meta-validate-context

meta-validate-context is a skill for Claude Code from grimoire-rs/grimoire. It costs 38 tokens per session (523 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A checker for keeping subsystem rule files in `.claude/rules/` aligned with the code they describe.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to audit named types, modules, functions, errors, commands, storage details, and test fixtures against the current `src/` and test files.
Why use it?
It finds references to removed code and code additions missing from the documentation, reducing the risk of agents following outdated project guidance.

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

meta-validate-context 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 1mo 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

Validate Context Rules

Check .claude/rules/subsystem-*.md files match current codebase.

Workflow

For each subsystem-*.md rule file:

  1. Read the rule — Extract type names, module paths, function names, error variants
  2. Grep the codebase — Verify each reference exists
  3. Check for new additions — Find new public types/modules not in rule
  4. Report — List stale references + missing additions

Subsystem Rules to Check

Rule Key References to Verify
subsystem-cli.md CLI context struct, command enum variants, output trait
subsystem-cli-api.md Report data types, output trait conventions
subsystem-cli-commands.md Documented command surface vs implemented commands
subsystem-file-structure.md Storage layout, data-root constraints
subsystem-tests.md Fixture names in conftest.py, test file names, runner methods, helper params

Subsystem rules are provisional placeholders while the implementation is scaffolded — verify against current src/ as code lands.

Verification Commands

# Check if a type still exists
grep -r "pub struct TypeName" src/
grep -r "pub enum TypeName" src/

# Check if a module still exists
ls src/module_name/

# Check for new public types not in the rule
grep -rn "^pub struct\|^pub enum\|^pub trait" src/ | grep -v test

Output Format

## Context Validation Report

### subsystem-cli.md
- OK: [type] still present
- STALE: [type] — renamed to [new_name] or removed
- MISSING: [new_type] — not documented in rule

### subsystem-file-structure.md
...

When to Run

  • After big refactors
  • Before major feature branches
  • Part of /code-check audits
  • Monthly

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.
