Getting it into your agent

Security

Grade A, and why

readme-writer 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.

What it installs

The manifest is a name and a version. 1 skill travel with it, and installing the plugin installs all of them — 84 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.

Disciplined implementation stage: execute approved plans inline (/implementation:implement) or via orchestrated worker subagents (/implementation:implement-dispatch) with incremental validation, TDD-by-default cadence, green-checkpoint commits, scope-fence drift detection, and divergence detection that routes back.

context-guard

Per-session context-window observability. A mod writes each session's context-window figures to a snapshot file and shows the person a toast and a transcript line when the context zone (smart, acceptable or dumb, from bands in zones.json) worsens; with modelnotices on (off by default) it also tells Claude the zone at.
