curate

curate is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from 7xuanlu/wenlan. It costs 55 tokens per session (1,254 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A workflow for reading the current Wenlan project Brief, which is the authoritative snapshot of a project’s current context and status.

In plain words
What is it for?
Resolving the relevant project space and retrieving its current Brief, with optional related context for a topic.
Why use it?
It helps the agent resume work with the right project and topic context instead of relying on outdated session notes.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

curate 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 6d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 159 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/curate

Power-user audit of Wenlan pending surfaces. Daily flow should stay light: /brief shows the top pending revisions and /handoff previews recent pending captures. Use /curate only when the user asks to walk the queue.

Safety protocol

Perform no mutation until the user replies. Ambiguous replies do not mutate. Cancellation, no reply, or unclear syntax is a no-op.

Render at most four items at a time. Number every item. Ask for explicit action syntax:

1 accept
2 dismiss
3 skip
4 edit: <replacement text>

Do not rely on hidden pagination state across turns. After applying a batch, re-list before showing another batch.

/curate revisions

Use the local CLI, not MCP, because revision actions must key on the exact revision_source_id.

Resolve wenlan:

if command -v wenlan >/dev/null 2>&1; then
  W="$(command -v wenlan)"
elif [ -x "$HOME/.wenlan/bin/wenlan" ]; then
  W="$HOME/.wenlan/bin/wenlan"
else
  echo "wenlan not found"
  exit 127
fi
"$W" --format json curate

If wenlan is missing, tell the user to run /setup.

The JSON array contains:

  • revision_source_id: staged revision id; action key for accept/dismiss.
  • target_source_id: original memory id; context only.
  • content: revised text.
  • source_agent: proposer.
  • original: current text when available.
  • diff: ready-made OLD/NEW preview when available.

Render up to four revisions:

Pending revisions:

1. revision_source_id: <rev_id>
   target: <target_source_id>
   proposed: "<content>"
   diff:
   <diff or "(original unavailable)">

Reply with: 1 accept, 1 dismiss, 1 skip

Apply only explicit actions:

"$W" curate accept <revision_source_id>
"$W" curate dismiss <revision_source_id>

accept replaces the original memory with that named revision. dismiss unstages the false revision link and keeps both memories as independent rows. skip does nothing.

/curate captures

If the user names a space, parse space:<name> and pass it to mcp__wenlan__list_pending. Otherwise leave space off so the audit covers all pending captures.

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
