load-project-context

load-project-context is a skill for Claude Code from atman-33/workhub. It costs 55 tokens per session (372 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A project-context loader that briefs a coding session on a team project’s current backlog, sprint, and repository progress. It reads summary files first, refreshes stale progress data, and updates the project’s shared index when needed.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when asking where a project is or when beginning a work session to review the sprint goal, remaining work, active items, branch changes, and unusual conditions.
Why use it?
It reduces the time needed to understand where a project stands before starting work.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} variable.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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

load-project-context 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 4d 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

Load a project's context

Brief the user (and this session) on the project's current state at minimum token cost: read aggregates first, raw data only when asked.

Steps

  1. Resolve the project from <team-context> (ask if several are active).

  2. Refresh stale data when cheap (both are token-free scripts; run them if the last sync is older than ~1 day):

    node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/sync/sync-project-repos.mjs" <project>
    node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/snapshot/progress-snapshot.mjs" <project>
    
  3. Read the aggregates (not the raw item files): _index.md, product-backlog.md, the latest progress-history.jsonl line, each repo's repo-state.json + diff-vs-default.json, and the current sprint's planning.md.

  4. Brief the user (their language): sprint goal and remaining points, items in doing/review, dev-main branch positions vs default, and anything unusual (stale sync, items stuck, scope changes).

  5. Maintain the summary: update the current-state section of the project's _index.md (team content language, ~10 lines) when it has drifted from reality, so the next session starts even cheaper. Append an activity-log line when you do.

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.
