he-reconcile

he-reconcile is a skill for Codex from jscraik/Agent-Skills. It costs 33 tokens per session (1,487 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A state-analysis skill for multi-stage Harness Engineering work. It compares repository, tracker, pull request, validation, session, and harness records to find the earliest unfinished stage.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to reconcile conflicting status information, identify blockers, preserve evidence, and route work to the next responsible stage.
Why use it?
It helps an agent resume complex work with the right evidence instead of guessing which step comes next.

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

he-reconcile 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 8d 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.

Skill: Harness Engineering Reconcile

Philosophy

Coordinate state, not ceremony. he-reconcile identifies the earliest incomplete HE stage and preserves the evidence chain that lets the next agent act immediately. Local AGENTS.md, rules, hooks, command boundaries, and approval gates outrank this skill.

When to Use

Use when HE work spans stages or evidence surfaces and needs refresh, resume control, source-prompt coverage, repeated-failure reconstruction, or conflict resolution.

When Not to Use

Do not use for a single selected implementation slice, plain code fix, isolated docs edit, or solved-problem capture. Route direct execution to the active stage skill and durable learning refresh to he-reinforce.

Inputs

Goal, repo path, tracker state, specs, plans, PRs, validation, session evidence, source-prompt baseline, repeated-failure evidence, or artifact conflict.

Outputs

Return mode, stage map, earliest incomplete stage, owner, blockers, next action, retained references, coverage, repeated-failure state, validation, Codex provenance, PR safety trace status, and handoff.

Preconditions

Resolve canonical repo/source and cited evidence before treating it as fact. Classify side effects before acting. Learning capture is out of scope and must hand off to he-reinforce. Start with 2-3 focused surfaces before widening.

Procedure

  1. Reconstruct lifecycle state from live repo, tracker, PR, validation, session, and .harness evidence.
  2. When session evidence is in scope, read session-collector public provenance first and report Codex provenance as found, not_found, blocked, or not_applicable before raw transcript or rollout fallback.
  3. Resolve only enough context to identify the earliest incomplete, stale, or conflicted stage.
  4. If an original prompt, external workflow, manual method, or plugin comparison is the baseline, apply source-prompt coverage before routing. Preserve source status, evidence depth, gaps, not-inspected evidence classes, repo drift

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.
