gauntlet

gauntlet is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from coder/xum. It costs 57 tokens per session (1,556 once invoked), scanned A, original, AGPL-3.0.

A code-quality repair skill for findings about duplicated code and mutation-test failures. Mutation testing changes code in controlled ways to check whether tests detect the changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when a quality report identifies a near-duplicate or a surviving mutant, or before copying and modifying a function.
Why use it?
It helps address two common quality problems: copying similar functions instead of sharing code, and tests that pass even when behavior is accidentally changed.

About the project

coder/xum is a desktop application for running coding agents in isolated, parallel workspaces, either locally, through Git worktrees, or on remote servers over SSH. It helps developers manage multiple agents, models, code changes, reviews, costs, and agent status from one interface. The catalogue skills, instructions, agents, settings, and command define workflows for using Xum.

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

gauntlet 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 2d 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 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.
