infrastructure-overview

infrastructure-overview is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from docxology/template. It costs 80 tokens per session (2,013 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide to the reusable infrastructure layer in a research codebase. It explains how shared modules and project-specific code fit together, and how agents can find and use them.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when editing the infrastructure/ folder, importing modules, discovering available skills, or connecting build, validation, rendering, and publishing steps.
Why use it?
It removes the need to guess where code belongs or how the project’s two layers connect. It also helps prevent scripts from duplicating logic that should live in shared modules.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: mentions Claude Code; mentions AGENTS.md.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is uv run python scripts/runner/execute_pipeline.py --project template_code_project --mode core.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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

infrastructure-overview 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 7d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 35 executable files (__init__.py, _version.py, autoresearch/__init__.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 — 124 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Infrastructure Layer

The infrastructure/ package provides generic, reusable functionality for research projects. All business logic resides here (Layer 1) or in project-specific src/ (Layer 2). Scripts are thin orchestrators that coordinate these modules.

Finding skills (Cursor and other agents)

  • Hub: This file lists every subpackage skill and a module map.
  • Manifest: .cursor/skill_manifest.json lists every discovered first-party skill (name, description, path); regenerate with uv run python -m infrastructure.skills write.
  • Search: default discovery covers infrastructure/**/SKILL.md, scripts/**/SKILL.md, public projects/templates/**/SKILL.md including .agents/skills, public resource-pool template skills under fonds/templates/, rules/templates/, and tools/templates/, plus .cursor/skills/.
  • In Cursor: @infrastructure/SKILL.md or @infrastructure/<module>/SKILL.md to load context; pair with the matching AGENTS.md for API tables.
  • Frontmatter: Each SKILL.md has YAML name and description for routing (see also the table in infrastructure/README.md).

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.
