agenttrace-session-audit

agenttrace-session-audit is a skill for Claude Code from Ghosteken/agent-harness. It costs 34 tokens per session (1,280 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of agenttrace-session-audit, MIT.

Guidance for inspecting local records of AI coding-agent sessions with agenttrace. It examines costs, tool failures, delays, repeated attempts, unusual behavior, health, code changes, and CI checks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Reviewing session logs from coding agents, finding retries and failures, comparing runs, checking changes, and adding session-quality gates to continuous integration (CI).
Why use it?
It helps explain why an agent run was slow, expensive, incomplete, or unreliable instead of relying on guesswork. It can also compare separate attempts and support automated health checks.

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

agenttrace-session-audit 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.

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.

agenttrace Session Audit

Overview

Use this skill to inspect local AI coding-agent sessions with agenttrace. It focuses on the process behind a run: token and cost spikes, tool failures, retry loops, latency gaps, anomalies, health scores, and session-to-session diffs.

agenttrace is local-first and reads session logs from tools such as Claude Code, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Aider, Cursor exports, OpenCode, Qwen Code, Kimi, and generic JSON or JSONL traces.

When to Use This Skill

  • Use when a user asks why an AI coding run was slow, expensive, shallow, or unreliable.
  • Use when reviewing local agent logs before retrying a failed or suspicious task.
  • Use when building a lightweight CI health gate for AI-assisted coding sessions.
  • Use when comparing two attempts and looking for changed tool paths, retries, or cost patterns.

How It Works

Step 1: Discover Available Sessions

Prefer an installed agenttrace binary when it is available on PATH. If the current repository is luoyuctl/agenttrace, use go run ./cmd/agenttrace instead.

agenttrace --doctor
agenttrace --overview

If no sessions are detected, report the directories checked by --doctor and ask for the exported session file or log directory.

Step 2: Produce a Human-Readable Audit

Use Markdown when the user wants a concise report they can inspect or share.

agenttrace --overview -f markdown -o agenttrace-overview.md

In the report, lead with the highest-risk sessions and explain why they matter: critical anomalies, repeated tool failures, token or cost waste, long latency gaps, low health scores, and suspiciously shallow sessions.

Step 3: Inspect One Session or Directory

Use the latest session for a quick check, or pass an explicit export path when the user provides one.

agenttrace --latest
agenttrace --latest -f json
agenttrace path/to/session-or-export.json
agenttrace --overview -d path/to/session-dir

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.

agenttrace-session-audit is a skill published in the GitHub repository Ghosteken/agent-harness (2 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 34 tokens to every session and 1,280 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 100% identical to agenttrace-session-audit, differing in 0 lines, and is treated as a copy.
