ciel-meta-operations

ciel-meta-operations is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from jxoesneon/Ciel. It costs 22 tokens per session (507 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A set of rules for managing coding-agent settings, application programming interface (API) use, and user-interface state changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is used to choose models for different tasks, manage context and API costs, audit UI state transitions, and install tools at user or project level.
Why use it?
It helps find configuration mistakes and event handlers that change state and then accidentally undo that 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

ciel-meta-operations 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 7d 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.

What it actually says

CIEL ADAPTATION: Meta Operations (The Orchestrator)

This skill manages the internal logic of CIEL and its interaction with the Claude API and UI state.

Claude API Standards

  1. Model Selection: Opus (Architecture/Research), Sonnet (Coding/Logic), Haiku (Classification/High-volume).
  2. Thinking Layer: Enable thinking for complex math or multi-step logic tasks.
  3. Efficiency: Use Prompt Caching for large system prompts. Use Batches API for non-time-sensitive bulk work (50% cost reduction).

Click-Path Audit (State Integrity)

  • Problem: Traditional debugging misses handlers that silently undo each other.
  • Protocol:
    1. Map State Store actions (sets vs resets).
    2. Trace EVERY function call in a handler in order.
    3. CHECK: Does a later call undo an earlier state change? (Sequential Undo).
    4. CHECK: Is the final state what the label promises?

System Configuration (ECC)

  • Installation: Use the interactive installer to select skill categories (Framework, Database, Workflow).
  • Level: Choose User-level (~/.claude/) for global tools; Project-level (.claude/) for repo-specific rules.

Anti-Patterns

  • Sequential Undo: setLoading(true); resetForm(); where reset sets loading to false.
  • Hardcoded API Keys: Passing sk- tokens directly in code instead of env vars.
  • Amnesiac Description: Writing a skill description that describes "How" instead of "When."
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.
