Acu: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/acu-observe/SKILL.md

acu-observe is a skill for Claude Code from Acquiredl/Acu. It costs 51 tokens per session (825 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only repository health report that combines metrics, logs, status files, review records, roadmap progress, and template checks into one view.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check framework health, pipeline status, quality gates, reviews, and roadmap progress, with either a summary, detailed section, or machine-readable report.
Why use it?
It removes the need to inspect several files and reports separately when you want to understand how the Acu workspace is doing.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: user-invocable in frontmatter.

This is Acquiredl/Acu's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on Acu 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 Acu configures →

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

acu-observe 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 8d 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 — 95 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/acu-observe — Single-Pane Framework Observation

Aggregates 6 data streams into a 5-section report. Like /acu-pulse but broader — pulse is one data source, observe consumes all of them.

Protocol

Step 1: RUN — Execute observe.mjs

Run the observation script from the repository root:

node observe.mjs

Flags:

  • node observe.mjs --quick — one-line-per-section summary (5 lines total)
  • node observe.mjs --section {name} — drill into one section with full detail
  • node observe.mjs --json — machine-readable output for all sections

Valid section names: health, pipelines, gates, review, roadmap

Step 2: INTERPRET — Analyze the output

The script produces five sections. Each aggregates a different set of data sources:

Section 1: Framework Health

Sources: _templates/tests/test.sh, pipeline .acu-meta.yaml files

  • Template version + test results (pass/fail/warn counts)
  • Pipeline version drift summary (N current / N outdated / N pre-versioning)
  • Structural compliance (any pipelines missing gates, advance.sh, etc.)
Section 2: Pipeline Status

Sources: status.yaml across all pipelines

  • Per-pipeline: name, active unit count, completion rate, current stage of most recent unit
  • Stall alerts (units with no activity in 14+ days)
  • Overall: total units, total complete, total active, total blocked
Section 3: Gate Performance

Sources: pulse.mjs gate analytics

  • Autonomy rate (structural + full-stack)
  • Top 5 lowest first-pass-rate gates (bottleneck spotlight)
  • Failure ratio (structural vs semantic)
  • Alert count by type (disagreement, stuck-input, error-loop, stall)
Section 4: Review Cycle

Sources: REVIEW-LOG.md

  • Last review date
  • Open suggestions count
  • Open proposals count ([PROPOSAL] entries with status "Awaiting approval")
  • One-off observation count
Section 5: Roadmap

Sources: _roadmap/ROADMAP.md, _roadmap/initiatives/*/status.yaml

  • Active initiatives with item progress (N done / N total)
  • Deferred items with reasons
  • Recently completed initiatives

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.
