plugin validate .

There are no build/lint/unit-test steps — validate_skills.py is the only check.

Architecture: how one skill is wired in three places

A skill must stay consistent across three files:

  1. skills/<name>/SKILL.md — the skill itself: YAML frontmatter (name, description) + Markdown instructions. The description is deliberately trigger-rich ("Use when the user asks to …") because that text is what causes the skill to be selected. Keep SKILL.md lean and push specifics into skills/<name>/reference/*.md, which SKILL.md links and the agent loads on demand (progressive disclosure).
  2. skills/<name>/.claude-plugin/plugin.json — makes the skill an installable Claude Code plugin. The skill folder is the plugin root: SKILL.md sits at the root (not under a nested skills/ subdir), which is the supported single-skill plugin layout.
  3. .claude-plugin/marketplace.json — one entry per skill in plugins[], each with "source": "./skills/<name>". Every skill is its own plugin, so users install only what they want.

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.
