cpv-batch-validate

cpv-batch-validate is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Emasoft/claude-plugins-validation. It costs 85 tokens per session (1,406 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A parallel validator for checking many Claude Code plugins. It sends one checking agent to each plugin and combines the results into a status table.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to validate individual plugins, whole marketplaces, GitHub URLs, local paths, or lists of inputs.
Why use it?
It removes the need to validate a large collection of plugins one at a time. The results can be reviewed together after the checks finish.

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-validate 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 3d 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-validate

Overview

Parallel-validation skill for a fleet of Claude Code plugins. Resolves the user's input via scripts/cpv_marketplace_input.py (every shape from §Inputs), builds a batch plan via scripts/cpv_batch_orchestrator.py, dispatches one cpv-plugin-validator-agent subagent per plugin in batch_validate mode, and aggregates per-plugin status JSONs into a CMS-shaped status_table spec which is queued via scripts/print_menu.py. The claude-menu-system Stop hook emits the table to the user post-turn (zero token cost — never enters the agent transcript).

The full orchestrator body lives in the plugin's commands/cpv-batch-validate.md slash-command file. This SKILL.md is the canonical entry point when the skill is invoked from cpv-the-skills-menu (CPV agents) or from the /cpv-batch-validate slash command directly.

Prerequisites

  • claude-plugins-validation plugin installed (provides scripts/cpv_marketplace_input.py, scripts/cpv_batch_orchestrator.py, scripts/print_menu.py (the claude-menu-system bridge), and the cpv-plugin-validator-agent agent).
  • claude-menu-system plugin installed (the Stop-hook menu emitter that print_menu.py queues specs for). Declared as a hard dependency in CPV's plugin.json; print_menu.py fails fast with an install hint if missing.
  • For URL inputs: git on PATH and network access to github.com so the resolver can git clone --depth 1 each plugin/marketplace into ${TMPDIR}/cpv-batch-input-<uuid>/.
  • For marketplace inputs: the marketplace must ship a parseable .claude-plugin/marketplace.json at its root listing one or more plugins.

Inputs

Shape Example
Single plugin (local) the absolute path of the plugin root
Single plugin (URL) https://github.com/owner/plugin or owner/plugin
Single skill (local) a folder whose root holds a SKILL-shaped file
Single skill (URL) a github repo whose root is a skill
Skill pack (local) a folder containing many skill subfolders (Anthropic-style ./skills/<name>/SKILL.md or flat ./<name>/SKILL.md)
Skill pack (URL) a github repo containing many skill folders
Marketplace (local) the absolute path of the marketplace root
Marketplace (URL) https://github.com/owner/marketplace-repo
List (CLI) multiple whitespace-separated entries
List (file) a path prefixed with @, e.g. an inputs list file
Comma-separated a single string of entries joined with commas

What ships with it

1 file 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.
