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

marketplace-dev 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 6d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 5 executable files (hooks/post_edit_sync_check.sh, hooks/post_edit_validate.sh, scripts/check_doc_skill_lists.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 401 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

marketplace-dev

Convert a Claude Code skills repository into an official plugin marketplace so users can install skills via claude plugin marketplace add and get auto-updates.

Input: a repo with skills/ directories containing SKILL.md files. Output: .claude-plugin/marketplace.json + validated + installation-tested + PR-ready.

Route the task before editing

User intent Route
Create marketplace support for a repo that does not have it Follow Phases 0–4 below
Add or update an ordinary plugin entry Follow “Maintaining an existing marketplace,” then Phase 3
Consolidate standalone skills into a suite, create a suite from existing skills, move a skill between suites, or rename a skill while moving it Read references/suite_consolidation_workflow.md completely and follow it instead of the generic Phase 4 constraints
Reconcile installed caches after a merged suite migration Invoke daymade-skill:skill-governance and use its post-migration workflow; do not mutate cache state here
Audit the whole repository across code, docs, security, PRs, issues, and manifest integrity Invoke marketplace-health-check:marketplace-health-check only when the user requested a broad health check; it is not a prerequisite for a targeted suite migration

Phase 0: Evidence Intake

Before editing an existing marketplace, collect evidence instead of relying on the default template:

  1. Read the current .claude-plugin/marketplace.json.
  2. Read this repo's marketplace rules (CLAUDE.md, README install section, changelog).
  3. Read official docs for marketplace/plugin path semantics.
  4. Use the current conversation as evidence. Mine earlier local Claude Code sessions only when the user explicitly asks for or approves that private source.

When that history source is approved, each project's sessions live under ~/.claude/projects/<escaped-cwd>/:

  • Top-level files: <session-id>.jsonl
  • Subagent transcripts: <session-id>/subagents/agent-*.jsonl

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.
