reload is a skill for Claude Code from jonny981/claude-tandem. It costs 27 tokens per session (305 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

A tool for syncing local Tandem plugin source files with the copy used by Claude Code. A plugin is an add-on that provides extra instructions, scripts, or rules to the coding agent.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when changing Tandem scripts, skills, or rules, or when those changes do not appear to take effect.
Why use it?
It makes local plugin changes available during the current work session instead of leaving the agent using an older cached copy.

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 C, and why

reload scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 9d 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.

Recursive force deletehighDestructive command

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

- Otherwise: run `rm -rf <cache_path> && ln -s <source_dir>/plugins/tandem <cache_path>` and report what changed. No confirmation needed, this is a safe, reversible operation.

What it actually says

Reload Tandem Plugin Cache

Sync the local Tandem source directory into Claude Code's plugin cache so that script, skill, and rule changes take effect immediately.

Steps

  1. Read ~/.claude/plugins/known_marketplaces.json to find the tandem-marketplace entry. The source directory is at source.path (or installLocation).
  2. Read ~/.claude/plugins/installed_plugins.json to find the tandem@tandem-marketplace entry and its installPath (the cache path).
  3. Run readlink <cache_path> to check if it's already a symlink.
    • If it resolves to <source_dir>/plugins/tandem: report "Already synced. Cache is a symlink to source."
    • Otherwise: run rm -rf <cache_path> && ln -s <source_dir>/plugins/tandem <cache_path> and report what changed. No confirmation needed, this is a safe, reversible operation.

Note: Script, skill, and rule changes are live immediately after sync. Changes to hooks/hooks.json require a session restart (hooks are snapshotted at startup).

If the marketplace or plugin entries aren't found, explain that this skill requires a local directory marketplace setup (see CONFIGURATION.md).

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.
