update

update is a skill for Claude Code from geniro-io/geniro-claude-harness. It costs 59 tokens per session (3,297 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of geniro-update, Apache-2.0.

A plugin-update procedure for Geniro that checks the installation, applies a newer version, verifies user-authored files, and handles documented migration steps. It runs through Claude Code's plugin system rather than other coding-agent runtimes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to update the Geniro plugin, check its integrity, preserve custom files, and review migration changes.
Why use it?
It reduces the risk of losing local instructions or actions during an update and makes breaking changes explicit. It also avoids making changes when the command is run in an unsupported runtime.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter. Also seen: model in frontmatter; reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md.

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

update 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 7d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 145 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/geniro:update — update plugin

Contents

  • Path constraints
  • Loop invariants
  • Anti-rationalization
  • Definition of done
  • Budgets — quality-first
  • ACI per-phase tool surface
  • Termination case → message
  • Memory I/O
  • User-content snapshot
  • Phase 1 — pre-check · Phase 2 — update · Phase 3 — post-check · Phase 4 — migration
  • Done — final report
  • REFERENCE

4-phase loop: Pre-check → Update → Post-check → Migration. Stateless.

Runtime requirement. This skill drives the claude plugin CLI and the Claude Code install registry, and functions only under Claude Code. When invoked from another runtime (e.g. Cursor), state that updates are managed by that runtime's own plugin mechanism and exit without side effects.

Read the phase's Steps on entry to that phase, from ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/update/: phase-1-precheck.md · phase-2-update.md · phase-3-postcheck.md · phase-4-migration.md · done-final-report.md. That Read is the phase's physically-first action and carries a one-line echo, per ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/_shared/phase-entry-read.md — the phase files hold this skill's gates (the update-confirmation AUQ, the hash-check and tamper-diff AUQs, the per-entry migration AUQ) and their helper call sites, so work started before the Read runs outside them. /geniro:update keeps no state file, so a compaction mid-run is recovered by re-Reading the phase you were in, named from this spine's phase headings, rather than by re-invoking the whole skill.

Path constraints

Pass ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} (for plugin files) or a fully resolved absolute path (for project files) to Read, Write, Edit, Glob, and Grep — these tools do not expand ~, so a literal ~ directory gets created. Honor CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR and fall back to $HOME/.claude only inside Bash blocks where $HOME expands correctly.

Loop invariants

The canonical loop invariants (${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/_shared/loop-invariants.md) apply, with five update-specific bindings:

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.
