cco-claudemd

cco-claudemd is a skill for Claude Code from egorfedorov/claude-context-optimizer. It costs 20 tokens per session (227 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A checker for CLAUDE.md files, which contain instructions for an AI coding assistant working in a project.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to measure file and section size, find duplicate lines and long examples, and get suggestions for shortening the instructions.
Why use it?
It finds unnecessarily long, repeated, or verbose instructions that use up the assistant's context and may make the file harder to maintain.

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

cco-claudemd 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.

What it actually says

CLAUDE.md Analyzer

Analyze CLAUDE.md files in the current project for token bloat and optimization opportunities.

Run the analyzer:

node ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/src/claudemd-analyzer.js "${CWD}"

Present the output to the user. The analyzer checks for:

  • Overall size — files over 2K tokens get flagged
  • Large sections — sections over 1K tokens
  • Duplicate lines — repeated content
  • Verbose patterns — "please make sure to", "it is important that", etc.
  • Long code blocks — examples over 20 lines
  • Excessive whitespace — empty lines eating tokens

For each issue found, explain the savings potential and suggest a concrete fix.

If the user wants to apply fixes, help them edit the CLAUDE.md directly using the Edit tool.

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.
