dx-hub-init

dx-hub-init is a skill for Claude Code from easingthemes/dx-aem-flow. It costs 56 tokens per session (4,310 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A setup tool for creating a hub directory that coordinates work across several code repositories. It finds nearby repositories, combines their settings, and checks that the command-line tools can work together.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when setting up hub mode for the first time, selecting repositories to include, creating shared configuration files, and optionally creating a VS Code workspace.
Why use it?
It removes the manual work of preparing a shared workspace for a multi-repository project. It also catches incompatible setup before orchestration begins.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions subagents.

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is - **repo-alpha** → `../repo-alpha` (branch: develop).

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 B, and why

dx-hub-init scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 2d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 476 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You set up a .hub/ directory that orchestrates work across multiple repos via dx-core hub mode.
