check

check is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from joestump/claude-plugin-sdd. It costs 43 tokens per session (5,287 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A focused check that compares code with its related Architecture Decision Records and specifications to find design drift.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check a targeted part of a codebase against its governing ADRs and specifications.
Why use it?
It quickly shows whether a particular file or directory has stopped following the project’s documented decisions and requirements.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Installs and runs on its own, but its text points at files inside its plugin — anything it tells you to read at a ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} path is only there once the plugin is installed. Installing the plugin gets both.

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

check 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 yesterday.

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

Quick Drift Check

Harness portability. This skill runs on any agent harness that loads Agent Skills — Claude Code, Codex CLI, OpenCode, Crush. Tool names used below (AskUserQuestion, Task, TeamCreate, SendMessage, TaskCreate, ToolSearch, mcp__*, ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}) denote capabilities, not hard requirements: map each to your harness's equivalent or use the documented fallback per ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/harness-compat.md. References to CLAUDE.md mean the project memory file (CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, or CRUSH.md) per harness-compat § "Project Memory File". A citation of the form shared-patterns.md § "Section" names one ## heading in that file — load only that section (see its "How to Read This File" note), never the whole file.

You are performing a fast, focused drift check on a specific target. This skill detects whether code aligns with its governing ADRs and specs.

Process

  1. Resolve artifact paths: Follow the Artifact Path Resolution pattern from ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/shared-patterns.md § "Artifact Path Resolution" to determine the ADR and spec directories. If $ARGUMENTS contains --module <name>, resolve paths relative to that module; otherwise, in a workspace, aggregate across all modules. The resolved ADR directory is {adr-dir} and spec directory is {spec-dir}.

    Cross-module aggregation: When in aggregate mode (no --module, workspace detected), check all modules and group findings by module in the output. Add a Module column to the findings table and organize findings under per-module subheadings. When --module is provided, check only that module — no module labels needed. When in single-module mode (no workspace), operate normally.

  2. Parse the target: Extract the target from $ARGUMENTS.

    • A file path: src/auth/login.ts
    • A directory path: src/auth/
    • An ADR reference: ADR-0001
    • A SPEC reference: SPEC-0001
    • If $ARGUMENTS is empty, check all artifacts against the entire codebase.

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.

check is a skill published in the GitHub repository joestump/claude-plugin-sdd (32 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 43 tokens to every session and 5,287 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 2026-08-30.
