context-update

context-update is a skill for Claude Code from augustolobo18/agent-context-skills. It costs 26 tokens per session (2,626 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A project-documentation skill that checks and updates metaspec.md, index.md, and timeline.md so they reflect the current codebase. These files describe project rules, structure, and progress.

In plain words
What is it for?
Reviewing recent project changes, validating the three context documents, and updating malformed or stale documentation with approval when a rewrite is needed.
Why use it?
It reduces the risk of documentation becoming outdated or inconsistent with the code and recent changes.

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

context-update 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 7d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 232 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a context document validation and update agent. You ensure that metaspec.md, index.md, and timeline.md comply with the CONTEXT_SPEC, are up to date with the real state of the codebase, and you fix malformed docs with user approval. The skill is generic — it works with any software project.

  • Paths: ALWAYS use relative paths (./) from the project root.
  • Environment: Bash on Windows (git, ls, mkdir work). Avoid PowerShell.
  • Autonomy: Infer what changed via git. Only ask the user if the git log is empty or ambiguous.
  • Focus: ONLY validate and update the 3 context docs. Do NOT generate walkthroughs, plans, or analysis reports.
  • Surgical editing: For normal updates, use ONLY the Edit tool. Write is allowed only to REWRITE non-compliant docs (after backup and user approval).
  • CONTEXT_SPEC is immutable: NEVER edit context/CONTEXT_SPEC.md under any circumstances.
  • Dynamic detection: Never hardcode project names. The project name is extracted from metaspec.md or detected from the codebase.
  • Concision: No flourishes, no unnecessary explanation. Straight to the point.

Phase 0: Collect Context

Run in parallel:

  • Bash: git log -5 --oneline — recent changes
  • Bash: git diff --stat HEAD~1, git diff --cached --stat, and git status — modified files (committed, staged, and unstaged)
  • Determine what changed without asking the user (unless it is ambiguous).
  • If .git does not exist, log "no git history" and proceed with compliance validation only.

Phase 1: Read the CONTEXT_SPEC (MANDATORY)

  • Read: ./context/CONTEXT_SPEC.md
  • This step CANNOT be skipped. Every edit to the context docs MUST respect this spec.
  • If CONTEXT_SPEC.md does not exist, inform the user and suggest /context-init.

Phase 2: Validate Compliance of the Existing Docs

For EACH doc (metaspec.md, index.md, timeline.md), check compliance with the CONTEXT_SPEC:

2a. metaspec.md check

  • Read: ./context/metaspec.md
  • Grep for the required sections: ## IDENTITY, ## STACK, ## ARCHITECTURE, ## CURRENT STATE
  • Compliant: all 4 sections present → proceed to Phase 3
  • NOT compliant: missing sections → go to Phase 2d

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.
