kc-plugin-forge

kc-plugin-forge is a plugin for Claude Code from iamcxa/kc-claude-plugins. Its manifest loads nothing; the 5 skills it bundles cost 294 tokens per session together, scanned A, original, MIT.

A plugin-development tool that scaffolds plugins, provides test-first development guidance, checks agents and structure, and iterates on documentation. TDD, or test-driven development, means writing tests before the code they check.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating a plugin, checking its structure and agents, applying TDD practices, and improving its documentation.
Why use it?
It brings common development and quality checks into one workflow instead of requiring each plugin task to be handled separately.

Security

Grade A, and why

kc-plugin-forge 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 1mo 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. 5 skills travel with it, and installing the plugin installs all of them — 294 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.
