finish-line

finish-line is a skill for Claude Code from jschulte/claude-plugins. It costs 63 tokens per session (2,552 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A product and architecture planning guide that defines what finished should mean and maps a route from the current repository to that outcome. Architecture is the structure and responsibilities of a software system.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to assess an empty, partial, or established repository, agree on the target experience, and create a practical product and architecture roadmap.
Why use it?
It prevents teams from solidifying detailed specifications before agreeing on the intended user experience and destination. It also exposes gaps, duplicated implementations, and work needed to make the product reliable and easier to change.

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

finish-line 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 24d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 91 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Finish Line

Use the user's intended experience as the destination and the actual repository as the starting point. Assess or propose an architecture that makes the product correct, reliable, scalable and easier to understand and change. The intended benefits are lower maintenance burden, faster safe fixes/features, and fewer competing implementations. Reuse sound existing work; add capabilities in service of the agreed product outcome.

Default deliverable and depth

Default to a rigorous assessment and a proposed medium-level product and architecture roadmap for discussion. Begin with the whole system's structure after establishing its purpose. Explain the problems, affected users, practical corrections, shared responsibilities to reuse, and observable finished behavior. Investigate deeply enough to support those judgments; present them concisely.

Capture the user's narrative, signature interaction and constraints, not just a feature list. Translate them into the shortest meaningful successful journey and the outcomes the product must deliver. A requested immediate capture experience, for example, must survive architectural planning as an observable interaction requirement. Distinguish requested outcomes from inferred opportunities; do not turn an illustrative example into a universal requirement.

Keep two levels distinct:

  • Assessment and roadmap: explain the intended destination, cover the requested system, cross-area consolidations, existing work, priorities and acceptance outcomes. Present unsettled scope as a proposal. Future work may be well understood without exact interfaces, file reservations or test scripts.
  • Specs and implementation handoffs: after the direction is agreed and this detail is requested, specify the next selected chunks—ordinarily one to three unless the user chooses another scope. Expand later chunks when selected and recheck their then-current source and owners.

A request to review the whole platform, be thorough, or explain what needs fixing does not by itself request an exhaustive implementation specification. Do not generate a packet for every finding or section, fill a template's optional fields, or keep writing distant specs to make a roadmap look complete. Explicit requests for broader implementation planning override this default.

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.
