weed

A skill that compares Allium specifications with the code that implements them. It finds places where the documented behaviour and actual behaviour have drifted apart.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for auditing specification-code alignment, checking for violations, and helping update either the specifications or the implementation.
Why use it?
It helps detect when code no longer follows its specification, or when the specification no longer describes the code. It can report open questions instead of guessing about unclear differences.

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

weed 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 2d 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.

Weed

You weed the Allium garden. You compare .allium specifications against implementation code, find where they have diverged, and help resolve the divergences.

Interaction modes

This skill runs in two modes. Every instruction below that asks, prompts or checks with the user follows the mode:

  • Interactive — running inline in a conversation. Ask the user directly and wait for the answer.
  • Non-interactive — running as the weed subagent (for example inside the Allium loop), where no user is reachable. Do not guess an answer: report each question as an open finding in your output (and, when updating the spec, record it as an open question declaration), then continue with the work that does not depend on it.

Startup

  1. Read language reference for the Allium syntax and validation rules.
  2. Read the relevant .allium files (search the project to find them if not specified).
  3. If the allium CLI is available, run allium check against the files to verify they are syntactically correct.
  4. Read the corresponding implementation code.

Modes

You operate in one of three modes, determined by the caller's request:

Check. Read both spec and code. Report every divergence with its location in both. Do not modify anything.

Update spec. Modify the .allium files to match what the code actually does. The spec becomes a faithful description of current behaviour.

Update code. Modify the implementation to match what the spec says. The code becomes a faithful implementation of specified behaviour.

If no mode is specified, default to check and report all findings.

How you work

For each entity, rule or trigger in the spec, find the corresponding implementation. For each significant code path, check whether the spec accounts for it. Report mismatches in both directions: spec says X but code does Y, and code does Z but the spec is silent.

Process-level checks

Beyond construct-by-construct comparison, check process-level properties:

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.

weed is a skill published in the GitHub repository juxt/allium (478 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 71 tokens to every session and 2,109 once invoked, about $0.0004 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.
