exploration-cycle-plugin

exploration-cycle-plugin is a plugin for Claude Code from richfrem/agent-plugins-skills. Its manifest loads nothing; the 20 skills, 15 agents it bundles cost 2,465 tokens per session together, scanned A, original, MIT.

A plugin for guided product discovery, business-requirements capture, and prototype work. It uses an exploration workflow with checkpoints between phases.

In plain words
What is it for?
Running discovery sessions, capturing business requirements, building prototypes, and enforcing phase gates in spec-driven engineering.
Why use it?
Teams can lose track of requirements or begin prototyping before discovery is complete. The workflow keeps those activities organized and ordered.

Security

Grade A, and why

exploration-cycle-plugin 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.

What it installs

The manifest is a name and a version. 20 skills, 15 agents travel with it, and installing the plugin installs all of them — 2,465 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.
