workspace-surface-audit is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from cybernetix-lab/moss-harness. It costs 63 tokens per session (1,093 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only audit of a coding workspace and computer setup, including repositories, connected services, plugins, environment configuration, and available automation surfaces.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before configuring Claude Code or adding automation to recommend suitable skills, hooks, agents, plugins, and operator workflows.
Why use it?
It shows what the environment can actually do and identifies useful missing capabilities without changing the setup.

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

workspace-surface-audit 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 10d 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.

Workspace Surface Audit

Read-only audit skill for answering the question "what can this workspace and machine actually do right now, and what should we add or enable next?"

This is the ECC-native answer to setup-audit plugins. It does not modify files unless the user explicitly asks for follow-up implementation.

When to Use

  • User says "set up Claude Code", "recommend automations", "what plugins or MCPs should I use?", or "what am I missing?"
  • Auditing a machine or repo before installing more skills, hooks, or connectors
  • Comparing official marketplace plugins against ECC-native coverage
  • Reviewing .env, .mcp.json, plugin settings, or connected-app surfaces to find missing workflow layers
  • Deciding whether a capability should be a skill, hook, agent, MCP, or external connector

Non-Negotiable Rules

  • Never print secret values. Surface only provider names, capability names, file paths, and whether a key or config exists.
  • Prefer ECC-native workflows over generic "install another plugin" advice when ECC can reasonably own the surface.
  • Treat external plugins as benchmarks and inspiration, not authoritative product boundaries.
  • Separate three things clearly:
    • already available now
    • available but not wrapped well in ECC
    • not available and would require a new integration

Audit Inputs

Inspect only the files and settings needed to answer the question well:

  1. Repo surface
    • package.json, lockfiles, language markers, framework config, README.md
    • .mcp.json, .lsp.json, .claude/settings*.json, .codex/*
    • AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, install manifests, hook configs
  2. Environment surface
    • .env* files in the active repo and obvious adjacent ECC workspaces
    • Surface only key names such as STRIPE_API_KEY, TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN, FAL_KEY
  3. Connected tool surface
    • Installed plugins, enabled connectors, MCP servers, LSPs, and app integrations
  4. ECC surface
    • Existing skills, commands, hooks, agents, and install modules that already cover the need

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
