pretext is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from CodeInfinity1/Stram. It costs 34 tokens per session (512 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of procedures for using Pretext, a Stram tool area for creating media plans and related files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare storyboards, sound specifications, diagrams, image or video prompts, and other media artifacts.
Why use it?
It helps turn a media request into checked inputs, structured instructions, and approved local or provider actions.

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

pretext 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 53 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Pretext

This is a Stram-native skill. It is authored inside this repository and uses only Stram-owned tools, approval gates, artifacts, and optional dependency records.

When To Use

Use this skill when the user asks for pretext planning, execution, verification, troubleshooting, or artifact creation inside Stram.

Tool Map

  • tool_search
  • tool_describe
  • capability_surface
  • write_note
  • native_security_policy
  • tool_output_store
  • pretext_project_prepare
  • media_storyboard_create
  • media_storyboard_inspect
  • sound_spec_create
  • diagram_artifact_create
  • image_generate
  • video_generate
  • vision_analyze
  • optional_dependency_installer

Workflow

  1. Clarify the user's concrete pretext objective, target environment, credentials already configured, and expected artifact or action.
  2. Use tool_search or capability_surface to find the native Stram tools for the domain before choosing a path.
  3. Run safe inspection/readiness steps first and write bounded notes or artifacts under the workspace or data directory.
  4. Create native briefs, storyboards, SVG/contact sheets, sound specs, prompts, or local code artifacts before attempting provider generation.
  5. Use optional dependency requests for domain engines such as ComfyUI, Manim, p5.js, TouchDesigner, Blender, or HyperFrames instead of silently installing them.
  6. Summarize what ran, what was skipped, what remains blocked, and the exact files or records created.

Safety And Boundaries

  • Do not import, execute, or vendor upstream assistant code for this skill.
  • Do not store raw secrets; store only environment variable names, secret references, or readiness booleans.
  • Use approvals for writes, sends, purchases, desktop control, process launches, provider calls, and destructive operations.
  • Respect licensing and avoid claiming a generated asset exists until a local file or provider result is present.

Verification

  • Record concrete evidence paths or tool outputs before claiming completion.
  • Prefer dry-run or prepared artifacts when credentials, hardware, licenses, or live services are missing.
  • If a provider-specific runtime is not configured, report the missing credential or binary by name and stop before live execution.
