pastiche

A session-start language-learning tool that adds vocabulary to ordinary coding conversations and keeps a markdown record of learning progress. It includes older words being forgotten, new words from the current work, and words used without prompting.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to practise a language while coding, review words that need refreshing, and keep a personal vocabulary record.
Why use it?
It turns routine coding sessions into repeated exposure to useful vocabulary without requiring a separate lesson.

Grade A, and why

pastiche 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 yesterday.

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.

A SessionStart hook weaves vocabulary into ordinary Claude Code sessions — stale items you are forgetting, a small budget of new terms drawn from the work itself, and anything you use unprompted recorded rather than taught back at you.

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.
