insightful

insightful is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from hamchowderr/braynee. It costs 104 tokens per session (9,709 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Claude Code skill that builds an interactive HTML report from every recorded Claude Code conversation across all projects. It includes usage trends, detected Git commits, time spent, overlapping sessions, and highlighted sessions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review long-term Claude Code usage, find your most intensive sessions, recover older activity, and study changes in how you work over time.
Why use it?
It gives you a complete history instead of limiting analysis to recent sessions or summary statistics.

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

insightful 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 3d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (backfill-facets.mjs, collect-insights.js), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Insightful — Complete Claude Code Usage Report

Generate a comprehensive HTML insights report covering every Claude Code conversation across all projects. This skill produces a report matching the depth and quality of the built-in /insights command — with the same structured analysis stages — but covering ALL sessions ever, not just recent ones.

How Insightful differs from /insights

Built-in /insights Insightful
Scope Recent sessions only Every session ever recorded
Data sources stats-cache + recent facets 5 sources: history.jsonl, stats-cache, facets, session indexes, .jsonl transcripts
Git commits Not tracked Detected from Bash tool calls in .jsonl files
Hours spent Not tracked Calculated from session timestamps
Multi-clauding Not analyzed Detects concurrent session overlaps
Notable sessions Not included Top 5 most intense sessions highlighted
Evolution Not tracked Month-over-month usage trends
Pre-tracking data Invisible Recovers sessions from before stats-cache existed
Output In-terminal summary Interactive HTML report with charts, copy buttons, collapsible sections

Step 0: Backfill Facets (first-time setup)

Facets are qualitative per-session analysis files (goal, outcome, satisfaction, friction, helpfulness). Claude Code generates them automatically going forward, but older sessions may not have them — which means gaps in satisfaction and friction analysis.

Run the collect script first to check coverage:

node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/insightful/collect-insights.js"

If it prints a ⚠️ FACET COVERAGE LOW warning, backfill your historical sessions before generating the report. Backfill uses claude -p (your Claude Code subscription) — no API billing.

# Dry run — shows what would be processed, no LLM calls
node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/insightful/backfill-facets.mjs" --dry-run

# Run first 50 sessions
node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/insightful/backfill-facets.mjs" --chunk=50

# Run all remaining
node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/insightful/backfill-facets.mjs" --chunk=500

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
