nightshift

An unattended development workflow that works through a backlog of specifications and bugs while running tests and review checks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when leaving development work running while away, including test-driven changes, integration and end-to-end checks, screenshots, and a morning summary.
Why use it?
It structures long coding sessions so tasks can be selected, tested, committed, and reported without someone guiding every step.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 D, and why

nightshift scanned grade D with 2 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 2d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/nightshift.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Sends data to an external URLmediumData exfiltration

A POST to an outside endpoint may be telemetry or may be exfiltration; either way the mod talks to somewhere, and you should know where.

const res = await SELF.fetch("https://api.test/api/v1/devices/register", { method: "POST",

Recursive force deletehighDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

"command": "echo \"$TOOL_INPUT\" | grep -qE '(rm -rf|git push --force|git reset --hard|DROP TABLE|kubectl delete)' && echo 'BLOCK: Destructive command blocked during nightshift. Use explicit confirmation.' || true"

Files

What ships with it

4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

nightshift is a skill published in the GitHub repository jonmumm/skills (2 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), with no licence file. It adds 95 tokens to every session and 6,764 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it D with 2 findings (sends data to an external url, recursive force delete). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
