hypothesis-tracking

hypothesis-tracking is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from blisspixel/primr. It costs 38 tokens per session (291 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A research-memory tool for storing a company’s working hypotheses and the evidence behind them. It records whether each hypothesis is untested, validated, invalidated, or confirmed.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to retrieve what is already known about a company, validate a claim, or save a research finding for later work.
Why use it?
It prevents repeated research and keeps assumptions separate from established facts. It also preserves the evidence trail when a confidence level 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

hypothesis-tracking 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.

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

Hypothesis Tracking

Purpose

Use this skill to manage durable research memory for a company. Hypotheses are a working memory layer, not final truth.

Workflow

  1. Retrieve hypotheses before starting duplicate research.

  2. Present confidence clearly: untested, validated, invalidated, or confirmed.

  3. Update confidence only when new evidence exists.

  4. Keep evidence strings short, factual, and source-oriented.

Operating Rules

  • Distinguish known facts from open hypotheses.

  • Preserve the evidence trail when confidence changes.

  • Prefer updating an existing hypothesis over creating duplicates.

  • Expired or weak hypotheses should be re-validated before being presented as current.

Example


get_hypotheses(company="ExampleCo", topic="technology")

save_hypothesis(company="ExampleCo", hypothesis_id="h_001", confidence="validated", evidence="CTO interview confirms AWS usage")

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.
