context-item-creation

context-item-creation is a skill for Claude Code from honeydew-ai/honeydew-ai-coding-agents-plugins. It costs 68 tokens per session (5,034 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide for creating context items that give an AI analyst lasting knowledge about an organization. Context items can be standing instructions, on-demand procedures, external references, or records of important events.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to choose the right context-item type, name and organize items, and create instructions, skills, knowledge pointers, or memory events.
Why use it?
It helps keep organizational rules and procedures separate from the business data model, so the analyst receives the right information at the right 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

context-item-creation 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 354 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Prerequisites

Before creating context items, ensure you are on the correct workspace and branch. Use get_session_workspace_and_branch to check the current session context. For development work, create a branch with create_workspace_branch (the session switches automatically). See the workspace-branch skill for the full workspace/branch tool reference.


Overview

Context items are the mechanism for giving the AI analyst persistent, organizational knowledge: standing rules it must always follow, on-demand procedures it can retrieve, external references it can look up, and a historical record of notable events.

Context items belong to the context layer — they are consumed by the Honeydew AI analyst at query time to shape its behavior. They are separate from the semantic layer (entities, metrics, attributes, relations, domains), which defines your data model and business logic such as metric calculations.

There are four types:

Type Subtype When retrieved Use for
Instruction instruction Every prompt, automatically Short standing rules or constraints the model must always respect
Skill skill On demand, when relevant Long-form analysis playbooks and procedural guides
Knowledge knowledge On demand, when relevant Pointers to external content (Confluence, Notion, etc.)
Memory event On demand, when relevant Historical events and decisions that affect data interpretation

Before creating anything, read the critical boundary section below. Most requests for context items are actually requests to define or document logic — which belongs in the semantic layer, not in context.


THE HARD BOUNDARY: Context vs. Semantic Layer

This is the most important rule in this skill. Re-read it every time you are asked to create a context item.

Context items are for rules, procedures, and history. They are NOT for logic, calculations, or data definitions.

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.
