aid-summarize is a skill for Claude Code from AndreVianna/aid-methodology. It costs 133 tokens per session (3,763 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A single visual HTML summary of a project's approved knowledge base, written for newcomers and other non-technical readers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to generate a browsable overview with one section for each resolved knowledge-base document.
Why use it?
It makes project information easier to understand than reading the underlying technical knowledge files directly.

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

aid-summarize 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 9d 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 — 246 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Knowledge Base Visual Summary

State machine: PREFLIGHT -> STALE-CHECK -> PROFILE -> GENERATE -> VALIDATE -> MANUAL-CHECKLIST -> FIX -> APPROVAL -> WRITEBACK -> DONE.

Generates a single self-contained kb.html from a populated and approved .aid/knowledge/ Knowledge Base. The output is a newcomer-facing product — visually rich, plain-language, and distinct from the KB itself (which is a dual-audience technical artifact for humans + AI agents). The KB's authoring rules (no diagrams, tables/bullets) apply to the KB; they do NOT constrain the summary's format.

The section set is derived data-drivenly from the resolved doc-set (discovery.doc_set in .aid/settings.yml intersected with docs present on disk), one section per resolved doc. Each section's attributes (heading, description, component, tier, keyword pills, cross-links) come from that doc's frontmatter (kb-category, objective, summary, tags, see_also). Section order is deterministic and reproducible from the same inputs.

Prerequisite: /aid-discover must have reached DONE and the user must have approved the KB. This skill does NOT validate KB content — that is discovery's job.

Idempotent: Running /aid-summarize repeatedly on an unchanged KB is a no-op. It only regenerates the HTML when the KB has been re-reviewed since the last summarization.


⚠️ Pre-flight Checks

Run .claude/aid/scripts/summarize/summarize-preflight.sh before any state. It verifies:

  1. .aid/knowledge/STATE.md exists.
  2. **User Approved:** yes is present in .aid/knowledge/STATE.md.
  3. At least one populated KB document exists (.aid/knowledge/*.md with real content).
  4. Not in Plan Mode (need write access).
  5. Node.js >= 22 is available (required for visual-fidelity validation via validate-visuals.mjs).

If any check fails, the script exits non-zero with a clear actionable message. Do NOT proceed; do NOT create any state files.

Arguments

Argument Effect
--grade X Override the minimum acceptable grade. Format: [A-F][-+]?. Without this, runs bash .claude/aid/scripts/config/read-setting.sh --skill summary --key minimum_grade --default A (resolves per-skill override → global review.minimum_grade → default A). When passed, persist to .aid/settings.yml summary.minimum_grade via /aid-config.
--theme palette=X Override color palette (e.g., --theme palette=brand-acme). Default uses the canonical palette in .claude/aid/templates/knowledge-summary/design-tokens.md.
--reset Force regeneration regardless of staleness check; clears ## Knowledge Summary Status in .aid/knowledge/STATE.md.

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.
