configuration

configuration is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from alfredxw/denova. It costs 31 tokens per session (949 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A set of rules for reading and changing managed project configuration through dedicated configuration tools. It covers presets, game modules, automations, skills, and agent profiles.

In plain words
What is it for?
Discovering configuration types, finding exact records, and safely creating, updating, or deleting them.
Why use it?
It prevents unsafe direct edits, stale updates, and changes that do not match the configuration system's rules.

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

configuration 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 53 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Configuration

Manage every supported configuration resource through the stable config_read and config_apply tools. Never edit Denova configuration files or internal JSON storage directly.

Required workflow

  1. For an unfamiliar resource, call config_read with operation=describe. Omit resource to discover all registered kinds, or provide one kind for its contract.
  2. Call config_read(operation=list) to resolve the exact ID and scope. Catalogs use items plus next_cursor; continue with the identical request and returned cursor until truncated=false when the full catalog matters. Before an update or delete, call config_read(operation=get) for the exact ID and retain its latest revision.
  3. Read exactly the relevant reference below with read({"path":"skill://configuration/references/<file>.md"}). Do not infer a value shape from another resource.
  4. Follow that resource's mutation semantics. Call config_apply for exactly one create, update, or delete and use only names returned by describe.
  5. For update and delete, copy the latest revision from config_read; never guess, copy an example placeholder, or reuse a stale revision. Preserve every field or layer section the user did not ask to change.

get accepts any number of IDs. A mixed batch succeeds with existing items, explicit missing_ids, and per-ID failures; an entirely unsuccessful completed batch fails. Large exact reads also return next_cursor. Never treat truncated=true as a complete read. 6. config_apply returns only a compact persistence receipt (resource, operation, id, revision). Read the changed item again and compare the requested fields plus preservation-sensitive fields. Report success only when the effective result matches.

Deletion must be explicitly requested by the user. If a stale-revision conflict occurs, read the current item again, reconcile the requested change with that value, and retry once with the new revision. Do not silently overwrite concurrent changes.

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.
