Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/.

This is Chorus-AIDLC/Chorus's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on Chorus itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything Chorus configures →

About the project

Chorus is a coordination harness for teams of coding agents and humans, combining agent orchestration, task tracking, permissions, observability, and recovery in one workflow. It is for collaborative software development where agents propose changes and people verify them before delivery, and the catalogue entries provide its skills, hooks, agents, commands, MCP integration, plugin, and configuration.

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 C, and why

plugin-maintenance scanned grade C with 2 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 9d 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.

Reads agent configuration directoriesmediumAgent snooping

.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

chorus/SKILL.md ← Codex port — mentions $skill syntax, ~/.codex/config.toml

Reads MCP configurationmediumAgent snooping

mcp.json carries server URLs and auth tokens; reading it lets a mod discover and abuse other integrations.

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.
