pace

pace is a skill for Claude Code from ai-analyst-lab/ai-analyst. It costs 185 tokens per session (1,351 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A control for how visibly an analysis is carried out: step-by-step with pauses, narrated without pauses, or silently with only the final result. It applies to larger analyses rather than simple lookups.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to set guided, narrated, or autopilot behavior for complex analytical work.
Why use it?
It lets users choose between reviewing each phase and receiving a finished answer without progress messages.

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

pace 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 1mo 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 — 117 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Skill: Pace

Purpose

Persist the user's explicit choice of pace mode — how visibly the analytical machinery surfaces during L3+ analyses. Pace is orthogonal to complexity level (L1–L5). Level decides which agents run; pace decides how visible the work is.

Modes

Mode Behavior
guided Announce each phase, run it, pause and wait for /continue before the next phase
narrated Announce each phase, run it, announce the result, continue to the next phase without pausing (the safe default)
autopilot Silent end-to-end. No phase banners. The final message is the user's first look at the work: open with the outcome, then findings, then what is next, written for a reader who saw none of the run.

Invocation

The user types one of:

  • /pace guided
  • /pace narrated
  • /pace autopilot
  • /pace (no argument) — show the current mode and the three options
  • Natural language: "slow down, pause between steps" → guided; "just run it silently" → autopilot; "narrate but don't stop" → narrated

Behavior

  1. Resolve the target mode. If the argument is one of guided|narrated|autopilot, use it. If no argument, print the current mode (read from working/session_state.yaml → pace_mode) and the three options. Stop.
  2. Validate. If the argument is anything else, echo the three valid modes and ask which one the user wants. Do NOT guess or silently fall back.
  3. Read existing state. Load working/session_state.yaml if it exists; otherwise start with an empty dict. Preserve every other key.
  4. Write atomically. Write the updated YAML to working/session_state.yaml.tmp, then rename to working/session_state.yaml. This prevents corruption if the process is interrupted mid-write.
  5. Confirm to the user. One line:
    • guided → "Pace set to guided. I'll pause after each phase and wait for /continue."
    • narrated → "Pace set to narrated. I'll announce each phase and run end-to-end."
    • autopilot → "Pace set to autopilot. I'll run silently and show you the final output."
  6. Apply on next phase boundary. If an analysis is already in flight, the new mode takes effect starting with the next phase. Tell the user so. Never switch mid-phase — it produces inconsistent banner state.

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.
