trellis-sync

trellis-sync is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from craigcossairt/trellis. It costs 67 tokens per session (98 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A procedure for comparing a project copied from a GitHub template with later changes in that template. It reports which files changed upstream and applies only the updates the user selects.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check template status and selectively bring in upstream file changes. It also reports when the check cannot be trusted, such as when the upstream source is unreachable.
Why use it?
A copied template is not automatically connected to its source, so ordinary Git pull cannot show or apply later template changes safely.

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

trellis-sync 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 14d 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.
