11-explore

11-explore is a skill for Claude Code from ai-driven-dev/framework. It costs 58 tokens per session (603 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A project-mapping skill that surveys the tools, AI context files, and codebase structure available in a project. It can show what is installed and help locate a suitable skill or rule.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to get an overview of a project, inspect its available coding-agent tools and context, or find a skill that matches a goal.
Why use it?
It removes the need to inspect scattered project files and configuration by hand before deciding what to use.

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

11-explore 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 3d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/list-rules.mjs), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 40 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Explore

Surveys the current project across three axes so the user sees what is there and can dig into any of them. It maps the project, it never prescribes a next step.

Axes

  • Tooling: the AIDD capabilities installed, the skills, agents, commands, rules, hooks, MCP servers, and plugins. What the user can run.
  • Context: the context layer, the memory bank, the specs and plans, and the AI context files. What the AI knows about the project.
  • Codebase: the project itself, the stack and the high-level structure. What the project is.

Actions

# Action Role Input
01 survey Scan the three axes and present a compact map project root
02 drill Descend one axis or all, level by level, match an intent if any a scope or a goal

Detect the project's AI tools first, from the signals in references/ai-mapping.md. Then route by what the user asked: no scope given runs survey for a compact map, a named axis or "all" runs drill straight away. Always propose the axes when the request is open, never assume one. Run each action's ## Test before the next. Before running an action, read its file in actions/, not only the table or assets.

Transversal rules

  • Map, never prescribe. Explore shows what is there across the axes and descends into it on request. It never tells the user the next step, that is the onboard skill's job, at any depth.
  • Detect the tools before either action. A surface a tool does not have is skipped, never an error.
  • Propose, then accept. Offer the axes or all when the request is open, run the user's pick directly when they name one.
  • Descend one level per confirmation. Wait for the user at every level, stop at a leaf or when they are done.
  • List only what is actually installed or present, never invent an item.
  • Never hardcode a tool. Per-tool scan paths and formats live in references/ai-mapping.md.
  • Point, do not run. Return an item's invocation path and stop.

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.
