claim

claim is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from harshanandak/forge. It costs 51 tokens per session (336 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Forge workflow for claiming a ready issue and marking it as actively owned by the current agent. Forge is the project’s issue-tracking system.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it immediately before implementing a ready issue, after checking its status, and before recording progress or closing the issue.
Why use it?
It makes ownership visible before coding starts, reducing the chance that two agents work on the same issue at the same time.

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

claim 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 4d 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

forge claim

Purpose

Mark an issue as actively worked by you. Claiming transitions the issue to in-progress and records ownership, which keeps the ready list accurate for every other agent.

When to Use

  • Immediately before starting implementation on a ready issue.
  • After selecting an id from forge ready and reviewing it with forge show.

Command

forge claim <id>            # claim a single ready issue

Instructions

  1. Confirm the issue is ready (see the ready skill).
  2. Run forge claim <id> to take ownership.
  3. Begin the work; record progress with comment.
  4. When finished, transition the issue with close.

Example

$ forge claim forge-142
Claimed forge-142 — status: in_progress (owner: current agent)

Success Criteria

  • The issue is in-progress and owned before any edits are made.
  • No other agent is already working the same id.
  • ready: find a claimable id.
  • close: release the claim by completing the issue.

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.
