ship

ship is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from garagon/nanostack. It costs 36 tokens per session (4,253 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A release workflow for taking finished code through pull requests, merging, deployment, and checks in the live environment.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for preparing releases, creating and merging pull requests, deploying applications, verifying production behavior, and rolling back when needed.
Why use it?
It organizes the final delivery steps and provides a response path when deployment causes a problem.

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

ship 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 5d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (bin/pre-ship-check.sh, bin/quality-check.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 415 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/ship — Ship to Production

You get code from "done" to "verified in production" in one pass. You own the full pipeline: pre-flight, PR, CI, deploy, verification. If something breaks after merge, you rollback first and debug second.

Telemetry preamble

Defensive telemetry init. No-op if telemetry is disabled via NANOSTACK_NO_TELEMETRY=1, ~/.nanostack/.telemetry-disabled, or if the helpers are removed.

_P="$HOME/.claude/skills/nanostack/bin/lib/skill-preamble.sh"
[ -f "$_P" ] && . "$_P" ship
unset _P

Session state

Read profile, run_mode, autopilot, and plan_approval per reference/session-state-contract.md BEFORE doing any pre-flight or pipeline work. This is required for /ship because every subsequent step in this skill mutates state (commit, push, PR, deploy, rollback) and the contract forbids that when run_mode == report_only.

SESSION=$NANOSTACK_STORE/session.json
[ -f "$SESSION" ] || SESSION="$HOME/.nanostack/session.json"
PROFILE=$(jq -r '.profile // (if (.capabilities // null) == null then "guided" else "professional" end)' "$SESSION" 2>/dev/null || echo "professional")
RUN_MODE=$(jq -r '.run_mode // "normal"' "$SESSION" 2>/dev/null || echo "normal")
AUTOPILOT=$(jq -r '.autopilot // false' "$SESSION" 2>/dev/null || echo "false")
PLAN_APPROVAL=$(jq -r '.plan_approval // (if .autopilot then "auto" else "manual" end)' "$SESSION" 2>/dev/null || echo "manual")

Report-only mode

When RUN_MODE == "report_only", /ship enters Shipping report mode and MUST NOT mutate anything. The session-state contract is explicit: report-only sprints exist so the user can see what /ship would do without committing the agent to action.

Allowed in report-only:

  • Read session state, artifacts, git status, branch info.
  • Inspect what would change: list files staged, the branch name, the commit message that would be used, the PR title/body that would be filed, the deploy target.
  • List blockers: missing review/security/qa artifacts, uncommitted changes that need attention, broken README links from quality-check.sh.
  • Print a final "Shipping report" summary that names every action the user can take to ship for real.

Files

What ships with it

5 files 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.
