cpv-refresh-readme

cpv-refresh-readme is a skill for Claude Code from Emasoft/claude-plugins-validation. It costs 55 tokens per session (943 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A README updater that keeps a plugin's automatically generated component list matched with its files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to refresh the component section or check in continuous integration whether the README needs updating.
Why use it?
It removes the need to edit the component table manually whenever skills, agents, commands, hooks, or MCP servers change.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: user-invocable in frontmatter.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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-refresh-readme 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-refresh-readme

Overview

Auto-refreshes the <!-- BEGIN AUTO-COMPONENTS --> block in a plugin's README.md so it never drifts out of sync with what the plugin actually ships (agents, skills, commands, hooks, MCP servers). Detects components from the filesystem and renders a markdown table inside the <!-- BEGIN/END AUTO-COMPONENTS --> markers. Custom prose around the block stays user-owned. Loaded dynamically via cpv-the-skills-menu, reached via the Manage → Refresh README menu branch.

Prerequisites

  • uv on PATH
  • Target plugin path with README.md (or one will be created)
  • Optional: <!-- BEGIN AUTO-COMPONENTS --> and <!-- END AUTO-COMPONENTS --> markers somewhere in the README (added on first run if missing)

Instructions

  1. Run refresh_readme.py against the target plugin path.
  2. If markers exist, only the body between them is rewritten.
  3. If markers are missing, the block is appended at the end of the README on first run. You can move it wherever you want — subsequent runs preserve placement.
  4. For a CI gate, use --check to exit 1 if the README would change.
  5. Wire into your publish.py as a pre-push gate so README never drifts in CI.

Copy this checklist and track your progress:

  • refresh_readme.py invoked
  • README updated (or --check confirms no drift)
  • Optionally wired into publish.py Gate 8.5

Output

  • An updated README.md with the <!-- BEGIN AUTO-COMPONENTS --> block re-rendered.
  • Component table includes: agents, skills, commands, presence flags for hooks/MCP.
  • Custom prose before/after the block is untouched.

Error Handling

Error Resolution
README.md missing The script creates one on first run
--check exit 1 README is out of date — run without --check to update
Markers in wrong place Move them; subsequent runs preserve placement
Components missed Confirm they're in canonical locations (agents/*.md, skills/<name>/SKILL.md, etc.)

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.
