prepare-data

prepare-data is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from cruxible-ai/cruxible. It costs 37 tokens per session (969 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A preparation workflow for understanding and cleaning source files before modeling or loading them into Cruxible. It checks what each file represents, how rows are defined, and how files can be joined.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inventory and profile files, validate keys and relationships, identify required transformations, and produce cleaned inputs or a preparation plan.
Why use it?
It reduces errors caused by misunderstood columns, duplicate keys, incompatible row levels, or unsafe joins.

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

prepare-data 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 11d 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.

Prepare Data

Use this skill before create-state, and before overlay-and-fit whenever local source files need to be loaded into an overlay.

Cruxible validates, loads, and evaluates. File cleaning and transforms are external.

This skill is about source-data preparation only:

  • profiling files
  • validating keys and joins
  • checking grain and cardinality
  • identifying cleaning and transform work
  • producing cleaned files or a preparation plan

It is not for cross-dataset matching or governed relationship design. Those happen later in the state-building flow.

Use your own tools freely here: Python, Polars, SQL, spreadsheets, or shell tooling. The goal is to hand the later skills source files that are understood, defensible, and ready.

Workflow

Phase 1: Inventory the files

For each file, identify:

  • what the file appears to represent
  • whether it looks like an entity source, deterministic relationship source, reference file, or unknown source
  • what its likely row grain is
  • what other files it seems to join to

Do not assume the target state shape is already known. This skill is part of discovering it.

Phase 2: Profile each file

For every source file, inspect:

  • row count
  • columns
  • dtypes
  • null counts
  • sample rows
  • obvious schema inconsistencies across files of the same kind

Do not stop at one-line summaries. The point is to understand what later modeling and loading work would actually consume.

Phase 3: Validate entity keys and relationship joins

For likely entity files, check:

  • duplicate primary keys
  • null or empty IDs
  • whitespace, prefix garbage, or sentinel values in IDs
  • whether the file grain is really one row per entity

For likely deterministic relationship files, check:

  • source and target key columns exist
  • foreign keys actually resolve against the referenced entity files
  • duplicate (from, to, relationship_type) rows
  • whether the file grain is really one row per relationship

Across files, check:

  • shared join columns exist where expected
  • values actually overlap
  • types are compatible
  • normalization work is needed before joins can succeed

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.

prepare-data is a skill published in the GitHub repository cruxible-ai/cruxible (17 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 37 tokens to every session and 969 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
