rootnode-handoff-trigger-check

rootnode-handoff-trigger-check is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from drayline/rootnode-skills. It costs 209 tokens per session (5,486 once invoked), scanned A, original, no licence file.

A readiness check for handing designed work from a chat to an autonomous system such as Claude Code, n8n, or another agent runtime. It evaluates seven conditions, including a stable specification, checks for correctness, work breakdown, rollback cost, and available token budget.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to decide whether a design conversation is ready for autonomous execution and to identify what must be clarified or prepared first.
Why use it?
It helps reveal missing details before an automated system starts working. This lowers the chance of handing off work that cannot be verified, safely reversed, or completed within its limits.

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

rootnode-handoff-trigger-check 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 1mo 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.

A licence we could not identify

The repository carries a LICENSE file, but it is custom or dual enough that GitHub cannot name it and neither can this catalogue. Unknown terms are not permission, so the body is not copied here. Read the licence at the source and decide for yourself.

What ships with it

7 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
