playbooks

playbooks is a skill for Claude Code from matebenyovszky/agentplaybooks. It costs 103 tokens per session (1,245 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A plugin for using AgentPlaybooks, portable assistant setups that combine a persona, instructions, skills, memory, documents, connected tools, and secrets. It lets a signed-in account's playbooks be listed, opened, and used across supported assistant clients.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to choose a playbook, adopt its persona and instructions, read or write its memory, work with its documents, and use its connected tools. It requires the AgentPlaybooks connector to be signed in.
Why use it?
It avoids rebuilding the same assistant setup in each client. It also makes the selected playbook's instructions and shared information available consistently, subject to the playbook's access.

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

playbooks 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 2d 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 — 97 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Playbooks

A playbook is a portable agent setup the user keeps on AgentPlaybooks: one persona (who the agent is), project instructions (the always-on rules), skills, memory, canvas documents, connected MCP/OpenAPI tools, and a secret vault. The same playbook follows the user into Claude, Cursor, Codex, Hermes, and other clients, so what you write into it is visible there too — and to anyone the playbook is shared with.

The plugin has two connections with the same tools:

  • agentplaybooks-account reaches agentplaybooks.ai and signs in with OAuth. It works in every Claude app.
  • agentplaybooks-servers runs on the user's machine, in Claude Code, and reaches every AgentPlaybooks server the user has logged in to with the CLI — the hosted one, their organisation's own, or several. With more than one, list_playbooks marks each playbook's server, a playbook tool goes to the server that has its playbook_id, and create_playbook needs server.

Through either, one connection reaches every playbook the account owns or has been given, and each playbook tool takes a playbook_id (its UUID or GUID). Use whichever has tools; when both reach a playbook, either works. If neither has tools, nothing is signed in yet. In a Claude app, ask the user to open the AgentPlaybooks connector and select Connect. In Claude Code, /mcp shows each connection's state; a server is added by running the CLI's login --url=<server> in the user's own terminal and reconnecting agentplaybooks-servers from /mcp (see the agentplaybooks-cli skill).

Start of a task

  1. list_playbooks to see what exists. Pick by name with the user if more than one fits; do not guess between similar names. A project the CLI has linked to a playbook names it in .agentplaybooks/remote.json; prefer that one.
  2. get_playbook for the chosen one. It returns the persona, instructions, skills, connected servers, and a memory summary.
  3. If the user wants Claude to be that playbook, follow its persona and instructions for the rest of the conversation. Say that you are doing so.
  4. get_memory_context packs the memory that matters into one read. Prefer it over reading keys one by one.

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.
