sync

sync is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from arianlopezc/Trabuco. It costs 48 tokens per session (867 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A synchronization tool for an existing Trabuco project's AI-tooling files, such as skills, subagents, prompts, hooks and review setup. It compares the project with what the installed Trabuco CLI would currently generate.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for checking which AI-tooling files would be added, reviewing the proposed changes in a dry run, and applying those additions after confirmation. It first verifies that the directory is a Trabuco project.
Why use it?
It identifies missing files without changing files that are already present, so a project can catch up with the CLI's tooling safely and additively.

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

sync 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.

Sync AI tooling in a Trabuco project

This skill updates the AI-tooling layer of an existing Trabuco project so its skills, subagents, prompts, hooks, and review scaffolding match what the currently-installed Trabuco CLI would generate today.

Flow

  1. Identify the project. If the user didn't provide a path, use the current working directory. Call mcp__trabuco__get_project_info to confirm it's a Trabuco project — if it returns an error, tell the user and stop.

  2. Dry-run first. Call mcp__trabuco__sync_project with apply: false to produce a plan. The response is JSON with:

    • would_add: files the current CLI would emit that are missing
    • already_present: files that exist (untouched regardless of content)
    • out_of_jurisdiction: business / infra files sync never considers
    • blockers: reasons sync can't proceed (e.g., no .trabuco.json)
  3. Summarize to the user. Present the would_add list grouped by directory (.claude/, .codex/, .cursor/, .github/, .ai/, top-level). Keep the explanation short — the plan output speaks for itself.

  4. Confirm. If would_add is non-empty, ask the user "Apply these N additions?" Wait for explicit confirmation (not just acknowledgement — "yes" or "apply", not "sounds good").

  5. Apply. On confirmation, call mcp__trabuco__sync_project with apply: true. Report the count of files added.

  6. Next steps. Tell the user:

    • "Restart your Claude Code session if you want the new hooks and skills to load immediately."
    • "Run trabuco doctor to confirm project health."
    • "Review the changes with git diff before committing."

Rules

  • Never skip the dry-run. The user should always see what's going to happen before it happens.
  • If would_add is empty, report that clearly ("AI tooling is already up to date") and stop — no need to confirm or apply.
  • If there are blockers, surface them verbatim and suggest fixes (usually: make sure the directory is a Trabuco project with .trabuco.json).
  • Never claim sync modified existing files. It doesn't. If the user asks about refreshing a specific existing file (like CLAUDE.md), explain that sync is additive-only and the workaround is to delete the file first, then run sync.
  • Don't imply sync touches business code. Sync has strict jurisdiction boundaries: Java source, POMs, application.yml, docker-compose.yml, migrations, and CI workflows (other than copilot-setup-steps.yml) are never considered. If the user asks sync to "update my application.yml," redirect them.

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.
