cite-sources

cite-sources is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from cacheplane/dawnai. It costs 11 tokens per session (112 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Instructions for attributing factual claims to documents in a research collection. Each claim must end with a citation showing the specific workspace document that supports it.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when writing reports from a document corpus, selecting the most relevant source, citing multiple supporting documents, or flagging claims that need an external source.
Why use it?
It makes the source of every statement visible and prevents unsupported claims from being presented as facts. It also explains how to handle information missing from the collection.

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

cite-sources 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 4d 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

Cite sources

Every factual sentence in a report must end with a citation to the document it came from, written as a workspace path in square brackets: [corpus/<file>.md].

  • Cite the most specific document, not a general one.
  • If two documents support a claim, cite both.
  • Never assert a fact you did not read in a cited document. If the corpus does not cover it, say so and consider requesting an external fetch.
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.
