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

claude-automation-recommender 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 12d 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.

Claude Automation Recommender

Analyze codebase patterns to recommend tailored Claude Code automations across all extensibility options.

This skill is read-only. It analyzes the codebase and outputs recommendations. It does NOT create or modify any files. Users implement the recommendations themselves or ask Claude separately to help build them.

Output Guidelines

  • Recommend 1-2 of each type: Don't overwhelm - surface the top 1-2 most valuable automations per category
  • If user asks for a specific type: Focus only on that type and provide more options (3-5 recommendations)
  • Go beyond the reference lists: The reference files contain common patterns, but use web search to find recommendations specific to the codebase's tools, frameworks, and libraries
  • Tell users they can ask for more: End by noting they can request more recommendations for any specific category

Automation Types Overview

Type Best For
Hooks Automatic actions on tool events (format on save, lint, block edits)
Subagents Specialized reviewers/analyzers that run in parallel
Skills Packaged expertise, workflows, and repeatable tasks (invoked by Claude or user via /skill-name)
Plugins Collections of skills that can be installed
MCP Servers External tool integrations (databases, APIs, browsers, docs)

Workflow

Phase 1: Codebase Analysis

Gather project context:

# Detect project type and tools
ls -la package.json pyproject.toml Cargo.toml go.mod pom.xml 2>/dev/null
cat package.json 2>/dev/null | head -50

# Check dependencies for MCP server recommendations
cat package.json 2>/dev/null | grep -E '"(react|vue|angular|next|express|fastapi|django|prisma|supabase|stripe)"'

# Check for existing Claude Code config
ls -la .claude/ CLAUDE.md 2>/dev/null

# Analyze project structure
ls -la src/ app/ lib/ tests/ components/ pages/ api/ 2>/dev/null

Key Indicators to Capture:

Category What to Look For Informs Recommendations For
Language/Framework package.json, pyproject.toml, import patterns Hooks, MCP servers
Frontend stack React, Vue, Angular, Next.js Playwright MCP, frontend skills
Backend stack Express, FastAPI, Django API documentation tools
Database Prisma, Supabase, raw SQL Database MCP servers
External APIs Stripe, OpenAI, AWS SDKs context7 MCP for docs
Testing Jest, pytest, Playwright configs Testing hooks, subagents
CI/CD GitHub Actions, CircleCI GitHub MCP server
Issue tracking Linear, Jira references Issue tracker MCP
Docs patterns OpenAPI, JSDoc, docstrings Documentation skills

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.
