managing-gdlignore

managing-gdlignore is a skill for Claude Code from greppable/greppable-cc-plugin. It costs 74 tokens per session (174 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A skill for maintaining a .gdlignore file, which lists files and directories that GDLC code-map scanning should skip. GDLC scanning creates file-level indexes of a codebase.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to exclude selected paths from GDLC scanning, review the existing exclusions, update the ignore file, and validate its format.
Why use it?
It keeps generated code, dependencies, component libraries, and test fixtures from adding noise to those code maps.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} variable.

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

managing-gdlignore 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.

What it actually says

When the user asks to exclude files/directories from GDL scanning, or mentions .gdlignore:

  1. Read the current .gdlignore if it exists
  2. Determine what they want to exclude
  3. Use the Edit or Write tool to update .gdlignore
  4. Run bash "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/gdl-lint.sh" .gdlignore to validate
  5. Confirm the change to the user

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.
