diffs

diffs is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from cohen-liel/hivemind. It costs 32 tokens per session (324 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of diffs, Apache-2.0.

A tool for producing shareable views or files that show the difference between two versions of text or code. It can render a unified patch as an interactive viewer or an image or PDF.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to present before-and-after text, review patches, or create a rendered diff artifact for someone else to inspect.
Why use it?
It makes code changes easier to inspect and share than a hand-written summary of edits.

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

diffs 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 5d 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

When you need to show edits as a real diff, prefer the diffs tool instead of writing a manual summary.

The diffs tool accepts either before + after text, or a unified patch string.

Use mode=view when you want an interactive gateway-hosted viewer. After the tool returns, use details.viewerUrl with the canvas tool via canvas present or canvas navigate.

Use mode=file when you need a rendered file artifact. Set fileFormat=png (default) or fileFormat=pdf. The tool result includes details.filePath.

For large or high-fidelity files, use fileQuality (standard|hq|print) and optionally override fileScale/fileMaxWidth.

When you need to deliver the rendered file to a user or channel, do not rely on the raw tool-result renderer. Instead, call the message tool and pass details.filePath through path or filePath.

Use mode=both when you want both the gateway viewer URL and the rendered artifact.

If the user has configured diffs plugin defaults, prefer omitting mode, theme, layout, and related presentation options unless you need to override them for this specific diff.

Include path for before/after text when you know the file name.

Changes

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.
