lamina-init

lamina-init is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from aryaniyaps/lamina. It costs 33 tokens per session (861 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

An initialization workflow for establishing business evidence and standard Product, Actor, and Persona records in Lamina’s data graph. It also creates required project evidence files under .lamina/.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to initialize a Lamina project, record its goals, users, scope, constraints, risks, and research posture, and create evidence-grounded personas.
Why use it?
It gives a project a documented business context and a consistent set of people and product records before further evidence or graph changes are made.

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

lamina-init 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 8d 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 — 80 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/lamina-init

Before any evidence or graph mutation, read and apply ../lamina/orchestrator/prerequisites/cli-required.md.

Read ../lamina/orchestrator/audit-profiles.yaml. Load the init.always references, then only those init.conditional references whose when signal is present. For each selected entry, open the named capability SKILL.md and then its exact reference; do not load sibling topics.

For a directory that is not yet a Git project, initialize Git metadata as specified by that prerequisite before writing evidence. Do not ask for or create an initial commit.

Init writes evidence files only under .lamina/ and canonical knowledge through graphd. It never edits application source.

Evidence artifacts

Write .lamina/business-context.md with frontmatter containing lamina.maturity, platform, and last_updated, followed by exactly these non-placeholder sections: Problem statement, Business goals, Success metrics, Scope, Users & market, Product posture, Constraints, Stakeholders, Risks & unknowns, Research posture, Triad check.

Write .lamina/personas.json as evidence-source JSON with evidence-grounded personas. Goals, constraints, and evidence are arrays. Do not invent demographics. These files are indexable evidence, not canonical graph state.

Run the shipped init/persona validators when available, then lamina graph observe so CocoIndex produces explicit source Observation envelopes. The CLI automatically replaces an incompatible graphd and retries observation once; do not repeatedly rebuild observations to repair daemon compatibility.

If observation exits nonzero after that recovery, treat observation as degraded and optional. Core graph initialization may continue, but do not create Evidence Resources or attach evidence claims for the unavailable snapshot. Do not describe aliases, observation view names, or generation labels as evidence.

When observation succeeds, use observed.resource_ids from its output (or the exact Resource.id values returned by querying that active observation view) as graph evidence. Never substitute a path alias, source key, view name, or generation for an Observation Resource id.

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.
