refine-loop

refine-loop is a skill for Claude Code from GeiserX/claude-code-parallel-skills. It costs 70 tokens per session (3,978 once invoked), scanned A, original, GPL-3.0.

A repeatable process for finding and applying small improvements to a code repository while preserving its existing behavior. A repository is the project folder containing its code and history.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect a repository from several evidence-based angles, rank possible improvements, apply them one at a time, and verify each result independently.
Why use it?
It turns broad cleanup into small, checked changes that can be resumed safely. It stops when further changes offer little benefit or reach a safety limit.

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

refine-loop 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 2mo 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 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.
