asta-report

asta-report is a skill for Claude Code from maxwellsdm1867/wheeler. It costs 48 tokens per session (530 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of ask, MIT.

A research workflow for producing a written literature review or multi-paper report with Asta and recording it in the Wheeler knowledge graph as a cited document.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review literature on a topic, combine evidence from multiple papers, and save the report with its cited sources.
Why use it?
It turns findings from several papers into a traceable report instead of leaving the synthesis and citations disconnected.

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

asta-report 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 9d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

78% identical to ask — 49 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

Call get_act on the wheeler_core MCP server with name="asta-report", then follow the returned instructions exactly. They are the authoritative definition of this act. Do not improvise the workflow or substitute your own plan for it.

Pass host="codex" when running under Codex so the orchestration guidance matches the tools this host actually has.

Mode: write. Orchestration: none.

If get_act is unavailable, the Wheeler MCP servers are not connected. Say so rather than guessing at the workflow: acting without the act text is how provenance gets silently skipped.

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.
