moonbase

moonbase is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Generous-Corp/pulp. It costs 86 tokens per session (2,421 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Optional Moonbase license-activation integration for Pulp — load-bearing compile settings, OpenSSL-at-configure caveat, the moonbase-pulp User-Agent contract, audio-thread gating + click-free fade, async start/pump, the interactive native (no-WebView) activation editor (frame-tick polling + the don't-rebuild-mid-event…

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

moonbase 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 today.

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.

Moonbase Skill

Use this when adding, building, or testing license activation / copy protection in a Pulp plugin or app with Moonbase, or when working under examples/moonbase-activation/.

Moonbase is a hosted licensing service. moonbase-cpp is a header-only, MIT-licensed C++17 client. Pulp consumes it via FetchContent (target moonbase::licensing) — no fork, no vendoring. Pulp owns only a registry entry, docs, this skill, and the reference example; upstream owns the SDK.

Load-bearing build settings (lead with these)

pulp add moonbase resolves the dependency and the link target, but it does not carry the two cache settings below. Set them before the dependency is made available:

set(MOONBASE_BUILD_TESTS    OFF CACHE BOOL "" FORCE)
set(MOONBASE_BUILD_EXAMPLES OFF CACHE BOOL "" FORCE)
set(MOONBASE_USE_CURL       OFF CACHE BOOL "" FORCE)  # supply your own transport

target_link_libraries(MyPlugin PRIVATE moonbase::licensing)

MOONBASE_USE_CURL=OFF makes the upstream INTERFACE target define MOONBASE_DISABLE_CURL_TRANSPORT for you and drops libcurl. Inject a transport instead — the example supplies one over Pulp's cpp-httplib/mbedTLS stack.

OpenSSL bolt-on (known upstream caveat)

Moonbase documents OpenSSL as a system requirement (its README expects OpenSSL::SSL/OpenSSL::Crypto findable on the system), and v3.3.0's CMake runs find_package(OpenSSL REQUIRED) and links it unconditionally, with no MOONBASE_CRYPTO_NATIVE CMake wiring. So OpenSSL must be present at configure time, and v1 simply uses the OpenSSL crypto backend (required + linked anyway) — the simplest, no-extra-wiring path. This is upstream's intended design, not a blocker and not a reason to fork. The example's CMake auto-discovers OpenSSL; per platform:

  • macOS: brew install openssl@3 (/opt/homebrew/opt/openssl@3 on Apple silicon); pass -DOPENSSL_ROOT_DIR=$(brew --prefix openssl@3) if needed.
  • Linux: apt install libssl-dev (or distro equivalent).
  • Windows: vcpkg (vcpkg install openssl) or a system package, discoverable via the toolchain / OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR.

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.

moonbase is a skill published in the GitHub repository Generous-Corp/pulp (16 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 86 tokens to every session and 2,421 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 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 2026-09-04.
