audit-size

audit-size is a skill for Claude Code from melodic-software/claude-code-plugins. It costs 109 tokens per session (1,575 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A code-size reporting tool that counts lines in selected files, changed files, or the whole project. Where available, it separates total, blank, comment, and actual code lines, and otherwise reports total and non-blank lines.

In plain words
What is it for?
Measure lines in TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Bash, Go, and C# files, including changed files or explicitly selected paths.
Why use it?
It provides objective file-size information without declaring a file good or bad. This helps people review the scope and size of changes without confusing line count with code complexity.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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-size 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 4d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/audit-size.sh, scripts/audit-size.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 — 107 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Pre-computed context

Current branch: !git branch --show-current 2>/dev/null || echo "unknown"

Purpose

Lines per file is the one measure on the operator's list with a crisp definition and no standard-backed file-level threshold. This skill reports the number, per file in the scope, beside a reference whose provenance is printed with it, and stops there: no pass or fail, no severity, no finding. Deciding what to do with a long file is the reader's call; the report gives them the number and the citation.

Two collectors, tried in order:

Collector Values per file When
scc lines_total, lines_blank, lines_comment, lines_code, lines_non_blank scc resolves on PATH
bundled counter lines_total, lines_blank, lines_non_blank, labeled comment-agnostic always

scc is used for line counting only; its complexity figure is never read, because it is a substring count rather than cyclomatic complexity.

Every text file in scope is measured. The language lanes (TypeScript/JavaScript, Python, Bash, Go, C#) are detected by extension, and everything else that is not binary (markdown, JSON, YAML, PowerShell, a Makefile) lands in the catch-all other lane, which this measure serves and no other does; lanes.other.enabled: false opts it out.

Run it

"${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/audit-size.sh"                      # the change: diff from the merge-base plus uncommitted files
"${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/audit-size.sh" src/ lib/util.py     # explicit paths (a missing one is a usage error)
"${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/audit-size.sh" --all                # every tracked or untracked-but-not-ignored file
"${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/audit-size.sh" --json --all src/    # the code-metrics/v2 document instead of markdown

Present the markdown report to the user as printed. It opens with the scope and a "Coverage of this run" table (lane, collector, status, reason), then the reference with its provenance and layer, then one row per file, longest first by lines_non_blank, with its values and whether it is at or above the reference. Keep the --json document when the numbers feed a comparison: /verification:measure metrics consumes it when the verification plugin is installed (treat a report whose status is empty on either side as INCONCLUSIVE); otherwise keep the JSON beside your notes and compare by hand.

What ships with it

3 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-size is a skill published in the GitHub repository melodic-software/claude-code-plugins (25 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 109 tokens to every session and 1,575 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-09-06.
