Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00028 | $0.00404 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00014 | $0.00202 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00081 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00040 |
Grade A, and why
project-scaffold 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
project-scaffold
Scaffold new projects from templates: Node.js, Python, React, API server, CLI tool, monorepo.
Use When
- Starting a new project from scratch
- Creating boilerplate and project structure
- Setting up git, package.json, pyproject.toml
- Generating standard configs (.gitignore, eslint, prettier, etc.)
- Need a consistent project structure
Scripts
scaffold.sh
Generate a complete project structure from a template type.
bash scripts/scaffold.sh <type> <name> [--dir <output-dir>]
Types: node, python, react, api, cli, monorepo
Examples:
bash scripts/scaffold.sh node my-app
bash scripts/scaffold.sh python data-pipeline --dir /tmp/projects
bash scripts/scaffold.sh api user-service
bash scripts/scaffold.sh react dashboard
bash scripts/scaffold.sh cli mytool
bash scripts/scaffold.sh monorepo platform
config-gen.sh
Generate individual config files for an existing project.
bash scripts/config-gen.sh <config-type> [--dir <project-dir>]
Config types: gitignore-node, gitignore-python, eslint, prettier, tsconfig, dockerfile-node, dockerfile-python, github-ci

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.

project-scaffold is a skill published in the GitHub repository JansenAnalytics/claudex (5 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 28 tokens to every session and 404 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-09-03.
