close-my-loops

close-my-loops is a skill for Claude Code from insideout-ai/make-it-work. It costs 223 tokens per session (4,506 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A work-profile and open-task tracker built from your own email and Slack. It stores your organisation, contacts, communication style, active work and unfinished tasks in a Markdown file, with options to reload and refresh it automatically.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find important messages, draft replies in your style, identify who owns work and review tasks needing attention.
Why use it?
It reduces the need to repeat your work context or remember every unfinished conversation. Regular refreshes help keep that context current.

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

close-my-loops 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 today.

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 — 168 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Close My Loops

This skill has four parts. They build on each other but are each independently useful — jump to whichever one matches what the user asked for.

  1. Build/refresh brain.md — a profile of the user's working life, from their own email/Slack.
  2. Set up a Cowork Project so that file gets read automatically every session, instead of only when someone remembers to mention it.
  3. Set up a scheduled task that refreshes the file daily and sends a summary of what needs attention.
  4. On-demand 1:1 prep checklists — when the user asks to be prepared for a weekly/1:1 with a specific person, research that person's open threads and write the result into a persistent Slack canvas section for them, not just into the chat reply.

The four connect: Part 2 is what makes Part 1's file actually useful without the user re-uploading it every time, Part 3 is what keeps it current without the user having to ask again, and Part 4 is what turns "prepare me for X" from a one-off chat answer into something that persists in the same place the user already keeps notes for that person. A brain.md nobody re-reads, or one that goes stale, is much less valuable than the sum of its parts — so if the user only asks for Part 1, it's worth mentioning the other parts exist once the file is built.


Part 1: Build or refresh brain.md

What this produces

A single markdown file (default name brain.md) that a future Claude session can read to answer things like "find my important emails," "draft a reply to X in my style," or "who owns this initiative." It's not a knowledge base of facts about the world — it's a profile of the user's working life: who they talk to, how, and what's currently in flight.

The file has different kinds of content, and it matters that you keep them distinct:

  • Stable content — role, reporting line, key people, communication style. Changes slowly; the most reusable part.
  • Time-sensitive content — active initiatives, open loops awaiting a response. Goes stale within days. Always label it as a dated snapshot, not settled fact.
  • A changelog — see below. This is what makes Parts 2 and 3 work over time.

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.
