config-manager

config-manager is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from kaivyy/kabot. It costs 41 tokens per session (819 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for inspecting and safely changing Kabot's configuration files and runtime settings. These settings control models, providers, memory, messaging channels, accounts, access lists, and related behavior.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to diagnose configuration problems, check channel accounts and access rules, find invalid or missing settings, and make the smallest safe approved change.
Why use it?
It helps distinguish a setting that is explicitly configured from a default supplied by the software. It also uses status information and logs to investigate why a change or connection is not working.

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

config-manager 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/manage_config.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Config Manager

Use this skill when the user asks whether a Kabot setting is enabled, why a config value is not taking effect, why a model/provider/channel setup is failing, or asks you to safely edit Kabot config after reviewing the current state.

Use this skill for

  • ~/.kabot/config.json, config.json.bak, or mode_config.json
  • model/provider/memory/backend settings
  • channel settings such as WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, accounts, allowlists, pairing, or login-related config
  • conflicting top-level vs per-account config
  • invalid JSON, missing keys, missing env-backed settings, or wrong defaults
  • runtime issues where the next grounded step is to inspect config, status output, or logs before changing anything

Grounding rules

  • Read the real config first. Do not guess from defaults.
  • When the issue is runtime behavior, inspect the relevant status output and logs before proposing a fix.
  • Separate explicit config from code fallback/default behavior. Say which is which.
  • Prefer the smallest safe config change that resolves the issue.
  • Ask for approval before any state-changing edit, restart, reload, relink, or destructive cleanup.

Files and evidence to inspect

  • ~/.kabot/config.json
  • ~/.kabot/config.json.bak
  • ~/.kabot/mode_config.json
  • ~/.kabot/logs/
  • relevant workspace docs/bootstrap files if the user references them
  • relevant runtime status output if available

Workflow

  1. Ground the request in real evidence
  • Identify the exact setting, subsystem, or symptom the user cares about.
  • Read only the relevant config sections first.
  • If the user asks "is X configured?", answer from the file, not from assumption.
  • If the issue is a runtime error, compare config with the latest relevant log/status evidence.
  1. Diagnose before editing
  • Quote the current relevant values briefly.
  • Call out missing keys, conflicting overrides, duplicated account blocks, malformed JSON, or env/config gaps.
  • If the value is not explicitly set, say whether Kabot is falling back to a code default and where that default comes from.

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
