batch-review-mcp: Skill for Claude Code

.cursor/skills/session-history-metadata/SKILL.md

session-history-metadata is a skill for Claude Code, Cursor from hevangel/batch-review-mcp. It costs 49 tokens per session (415 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A skill for recording the Cursor CLI coding agent's version and exact token usage in session-history files. It reads saved JSON logs or terminal captures and formats the metadata for Markdown.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when preparing session-history entries, filling in the agent harness, model, or token-usage sections, or checking those details from a saved Cursor CLI stream log.
Why use it?
It replaces estimates with metadata taken from the agent run, making session records more accurate and consistent.

Skill for Claude CodeCursor

Written for Claude Code and Cursor: shipped in a Claude Code plugin, but also installed under .cursor/.

This is hevangel/batch-review-mcp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Cursor how to work on batch-review-mcp itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything batch-review-mcp configures →

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is uv run python scripts/session_history_metadata.py --stream-json tmp-agent-stream.jsonl --format markdown --require-usage.

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

session-history-metadata 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 11d 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

Session History Metadata

Use This Skill

Use this skill when you need accurate session_history/ metadata for a Cursor CLI coding agent run.

Prefer exact token counts from a saved agent --print --output-format stream-json log or a terminal capture containing that JSON output. The repo utility script also calls agent about --format json to get the CLI version.

Exact Metadata Workflow

  1. Capture or locate a saved Cursor CLI stream log.

    Example capture:

    agent --print --output-format stream-json --trust "Your prompt here" > tmp-agent-stream.jsonl
    

    You can also point the utility at a terminal capture file that contains the same JSON lines.

  2. Run the repo utility:

    uv run python scripts/session_history_metadata.py --stream-json tmp-agent-stream.jsonl --format markdown --require-usage
    
  3. Paste the emitted markdown block into the ## Agent harness, ## Model, and ## Token usage sections of your session_history/ file.

Notes

  • Default harness label: Cursor CLI coding agent

  • Exact token usage requires a result.usage block from Cursor CLI stream-json output.

  • If you do not have a saved stream log, you can still get the harness version with:

    agent about --format json
    
  • Raw Cursor transcript exports under agent-transcripts/ do not currently provide exact token usage, so do not treat them as an exact source for those numbers.

  • Do not invent token numbers. If the current harness/workflow does not expose them yet, add or update a repo-local utility/skill rather than writing placeholders as if they were exact.

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.
