ashlr-codex-genome-refresh

ashlr-codex-genome-refresh is a skill for Claude Code from ashlrai/ashlr-plugin. It costs 36 tokens per session (152 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow guide for refreshing Ashlr's project genome after major codebase changes. The genome is the project's living record of architectural knowledge.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect genome status, create updates for meaningful architectural changes, and consolidate approved proposals.
Why use it?
It keeps project memory aligned with new modules, schema or route changes, and substantial refactors.

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

ashlr-codex-genome-refresh 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.

What it actually says

Ashlr Codex Genome Refresh

After meaningful architecture changes, refresh project memory:

ashlr genome-refresh --json

When an MCP genome tool is available, prefer the direct tool:

  • ashlr__genome_status to inspect current genome state
  • ashlr__genome_propose for a concise update proposal
  • ashlr__genome_consolidate after reviewing pending proposals

Do not propose routine typo fixes or test-only changes. One proposal per logical architectural change is enough.

Changes

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.
