claude-code-config: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/review-stack-audit/SKILL.md

review-stack-audit is a skill for Claude Code from auerbachb/claude-code-config. It costs 90 tokens per session (7,345 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A recurring check of whether paid AI code-review tools still provide enough value for their cost. It examines billing status, usage limits, throughput, and each tool’s distinct contribution.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to audit a review-tool stack and produce an advisory report or GitHub issues; it does not change subscriptions or repository rules.
Why use it?
It can reveal expired subscriptions, reduced limits, unnecessary spending, or review bottlenecks before they disrupt development.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: argument-hint in frontmatter. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md; positional $N argument.

This is auerbachb/claude-code-config's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on claude-code-config itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything claude-code-config configures →

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

    Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.
    Fix: Remove any persistence mechanisms (cron jobs, startup scripts, state files). Skills should not maintain state across sessions without explicit user consent.

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

review-stack-audit 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 yesterday.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (drift.sh, measure.sh, scorecard.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 569 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

review-stack-audit — do the review tools still earn their keep?

Issue #1199 realigned the review chain with what we actually pay for. That was a snapshot. Subscriptions lapse, caps shrink without notice, pricing moves, and new tools appear — and none of it announces itself. The last two mismatches (BugBot's spend cap, CodeAnt's "not subscribed" state) both surfaced as a bad afternoon of PRs queuing on review rather than as a line item anyone caught early.

This skill is the recurring version of that check.

ADVISORY ONLY — NON-NEGOTIABLE. This skill never edits a rule, skill, script, or config, and never changes a subscription. Not when the verdict is obvious. Its entire output surface is a snapshot, a report, and GitHub issues. A human lands any change through the normal issue → branch → PR flow. Billing actions are the user's alone — this skill says "this looks like a bill with no return", never "cancelled it for you".

Sibling to /harness-audit, not part of it. That audit asks whether the harness already does natively what we automate by hand — an internal-redundancy axis. This one asks whether external spend still buys value. Same cadence, same advisory posture, same issue-filing discipline; different question.

Resolve the repository locator before either engine runs:

resolve_script() {
  local name="$1" candidate
  for candidate in \
    "$HOME/.claude/skills-worktree/.claude/scripts/$name" \
    "$HOME/.claude/scripts/$name" \
    ".claude/scripts/$name"; do
    if [[ -x "$candidate" ]]; then echo "$candidate"; return 0; fi
  done
  return 1
}
REPO_ROOT_SH=$(resolve_script repo-root.sh || true)
[[ -n "$REPO_ROOT_SH" ]] || { echo "ERROR: repo-root.sh not found (checked all three paths) — review-stack audit root unavailable" >&2; exit 1; }

The engines

All four are plain scripts, so the judgment in this file stays small and their behavior is testable offline (.claude/scripts/tests/review-stack-audit.test.sh for the three in this skill, .claude/scripts/tests/report-path.test.sh for report-path.sh).

What ships with it

3 files 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.
