lamina-research

lamina-research is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from aryaniyaps/lamina. It costs 78 tokens per session (608 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A research guide for grounding product findings in evidence from repositories, running products, captures, tickets, or references. It helps define what to inspect and how to communicate the results.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan verification, inspect an existing product, evaluate user tasks, combine walkthrough findings, or hand research results to designers and implementers.
Why use it?
It separates known facts from assumptions and evidence gaps, reducing unsupported conclusions about a product.

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-research 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 11d 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.

Lamina Research

Reference-loading protocol

  1. Match the request's primary research decision to one row below.
  2. Open that linked reference before answering. Add another only when a second decision materially changes the answer; do not preload the directory.
  3. Start the response with Using lamina-research: <topic path(s)> so the selected evidence lens is auditable.

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.
