Iconsult_mcp: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/ask-corpus/SKILL.md

ask-corpus is a skill for Claude Code from marcus-waldman/Iconsult_mcp. It costs 181 tokens per session (5,189 once invoked), scanned A, original, AGPL-3.0.

A question-answering workflow over a curated knowledge graph and three named books or corpora. It breaks a question into parts, searches concepts, follows related entries, retrieves passages, and checks the results against other evidence.

In plain words
What is it for?
Researching questions across the Iconsult corpus using concept searches, graph navigation, and passage retrieval. It is also intended to cross-check answers before presenting them.
Why use it?
It helps answer broad questions when the relevant information may be spread across several sources or connected concepts. The description does not identify the subjects of the three corpora beyond their names.

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

ask-corpus scanned grade A 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 10d 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.

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.
