scan-commit

scan-commit is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from almanax-ai/almanax-security-plugin. It costs 24 tokens per session (408 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A workflow for checking a Git commit or commit range for security vulnerabilities using Almanax.

In plain words
What is it for?
It scans commits, waits for scan results, summarizes findings by severity and affected area, and can guide fixes.
Why use it?
It avoids manually reviewing every changed line for security problems and helps organize the results.

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

scan-commit 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.

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.

What it actually says

Use Almanax to scan a commit diff and work from the resulting findings.

Workflow:

  1. Determine repo_owner, repo_name, and commit_sha from the user request.
  2. If the user asks to scan the current commit or a recent commit range like "last three commits", infer the current repository and HEAD commit from the local git checkout.
  3. If the user provides or clearly implies a range, include base_sha. Treat requests like "last three commits" as one diff scan ending at HEAD, not three separate scans. Ask a follow-up only if the intended range is ambiguous.
  4. If Almanax tools are unavailable or authentication appears broken, switch to onboarding and guide the user through /almanax-security:setup.
  5. Call almanax_scan_commit.
  6. If Almanax returns selection_required=true, prefer a shared organization project when the user asks for the shared org; otherwise ask the user which org or project to use.
  7. Follow next_action exactly. If next_action=poll_status, wait the full recommended_poll_after_seconds before calling almanax_get_scan_status again, and do not busy-poll.
  8. When findings are available, summarize them clearly by severity and affected area.
  9. If the user wants help fixing issues, address the highest severity findings first.

Important:

  • Never ask the user to paste or expose their API key.
  • If the scan fails because the repository is unavailable in Almanax, explain that they may need to connect GitHub or link the repository in Almanax first.

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.
