ai-update

ai-update is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from BostonOrange/claude-code-framework. It costs 34 tokens per session (484 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for committing changes to AI-related project files and opening a GitHub pull request, which is a proposed change for review. It covers files such as project instructions, skills, templates, and agent settings.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after updating CLAUDE.md, skill definitions or references, templates, or Claude Code settings. It creates an AI-named branch, commits the files, pushes it, and opens a pull request.
Why use it?
It keeps AI process changes separate from ordinary code changes and packages them for review. It stops when no relevant AI files have changed.

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

ai-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 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

AI Update

Create a feature branch and open a PR for AI process/tooling changes.

Usage

/ai-update                           # Auto-detect changed AI files
/ai-update "add validate skill"      # With a description

Scope

AI process files:

Path Content
CLAUDE.md Project-level instructions
.claude/skills/*/SKILL.md Skill definitions
.claude/skills/*/references/*.md Skill references
.claude/skills/*/examples/*.md Skill examples
.claude/settings.json Claude Code settings

Process

1. Identify Changes

git status --short

Filter to AI-scoped paths. If no AI files changed, stop.

2. Create Branch

Branch naming: ai/{short-description}

git fetch origin {{BASE_BRANCH}}
git checkout -b ai/{slug} origin/{{BASE_BRANCH}}

3. Stage AI Files

Stage only AI-scoped files:

git add CLAUDE.md
git add .claude/skills/

4. Commit

chore(ai): {short description}

{bullet list of changes}

5. Push & Create PR

git push -u origin ai/{slug}
gh pr create --base {{BASE_BRANCH}} --assignee @me \
  --title "chore(ai): {description}" \
  --body "$(cat <<'EOF'
## Summary
- {changes}

## Files Changed
- {list}
EOF
)"

Edge Cases

Scenario Behavior
No AI files changed Stop, inform user
Mixed AI + code changes Stage only AI files, warn about unstaged code
Already on ai/* branch Reuse it
  • /add-reference — add knowledge docs (often shipped via this skill)
  • /validate — code validation (often shipped via this skill)
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.
