ac-checkpoint-manager

ac-checkpoint-manager is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from majiayu000/claude-skill-registry. It costs 30 tokens per session (379 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A checkpoint manager for saving known-good project states so you can return to them later. A checkpoint records project files and related development state.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create automatic or manual save points before and after features, during sessions, or before risky operations, then roll back when needed.
Why use it?
It reduces the risk of losing working code during refactors, risky changes, or autonomous development. If something goes wrong, you have a saved state to restore.

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

ac-checkpoint-manager 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 13d 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.

What it actually says

AC Checkpoint Manager

Manage checkpoints for safe rollback during autonomous development.

Purpose

Creates and manages checkpoints that enable rollback to known-good states, providing safety during autonomous operation.

Quick Start

from scripts.checkpoint_manager import CheckpointManager

manager = CheckpointManager(project_dir)
checkpoint = await manager.create_checkpoint("before-refactor")
await manager.restore_checkpoint(checkpoint.id)

Checkpoint Types

  • Auto: Created automatically at key points
  • Manual: Created on explicit request
  • Feature: Created after each feature completion
  • Session: Created at session boundaries

Auto-Checkpoint Points

  • Before starting new feature
  • After completing feature
  • Before risky operations
  • At context compaction

Workflow

1. CREATE    → Snapshot current state
2. STORE     → Save files and git ref
3. VALIDATE  → Verify checkpoint integrity
4. (on rollback)
5. RESTORE   → Restore from checkpoint
6. VERIFY    → Confirm restoration

Integration

  • Used by: ac-state-tracker for state recovery
  • Used by: ac-task-executor before risky operations

API Reference

See scripts/checkpoint_manager.py for full implementation.

What ships with it

1 file 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.
