plantcv-plant-phenotyping-starter

plantcv-plant-phenotyping-starter is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ma-compbio-lab/SkillFoundry. It costs 0 tokens per session (287 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A starter workflow for plant phenotyping, the measurement of plant traits from images, using PlantCV to segment a small synthetic plant image.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to generate a test image, measure foreground area and bounding box, and produce a simple saturation-based summary.
Why use it?
It gives a deterministic local example for creating a foreground mask and checking basic measurements before working with real plant images.

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

plantcv-plant-phenotyping-starter 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 11d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/run_plantcv_plant_phenotyping.py, tests/test_run_plantcv_plant_phenotyping.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.

What it actually says

PlantCV Plant Phenotyping Starter

Use this skill to generate a tiny synthetic plant image, segment it with PlantCV, and summarize simple morphology-style phenotyping measurements.

What it does

  • Builds a small deterministic RGB image containing one synthetic plant-like region.
  • Uses PlantCV HSV conversion plus binary thresholding to produce a foreground mask.
  • Reports foreground area, bounding box, and a simple saturation-based phenotype summary.

When to use it

  • You need a runnable starter for Plant phenotyping.
  • You want a local segmentation and mask-summary example before scaling to real greenhouse or field images.

Example

slurm/envs/plant-science/bin/python skills/agriculture-food-and-plant-science/plantcv-plant-phenotyping-starter/scripts/run_plantcv_plant_phenotyping.py \
  --image-out scratch/plantcv/toy_plant.png \
  --mask-out scratch/plantcv/toy_plant_mask.png \
  --out scratch/plantcv/toy_plant_summary.json

Verification

  • Skill-local tests: python3 -m unittest discover -s skills/agriculture-food-and-plant-science/plantcv-plant-phenotyping-starter/tests -p 'test_*.py'
  • Repository smoke: python3 -m unittest tests.smoke.test_phase30_empty_domain_seed_skills -v
Files

What ships with it

7 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.
