dark-factory

dark-factory is a plugin for Claude Code from curie-eng/curie. Its manifest loads nothing; the 1 skill, 4 hooks it bundles cost 38 tokens per session together, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

An automated coding workflow that takes one labelled GitHub issue—a tracked task in GitHub—and works toward a reviewed pull request, a proposed code change, or a stated reason for stopping. It reads the issue, plans and reviews the plan, writes tests where feasible, implements the change, checks the result, and publishes only through an approval-gated step.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for issue-driven repository work that needs acceptance criteria, tests, implementation, pull-request review, and CI checks before publication.
Why use it?
It turns a defined issue into a repeatable implementation process while adding plan and code review stages. It also provides a clear outcome when the work cannot be completed.

Security

Grade A, and why

dark-factory 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 12d 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.

What it installs

The manifest is a name and a version. 1 skill, 4 hooks travel with it, and installing the plugin installs all of them — 38 tokens a session between them. Each is measured on its own page, and each can be installed alone.

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.
