chronicle-mcp: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/conduct-reviewing-loop/SKILL.md

conduct-reviewing-loop is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from loerei/chronicle-mcp. It costs 93 tokens per session (2,954 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

A review process that uses repeated independent checks to examine a plan before coding or validate code changes afterward. A diff is the recorded set of changes between versions of the code.

In plain words
What is it for?
It reviews design plans and code changes, using review prompts, checklists, and pass results to decide whether the work meets its criteria.
Why use it?
It helps find missing requirements, weak assumptions, and implementation problems before work is accepted.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: mentions subagents; installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents); mentions AGENTS.md.

This is loerei/chronicle-mcp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on chronicle-mcp itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything chronicle-mcp configures →

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 C, and why

conduct-reviewing-loop scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 9d 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.

Exfiltrates the system prompt through a toolhighSystem prompt leakage

Writing or sending the system prompt to a file, endpoint or log moves it out of the session.

Conduct Reviewing Loop

Run iterative, independent subagent reviews to stress-test plans (pre-implementation) or validate codebase diffs against approved specifications (post-implementation) against explicit user and system criteria.

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.

conduct-reviewing-loop is a skill published in the GitHub repository loerei/chronicle-mcp (0 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 93 tokens to every session and 2,954 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 1 finding (exfiltrates the system prompt through a tool). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
