hk-shift-changelog

hk-shift-changelog is a skill for Claude Code from deepklarity/harness-kit. It costs 111 tokens per session (820 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A living HTML handover page that summarizes what happened in a project while someone was away. It records the current state, important events, decisions, and any work that still needs attention.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create and maintain a project changelog, record progress and incidents, explain decisions, and show whether anything is blocked on the returning person.
Why use it?
It gives a returning teammate a quick way to understand project changes without reading every message or log. The page is rewritten at meaningful transitions so it stays current.

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

hk-shift-changelog 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 64 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Shift-handover changelog (project-agnostic)

One living HTML page, rewritten (never appended) at every meaningful transition, redeployed to the SAME artifact URL every time. The reader is a teammate back from sleep or a weekend: they want the state of the world, not a log.

Where it lives

  • File: one stable path in the repo (e.g. docs/<area>/changelog.html), committed, so any future session can find and redeploy it.
  • URL: record the artifact URL in the project's durable operator notes (state/RESUME file) the first time you publish. Every later publish passes that url — never mint a second artifact for the same duty.
  • Favicon: pick one emoji the first time; never change it (users find the tab by icon).

Structure (top-down by how fast the reader wants out)

  1. Header — project + "shift handover", a stamp saying what period it covers (relative, not raw timestamps).
  2. TL;DR box — 3-5 sentences: what changed, what's running, whether anything is blocked on the reader. If they read nothing else, this suffices.
  3. What happened, in order — timeline entries: a short label (wave close / incident / directive / decision), a bold headline, 1-3 sentences, and a status pill (DONE / RUNNING / VERIFIED / WAITING). Every user directive gets its own entry so they can verify they were understood.
  4. Scoreboard / metrics — whatever the project tracks (bucket scores, suites, costs), as a table with movement + evidence, never bare deltas.
  5. Waiting on you — a numbered list of decisions only the human can make. This section earns the page its keep; keep it brutally current.
  6. Footer — "living document, rewritten each transition" + where the ground truth lives.

Design rules

Load the artifact-design skill before first authoring. Beyond it:

  • Utilitarian treatment: real hierarchy, quiet type, one accent; both themes via CSS tokens (prefers-color-scheme + data-theme overrides).
  • Bind background AND text color to the SAME token set on html, body with !important. The artifact shell may force its own body background; if your ink tokens go dark while its ground stays light, the page is unreadable (seen live). Background and ink must move together or not at all.
  • Self-contained (CSP): no external fonts/scripts; system font stacks.
  • Tables wrapped in overflow-x:auto; digits get tabular-nums.
  • Plain language throughout; no ids or jargon the reader must decode; name things by what they mean, cite ids only as secondary mono detail.

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.
