czml-clock

czml-clock is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from CesiumGS/cesiumjs-ai-starter-app. It costs 56 tokens per session (529 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A CZML document clock sets the time range, current time, playback speed, and end behavior for a time-based Cesium globe scene.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to define when a scene starts and stops, how quickly it plays, whether it loops, and how its clock advances.
Why use it?
It keeps the viewer's timeline and animation behavior explicit instead of leaving start, stop, speed, or looping rules undefined.

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

czml-clock 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 12d 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

CZML Document Clock

  • The "document" packet (always the first packet) MAY carry a "clock": { "interval": "<ISO8601 start>/<ISO8601 end>", "currentTime": "<ISO8601>", "multiplier": <number>, "range": "LOOP_STOP" | "CLAMPED" | "UNBOUNDED", "step": "SYSTEM_CLOCK_MULTIPLIER" | "SYSTEM_CLOCK" | "TICK_DEPENDENT" } to populate the viewer's timeline for time-dynamic scenes.
  • Whenever the intent specifies playback behavior (a start/stop time, a time multiplier, or looping), you MUST add this "clock" object to the document packet with exactly those values — do not omit it.
  • "range": "LOOP_STOP" loops back to the interval start when it reaches the end; "CLAMPED" holds at the end time; "UNBOUNDED" keeps advancing past the end.
  • "step": "SYSTEM_CLOCK_MULTIPLIER" (the default) advances "currentTime" by "multiplier" times the elapsed real (wall-clock) time between ticks — use this unless the intent asks for a different stepping mode.

Example: named document metadata with a clock and one entity

[
  {
    "id": "document",
    "name": "Vehicle Tracking",
    "version": "1.0",
    "clock": {
      "interval": "2012-03-15T10:00:00Z/2012-03-16T10:00:00Z",
      "currentTime": "2012-03-15T10:00:00Z",
      "multiplier": 60,
      "range": "LOOP_STOP",
      "step": "SYSTEM_CLOCK_MULTIPLIER"
    }
  },
  {
    "id": "pt-1",
    "position": { "cartographicDegrees": [5, 15, 0] },
    "point": { "pixelSize": 10, "color": { "rgba": [255, 255, 255, 255] } }

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.
