bootstrap-project is a skill for Claude Code from jkm-4314/claude-code-skills. It costs 54 tokens per session (3,912 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A project setup package for starting a software repository with a defined working process. It creates project notes, a roadmap, commit checks, copyright headers, and a CLAUDE.md instruction file.

In plain words
What is it for?
Preparing a new Git project with session memory, a project roadmap, commit-message hooks, copyright information, and coding-agent instructions.
Why use it?
It removes the need to create these project files and conventions manually. It also checks for existing files before asking whether they may be replaced.

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

bootstrap-project 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 7d 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.

Bootstrap Project

You are setting up a new project with an opinionated standard workflow. This creates the full project infrastructure: session memory files, commit hooks, copyright headers, ROADMAP, and CLAUDE.md.

Step 1: Pre-Flight Checks

  1. Verify this is a git repository (git rev-parse --git-dir). If not, ask the user if you should run git init.
  2. Check which of the expected files already exist:
    • .claude/SESSION_LOG.md
    • .claude/CONTEXT.md
    • CLAUDE.md
    • ROADMAP.md
    • .githooks/commit-msg
  3. If any exist, warn the user and ask before overwriting.

Step 2: Gather Project Info

Ask the user these questions. If they say "just use defaults" or similar, infer from the repo (package.json, pyproject.toml, docker-compose.yml, etc.) and confirm before writing.

  1. Project name — e.g., "Acme Widget Manager"

  2. Short identifier — e.g., widget-mgr

  3. One-line description — what the project is

  4. Tech stack — e.g., "FastAPI + React + PostgreSQL + Docker"

  5. Project ownership — ask the user to pick one of their configured ownership profiles, or to define a new one inline. An ownership profile is a (label, copyright-text | none) pair. Examples:

    • Personal → single-line copyright with the user's legal name
    • Company → multi-line copyright with the company name and a confidentiality notice
    • Client / Government / Open-source → no copyright header (use this for work-for-hire, public-domain, or permissively-licensed projects)

    If the user has not previously declared their profiles, ask now: "What ownership profiles should I support? For each, give me a label and the copyright text — or none for no header." Save the answers for future invocations (e.g., write them to ~/.claude/bootstrap-project.config.md or note them in the global CLAUDE.md).

  6. Dev environment startup (optional) — commands to start backend/frontend, ports used

Step 3: Create .claude/ Memory Files

Create the .claude/ directory if it doesn't exist. For each file below, skip if it already exists (unless the user approved overwriting in Step 1).

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.
