cpv-batch-fix-protocol

cpv-batch-fix-protocol is a skill for Claude Code from Emasoft/claude-plugins-validation. It costs 82 tokens per session (1,764 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A schema reference for a protocol that divides plugin fixes into separate work units and combines their results. It documents the files and status data exchanged by the planner, helper agents, and aggregator.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when implementing or extending consumers of the batch-fix protocol, including shard plans, per-shard manifests, and per-shard status files.
Why use it?
It prevents different parts of a parallel fixing workflow from disagreeing about file formats or responsibilities. It also explains when splitting work is appropriate.

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

cpv-batch-fix-protocol 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.

cpv-batch-fix-protocol

Overview

/cpv-batch-fix slices a plugin's validation findings into parallel-fix shards and dispatches N cpv-plugin-fixer-agent agents from the main session — one per shard, each with a fresh context window whose size depends on cpv-plugin-fixer-agent.model (per-model — never assume a fixed limit). This skill documents the data contract that ties the planner, the shard agents, and the aggregator together. Loaded by cpv-plugin-fixer-agent (when it sees mode: batch_shard in its context block) and by the /cpv-batch-fix slash command body.

See JSON schemas for the three file formats and TRDD-71e68ab5 (design/tasks/TRDD-20260519_114050+0200-71e68ab5-batch-fix-parallel-sharding.md) for the design rationale.

Fork vs fresh worker — the token-honest dispatch choice (TRDD-GVMOKJBB)

Fan-out is a LAST resort, not a default (cost ≈ turns × per-turn-context):

  1. One plugin that fits one context → NO fan-out. Sequential fix-as-you-go in ONE lean fixer (read each file once, fix in the same turn) is cheapest — a single warm context reused. Forking merely for parallelism here costs N× the context (a wall-clock tradeoff, NOT a token saving).
  2. A plugin that EXCEEDS one context → fan out, and pick the worker by the dispatcher:
    • subagent_type:"fork" (Agent tool) — ONLY from a LEAN dispatcher that already loaded the exact context the worker needs (the fix skill + the ledger). A fork inherits the dispatcher's WHOLE conversation at cache-read rate, so it pays off only when that conversation is small and relevant. NEVER fork the bloated main session (it carries all of main's skills/MCP/CLAUDE.md forward).
    • Fresh lean worker + on-disk slice — the correct choice from a bloated/cold context. The /cpv-batch-fix path spawns N cpv-plugin-fixer-agents from the MAIN session, so this is the batch default: hand each worker its shard manifest / ledger slice ON DISK (a file path, not context inheritance) with a curated tool surface (no MCP).
  3. NEVER a skill context: fork. That runs a skill in an ISOLATED fresh subagent with no conversation history (docs: skills#run-skills-in-a-subagent) → it COLD-writes cache = wastes tokens. It is the OPPOSITE of the Agent-tool fork despite the shared word.

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.

cpv-batch-fix-protocol is a skill published in the GitHub repository Emasoft/claude-plugins-validation (4 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 82 tokens to every session and 1,764 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
