new-sop

new-sop is a skill for Claude Code from danielrosehill/Claude-SOP-Writer-Plugin. It costs 85 tokens per session (601 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for starting a new Standard Operating Procedure from a built-in template. An SOP is a structured document of steps and guidance, and the available templates cover first aid, emergencies, household procedures, troubleshooting, and recipes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create a titled Typst SOP with frontmatter and section placeholders, choose an appropriate template, and save it under the project’s SOP directory.
Why use it?
It gives a new procedure a consistent structure and project-local file instead of requiring you to create the document layout from scratch.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} variable.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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

new-sop 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 12d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 45 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

new-sop

Scaffold a new SOP from a template into the current project. The plugin does not own a global SOPs directory — files are written into the project the user is working in.

Inputs to gather

  1. Template — one of:
    • first-aid — clinical procedures (e.g. choking, burns, CPR adjuncts)
    • emergency — incident response (e.g. fire, siren, power outage)
    • household-procedure — routine domestic ops (e.g. monthly inspection, water shutoff)
    • troubleshooting-flow — diagnose-then-act technical procedures
    • recipe-method — strict ordered steps with prep / equipment / timing
  2. Title — short human-readable title.
  3. Slug — kebab-case filename stem. Default: derived from title.
  4. Output directory — default sops/ relative to the project root. Create if missing.
  5. Audience (optional) — who's expected to follow this (e.g. "household members", "on-call engineer").

What to do

  1. Resolve the templates directory: prefer a project-local templates/sop/<template>.typ if present, otherwise fall back to the plugin's bundled template at ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/templates/sop/<template>.typ.
  2. Read the template, substitute frontmatter:
    • title — from input
    • revision1.0
    • date — today's date in ISO format
    • audience — from input or omit
    • slug — from input
  3. Write the result to <output-dir>/<slug>.typ in the current project.
  4. Do NOT compile. The user runs compile separately when ready.
  5. Print the path to the new file and a one-line summary of the next sections to fill in.

Templates location

Bundled templates live in ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/templates/sop/. The user can override per-project by creating templates/sop/<template>.typ in their project — that takes precedence.

Notes

  • The user may not have Typst installed yet. This skill only writes source — it doesn't compile.
  • If the project has no sops/ directory, create it.
  • If a file with the same slug already exists, ask before overwriting.

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.
