guild-context-assemble

guild-context-assemble is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from lookatitude/guild. It costs 0 tokens per session (6,086 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A skill that builds a specialist’s task brief from three layers: shared project information, role-specific guidance, and the assigned task with relevant references and dependencies.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after an approved plan and before dispatching a specialist to create a focused context bundle for that assignment.
Why use it?
It gives each specialist the information needed for its lane without sending large, unrelated project dumps or sibling work.

Installs and runs on its own, but its text points at files inside its plugin — anything it tells you to read at a ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} path is only there once the plugin is installed. Installing the plugin gets both.

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

guild-context-assemble 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 4d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 293 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

guild:context-assemble

Implements the context-assembly contract (minimum viable context per specialist). Runs after guild:plan has produced an approved .guild/plan/<slug>.md, invoked per-lane by guild:execute-plan immediately before each specialist dispatch. One bundle per specialist per run.

The rule

A specialist's authoritative task brief is the union of three layers — nothing more. No project-wide dumps. No sibling-specialist lanes unless the plan declares an upstream contract via depends-on:.

Layer Content Size target
Universal guild:principles + wiki/context/project-overview.md + wiki/context/goals.md ~400 tokens
Role-dependent wiki/standards/*.md matching the role (per §9.2 mapping) + 2–4 most-relevant entity pages from wiki/entities/ matching the task domain ~800–1500 tokens
Task-dependent The specialist's lane block from .guild/plan/<slug>.md + named refs (concepts, decisions, products the spec/plan names) + upstream contracts pulled from each depends-on: task's completed output + active decisions from wiki/decisions/ touching the task domain + (when a brownfield graph exists) a bounded KnowledgeGraph retrieval sub-source — see ## Graph retrieval + (when the run is attached to an initiative) the initiative-summary slot — see ## Initiative-summary slot ~800–1500 tokens

Total target: ~3k tokens. Hard cap: 6k (enforced in ## Size budget).

Role mapping

Select standards and typical products by the specialist's role group:

Role group Standards loaded Typical products loaded
Engineering (architect, backend, frontend, qa, devops, data) wiki/standards/coding-standards.md wiki/entities/products/<component>.md for each component the lane explicitly names
Writing (copywriter, tech-writer) wiki/standards/writing-voice.md + wiki/standards/branding.md wiki/entities/products/<feature>.md if the deliverable is user-facing
Social / SEO (seo, social) wiki/standards/writing-voice.md + wiki/standards/branding.md + wiki/standards/seo-rules.md wiki/entities/products/<feature>.md if the deliverable is user-facing
Commercial (marketing, sales) wiki/standards/branding.md + wiki/standards/pricing-policy.md wiki/entities/products/*.md for any product the lane references

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.
