lanes-link

lanes-link is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from lanes-sh/link. It costs 134 tokens per session (7,360 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A self-hosted gateway that lets an agent access one person’s connected accounts, saved knowledge, written procedures, and secrets. Separate profiles keep contexts such as work and personal data apart.

In plain words
What is it for?
Checking connected accounts, retrieving stored knowledge, following saved procedures, using secrets, and managing multiple personal or work profiles.
Why use it?
It gives the agent one controlled way to work with a person’s own information without mixing separate profiles or credentials. Each request must identify the profile it should use.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: mentions Codex.

Not installable: its command points at a path on the author’s own machine, so it runs nowhere else. The line is /Users/them/Downloads/invoice.pdf.

Good fit Checking connected accounts, retrieving stored knowledge, following saved procedures, using secrets, and managing multiple personal or work profiles.

Getting it into your agent

There is no command for this one: it runs only inside a plugin, and the catalogue could not identify which plugin ships it. The source is linked below.

Made for: Claude Code, Codex.

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

lanes-link 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 yesterday.

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 — 579 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

A self-hostable gateway to one person's own context: the accounts they have connected, the knowledge they have accumulated, the procedures they have written down, and their secrets. One endpoint serves every profile in a workspace, and each call names which profile it means.

The endpoint describes its own live state when you connect — which profiles exist, what is reachable in each — and serves the long form of this at lanes://instructions. This file is the part that does not change: how to behave with it.

Three words, and they changed in 0.8.0

A connection is one authorised account, and it belongs to the workspace. A profile is a selection: which connections it includes, what it allows on each, and who may consume it.

That ordering is the change. A connection used to live inside one profile, so reaching the same mailbox from two of them meant authorising it twice, and every account of a provider within a profile was governed identically. Now the account is authorised once and each profile decides what it may do with it, which is what makes "read this mailbox, write that calendar" something a person can write down.

"Target" is gone. It named the thing a workspace already was. --workspace is the flag; --target still works for one minor and warns.

Profiles are a boundary, not a setting

Every tool takes profile and connection. Profiles are how someone keeps work and personal apart; a connection they do not grant is not visible in one at all.

Ask which profile is meant when it is ambiguous. Do not default to whichever is listed first. Quietly picking one crosses the line the profile exists to draw. There is no "current profile" to switch — the choice is made per call, and lanes link profile list --workspace <name> shows what exists in that workspace. A profile lives in exactly one, so personal on local and personal on cloud are two profiles that share a name rather than one profile in two places.

A profile owns its data. Two profiles granting the same connection — every profile grants lanes_memory.lan1 — still read and write different notes, tasks, files and entities, because the profile is part of where they are kept. So there is nothing to be found in one by asking another, and a note taken under work is not available under personal.

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.
