architecture

A codebase-structure guide that shows how files and modules are connected through imports. It also identifies central files and groups of related code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when changing imports, adding files, refactoring modules, or tracing how components depend on one another.
Why use it?
Changing a central file or crossing a module boundary can affect many parts of an application. This context helps developers understand those relationships before making changes.

Per session 29 Skills are progressive disclosure: only the name and description are preloaded; the body loads when the skill is used.
When invoked 122 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
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

architecture 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.

What it actually says

Architecture

This skill provides codebase structure and import graph data.

When you need to understand file relationships, hub files, or domain clusters, check references/code-map.md for the full import graph analysis.

Key Rules

  • Check hub files (high fan-in) before modifying - changes propagate widely
  • Respect domain cluster boundaries - keep related files together
  • Check cross-domain dependencies before creating new imports
Files

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

architecture is a skill published in the GitHub repository aspenkit/aspens (96 stars, last pushed 18d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 29 tokens to every session and 122 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
