audit-encapsulation

audit-encapsulation is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from melodic-software/claude-code-plugins. It costs 92 tokens per session (4,276 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An audit tool for checking whether agent skills expose or depend on private files outside their public interface.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find and fix boundary violations across skills, plugins, rules, agents, and documentation.
Why use it?
It catches hidden dependencies that can break when a skill's internal files are reorganized.

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

audit-encapsulation 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 yesterday.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/detect.sh, scripts/detect.test.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 224 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Why this skill exists

Skills have a public API and a private body, the contract is context/public-surface-contract.md (bundled with this skill). External consumers, rules, agents, other skills, prose docs, must cite the public surface only. Editing the private body must not break external consumers because no external consumer is allowed to depend on it.

Without enforcement, private bodies leak. A rule file cites a path inside <skill>/<some-subdir>/ because the content is convenient. The skill author refactors that subdir and the citation breaks silently. Nothing fails the build, nothing greps red. The skill cannot evolve without coordinating with every leaker.

This skill provides the detection + classification + remediation discipline that closes that gap. Distinct concern from /docs-hygiene:extract-ssot (which detects content duplication via Rule of Three). Encapsulation violations are single-violation matters. Rule of Three does not gate them.

Public surface matrix

The Skill surface, Public = frontmatter + documented actions + args/flags + /skill-name slash invocation + the scripts/ entry surface; private = everything else inside .claude/skills/<X>/ or plugins/<plugin>/skills/<X>/ (any OTHER subdirectory, all *.schema.json at any depth, all heading anchors), is defined by context/public-surface-contract.md, including the data-file and scripts/ entry-surface carve-outs and the rip-and-paste-portability rationale. This skill audits cites against two more authoring surfaces the contract file does not enumerate:

Surface Public (cite externally) Private
Rule file (.claude/rules/*.md) All H2/H3 headings (entire file is shared vocabulary) n/a
Scheduled-automation prompt (e.g. .claude/routines/*.md, if the consumer repo keeps them) Top-of-file orchestration prompt Internal exclusion lists, escape conditions

CI / git-hook sharing. Pick a technique, not an exception

What ships with it

4 files 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.

audit-encapsulation is a skill published in the GitHub repository melodic-software/claude-code-plugins (15 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 92 tokens to every session and 4,276 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
