.claude/skills/b4-installer/SKILL.md

b4-installer is a skill for Claude Code from DanielLavrushin/b4. It costs 130 tokens per session (1,289 once invoked), scanned C, original, GPL-3.0.

A workflow for changing b4's POSIX shell installer and its platform, service, feature, action, and helper code. POSIX shell is a portable shell style, while BusyBox is a small command-line toolkit used on many routers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to change install.sh components, support router platforms and services, update installer features or actions, or modify download and checksum helpers.
Why use it?
It helps preserve installation on constrained router systems and avoids shell or command features those systems may not support. It also covers download and checksum behavior.

About the project

B4 is a Linux network packet-processing service that changes network traffic so deep packet inspection systems cannot identify or block its connections. It is used on routers, servers, and desktops to bypass DPI-based blocking, and a router installation can cover devices across the local network. The catalogue lists 12 skills associated with B4.

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 C, and why

b4-installer scanned grade C with 2 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 7d 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.

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.
