daodan: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/custom-plugin-refresh/SKILL.md

custom-plugin-refresh is a skill for Claude Code from acaprino/daodan. It costs 177 tokens per session (3,567 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A maintenance process for custom plugins that have no upstream project to compare against. It covers how to find stale versions, guidance, and other time-sensitive information.

In plain words
What is it for?
Classify freshness risks, choose what to review first, research current information, make focused updates, and mark refresh commits.
Why use it?
It provides a repeatable way to decide what needs updating when changes are not automatically supplied by another source.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} variable. Also seen: mentions .claude-plugin; positional $N argument; installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is acaprino/daodan's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on daodan itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything daodan configures →

Runs only inside a plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else, and the catalogue could not identify which plugin ships it.

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

custom-plugin-refresh 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 10d 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 — 150 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Custom plugin maintenance

A "custom plugin" has hand-authored or research-grounded content without a copied upstream source to re-pull. Copied-source targets in the upstream-sync table use that skill for upstream comparison. Inspiration-only rows retain provenance without excluding the original local plugin from this refresh method: both codebase-map rows are inspiration-only, so refresh its local content here. An inspiration row that records an upstream commit is a watch: at each refresh, read the upstream diff of the named path since that commit (gh api repos/<owner>/<repo>/compare/<sha>...HEAD), decide which ideas to adopt, rewrite them in local words, then advance the recorded commit. Never paste upstream text. Preserve existing copied-source tracking and history; neither route authorizes new vendoring.

Custom plugins decay differently than vendored ones. There is no upstream commit to diff against. Versions, framework recommendations, breaking-change notes, and "current as of 2026" claims become stale silently. The maintenance protocol below is the antidote.

Refresh the hand-authored kernel under plugins/<name>/: plugin.toml, roles/, workflows/ with their TOML sidecars, skills/, contracts/ and policies/. Host mechanisms live under adapters/. Exports and root marketplace catalogs are generated; correct their source and rebuild rather than editing package copies.

Freshness risk classes

Classify each plugin into one of four classes. The class determines refresh cadence and triage priority.

Class What it tracks Typical cadence Examples
Very fast Versions bump every few months; breaking changes are common; ecosystem reshuffles Every 3 months rag-development (embedding models, rerankers, vector DBs), digital-marketing/ga4-implementation (Consent Mode, GA4 events), react-development (React 19, Vercel guidance)
Fast Framework releases 2-3x per year; APIs evolve Every 6 months libgdx-development, opentelemetry, tauri-development, stripe (API additions, webhook event types), grabber-development (anti-bot vendor moves), browser-extensions, pwa-expert (browser version churn, WebKit feature rollout, framework PWA library churn), text-humanizer (Wikipedia's signs page and the upstream humanizer both change monthly), business (its privacy-doc-generator quotes app store rules and EDPB guidance; see its refresh note below)
Moderate Major releases ~yearly; breaking changes rare Every 12 months trading-broker-integration, csp (OR-Tools), python-development, typescript-development, messaging (RabbitMQ majors), obsidian-development, abstraction-architect (theory is stable; URL list in further-reading.md decays on a yearly cadence)
Slow Workflow knowledge that ages by behavior change, not version bumps Opportunistic; review only when symptoms appear project-delivery, project-lifecycle, work-controller, senior-review, project-knowledge, team pipeline workflows, marketplace-ops, system-utils, learning, research, clean-code, codebase-map, platform-engineering, testing methodology, xterm, app-analyzer

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.
