Security

Grade A, and why

project-setup 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 7d 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.

  "description": "Project configuration and setup tools including CLAUDE.md creation and maintenance with ground truth validation. The maintain flow preserves existing references and information by default - removal requires cross-verification proving the content false or obsolete (else: keep, extract to docs/, or ask the user) - and surfaces every single drift to the user via AskUserQuestion before applying any change (no batch-auto-fix, default on unanswered = leave unchanged). Includes a Phase 4b internal-duplication detection pass: file paths, pointers, and external resources are counted across the document; reference outliers (one path appearing N>1 times while peers appear once), conceptual restatements, and weak-justification duplicates (e.g., 'scannability' for jumping readers) are surfaced as per-drift questions with all N occurrences, peer-group comparison, and concrete merge/keep/cross-reference/extract options. Dedup merges are treated as deletions and require explicit per-item approval. Enforces a hard 40,000-character cap on CLAUDE.md (Claude Code performance warning threshold) by extracting bloated sections to docs/ via thin pointers. The project-structure section is required to document the EVERGREEN shape (top-level layout + repeating structural patterns + role per category), not an exhaustive file-by-file tree; file-by-file annotation is justified only where names alone are ambiguous, where the file is a key entry point, or to disambiguate siblings. Exhaustive file-by-file trees in existing CLAUDE.md files are flagged as Medium consolidation candidates (high decay risk, tokens without evergreen value) and surfaced as per-finding questions (consolidate / extract to docs/ / keep / skip), never collapsed autonomously. Generated CLAUDE.md files always include a canonical Working Principles section with 5 principles (4 inspired by upstream agentic-coding meta-rules: Think Before Coding, Simplicity First,

What it installs

The manifest is a name and a version. 2 commands, 1 agent travel with it, and installing the plugin installs all of them — 182 tokens a session between them. Each is measured on its own page, and each can be installed alone.

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.
