realm-concise

realm-concise is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from blackmo18/realm. It costs 108 tokens per session (1,141 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A refactoring queue for finding oversized source files, sometimes called “god files,” that are hard to maintain. A script scans the project and records candidates and their review status in project files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to scan for large files, choose the next file to review, decide whether to split a file, plan the change, and mark work as completed or intentionally skipped.
Why use it?
It turns an occasional search for troublesome files into a persistent, ordered list. This helps avoid repeatedly scanning the project or choosing refactoring work without recorded context.

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

realm-concise 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 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/concise.py, scripts/test_concise.py), 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 — 77 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

realm-concise

Persistent god-file triage. Crawler finds candidates, script remembers the queue, LLM only reasons about the one file being actively reviewed.

Host invocation: Claude Code and Gemini use /realm-concise; Codex uses $realm-concise. Resolve realmConciseSkillDir to the directory containing this SKILL.md; use <realmConciseSkillDir>/scripts/concise.py for every script call.

When to Use

Trigger Example
Periodic tech-debt check /realm-concise, "what's a good file to refactor next"
Query the standing queue /realm-concise next
Decide if a specific file is worth splitting /realm-concise recommend <file>
Ready to act on an approved candidate /realm-concise plan <file>
Just landed a refactor /realm-concise done <file>
Deliberately leave a file alone /realm-concise ignore <file> --reason "..."

When NOT to Use

  • Want an ADR for a decision unrelated to file size → /realm-planning directly.
  • Want live code relationships, not a refactor queue → graphify query/explain.
  • Want past why on a completed refactor → /realm-recall "why split <file>".
  • No .realm/realm-state.json in the project at all → this skill still works (state is independent of the realm ADR pipeline), but /realm-concise plan needs realm-planning's vault, so run /realm-forge first if the vault was never bootstrapped.

Ground rules (apply across every subskill)

  1. Script does the counting. Every LOC count, fan-in resolution, churn lookup, and state mutation goes through scripts/concise.py. LOC means physical source lines containing code; blank lines, comments, and documentation comments (including JSDoc) are excluded. Never hand-count lines or hand-edit .realm/concise-state.json.
  2. Two active projects, always pass --root. Default targets are knowledge-craft and backoffice-main (per workspace CLAUDE.md). A subcommand naming a file infers the project from the path prefix.
  3. Gate keeping is not optional. approve, plan, and done all require the user to explicitly name the file and the action in the same turn — enforced in detail by lifecycle/PROCEDURE.md.
  4. plan never implements. It hands off to /realm-planning and stops once a plan returns. Implementation is a separate, later, separately-approved action.

What ships with it

8 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.
