config

config is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from AAWWCC/ape. It costs 18 tokens per session (370 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A skill for managing APE's host-neutral runtime configuration. It can read, change, diagnose, initialize, or connect configuration to a named host when the required approval is given.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for reading configuration values, updating them, diagnosing readiness, proposing setup commands, and wiring or unwiring statusline integration.
Why use it?
It provides defined procedures for configuration work and helps avoid changing the wrong settings or instruction file. APE is not explained in the input beyond its runtime configuration.

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

config 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 2d 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 actually says

APE config

Use only when the user explicitly requests APE configuration work. Call ape_config with one of:

On Google Antigravity / Gemini, pass the exact open project root as project_dir.

  • get: read configuration, optionally at a dot-path key.
  • set: write the requested dot-path value. Preserve unrelated sparse overrides.
  • doctor: diagnose runtime, git, hook, bundle, lock, and statusline readiness. Supply run-start facts only when validating a prospective run.
  • init: inspect project manifests and propose test commands/evidence scripts without writing. It may also propose a small managed APE orientation block for the effective project instruction file; AGENTS.override.md takes precedence over AGENTS.md. Applying config requires explicit approval and apply: true; user-supplied values override proposed slots. Applying the orientation is a separate explicit action using apply_agents: true, the exact proposed agents_path, and its matching agents_expected_hash. Never apply a stale proposal or write the non-effective instruction file.
  • wire / unwire: change statusline integration for an explicitly named host.

Do not translate host-neutral test commands into platform-specific shell strings. Do not claim the Codex native status line is the custom APE renderer. Before any mutating action, restate the exact key, values, or host in scope; report tool warnings and rejected fields without weakening them.

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.

config is a skill published in the GitHub repository AAWWCC/ape (0 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 18 tokens to every session and 370 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
