multi-repo

multi-repo is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from JakubMikolajek/codex-skills-collection. It costs 36 tokens per session (956 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A coordination process for changes that affect multiple code repositories. A repository is a separate codebase; these changes can involve shared APIs, types, configuration, or releases.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when changing API contracts, shared type definitions, configuration schemas, database structures, or coordinated frontend, backend, and mobile releases.
Why use it?
It reduces the risk of updating one codebase while leaving dependent codebases incompatible or undocumented.

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

multi-repo 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 12d 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.

Multi-Repo Coordination

This skill provides a structured process for coordinating changes that span multiple repositories. It enforces contract-owner-first ordering, cross-repo impact detection, and mandatory handoff documentation.

When to Use

  • Changing an API endpoint, request/response shape, or auth contract
  • Modifying shared types, interfaces, or proto definitions
  • Updating environment variables or config schema used across repos
  • Coordinating a release across frontend, backend, and/or mobile
  • Database schema changes with consumers in multiple services

When NOT to Use

  • Changes affect only one repository — use the appropriate domain skill directly
  • Task is about reading or analyzing multiple repos without modifying them
  • Cross-repo dependency is only a version bump with no contract change

Core Principles

Map Before Touching Anything

  1. Identify the contract owner (the repo that defines the shared interface)
  2. List all consumer repos and their dependency on the contract
  3. Determine change propagation order: owner first, consumers after
  4. Confirm which repos are accessible in the current session

Change Propagation Order

  • Never modify a consumer repo before the contract owner is updated
  • If consumer repos are not accessible, produce a per-repo checklist for manual follow-up
  • Each affected repo gets a scoped task description: what changes, why, what to verify

Multi-Repo Process

Use the checklist below and track your progress:

Multi-repo progress:
- [ ] Step 1: Map contract owner and consumers
- [ ] Step 2: Detect cross-repo impact
- [ ] Step 3: Update contract owner first
- [ ] Step 4: Propagate changes to consumers
- [ ] Step 5: Coordinate versioning
- [ ] Step 6: Produce session handoff with per-repo status

Step 1: Map contract owner and consumers

Identify which repo owns the shared interface. List every consumer repo and how it depends on the contract (import, API call, env var, shared type).

Step 2: Detect cross-repo impact

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.

multi-repo is a skill published in the GitHub repository JakubMikolajek/codex-skills-collection (5 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 36 tokens to every session and 956 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
