website-publisher

website-publisher is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Ckokoski/AuthorAgent. It costs 29 tokens per session (1,513 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for running an author website connected to your books and writing projects. It can build the site, create blog drafts from project material, and send the finished site to a hosting service.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to register and configure author sites, link projects, publish completed books, draft project-based blog posts, and deploy rendered sites to Netlify, Vercel, Cloudflare Pages, rsync, or a ZIP file.
Why use it?
It keeps your book list and website connected, so you do not have to update and publish them separately. It is meant for a simple author site, not a full content-management system with comments, forms, or detailed analytics.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • high Tool Misuse · line 60
    Tool parameters are crafted to achieve unintended or unsafe behavior. Parameter abuse can bypass intended safety checks (e.g. shell=True, --force, dangerous glob patterns).
    Fix: Validate all tool parameters against an allowlist. Reject dangerous parameter values (shell=True, --force, -rf /) and use safe defaults.

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

website-publisher 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 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.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 156 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Website Publisher

The management layer on top of AuthorAgent's static-site builder. Generates your site, keeps it in sync with your books, drafts blog posts from your project artifacts, and pushes the rendered site to your host.

This skill is deliberately not a CMS. AuthorAgent is for producing books — shipping a working site is part of that, but maintaining a fully interactive web property isn't. Authors who need comments, forms, ESP integration UIs, or deep analytics should keep using the WordPress / Squarespace / Ghost they already have.

What it does

1. Sites — register, link, manage

A "site" is a deployable unit (one author or one pen name typically). Each site has:

  • A config (slug, name, tagline, base URL, primary color, social links)
  • A list of linked projects (when those projects complete, their books auto-publish to the site's books list)
  • A list of blog posts (drafts + published — drafted by this skill)
  • A deploy target (Netlify / Vercel / Cloudflare Pages / rsync / manual zip / none)
POST /api/sites           Create a site
GET  /api/sites           List all sites + freshness status
PATCH /api/sites/:id       Update config / linked projects / deploy target
DELETE /api/sites/:id      Remove a site
POST /api/sites/:id/link-project   { projectId }

2. Auto-add books on project completion

When a book-production or novel-pipeline project completes AND the project is linked to one or more sites, the book is auto-added to each site's books list. Idempotent on slug — re-completing the project updates the existing entry.

The author still has to render + deploy explicitly — auto-publishing a brand-new book without review would be too aggressive. The dashboard shows each site's pendingChanges count so the author knows when a render is needed.

3. Blog post drafter

Four post types, each pulling different project artifacts into a focused prompt:

Type What it produces
release_announcement New-release post: 500-700 words, conversational, with buy-link CTAs
behind_the_scenes Process post: 700-900 words pulling from chapter summaries + user-model + craft-critic flags
excerpt Excerpt-with-tease post: lead-in → verbatim scene → tease → CTA
teaser Coming-soon post: 350-500 words building anticipation without overselling

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.
