manage

manage is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from melodic-software/claude-code-plugins. It costs 225 tokens per session (3,321 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

A Windows-only workflow manager for removing DRM from Kindle books you own using Kindle for PC and Calibre. DRM is copy protection applied to some digital books.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to provision the Kindle and Calibre tools, sync owned books, update the workflow, clean it up, or inspect its current state.
Why use it?
It coordinates a fragile setup across several tools and records reversible setup, synchronization, updating, cleanup, and status actions.

Installs and runs on its own, but its text points at files inside its plugin — anything it tells you to read at a ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} path is only there once the plugin is installed. Installing the plugin gets both.

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 C, and why

manage scanned grade C 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 yesterday.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 10 executable files (scripts/check-drift.sh, scripts/check-drift.test.sh, scripts/cleanup.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.

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 174 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Purpose

Personal-use Kindle DRM removal is a fragile multi-tool workflow with state mutations that, if forgotten, leave the user's machine in an awkward state (silent auto-update, stuck firewall rules, half-installed Calibre plugins). This skill captures the lifecycle as discrete reversible actions and tracks every upstream source that drifts independently (Amazon's Kindle for PC release cadence, Satsuoni's DeDRM_tools fork, Kindle_Key_Finder zip with rolling date in URL, techy-notes.com tutorial article).

Scope: Windows-only (Kindle for PC + KFXKeyExtractor are Windows binaries). Single-user. Books the user owns.

Pre-computed context

Probe current state on every invocation. Run scripts/status.sh and read the JSON output before deciding which action applies.

bash "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/manage/scripts/status.sh"

Output reports: Kindle for PC version, firewall rule presence, ICACLS deny presence, ~/Tools/Kindle_Key_Finder presence, ~/Downloads installer presence, Calibre install presence, Calibre plugin presence (best-effort), book count in My Kindle Content + Calibre Library.

Action router

Action When What it does
(empty) Default. Auto-detect from status If pristine → recommend /kindle-dedrm:setup. If state OK + user mentioned new books → recommend sync. Otherwise emit status report
setup First-time install Delegates to the dedicated /kindle-dedrm:setup skill (uniform check/apply contract): provisioning walkthrough: download, install Kindle for PC 2.8.0, sign-in checkpoint, sync books, install Calibre plugins, run keyfinder, apply firewall + ICACLS lockdown
sync New books purchased after initial setup Disable firewall, prompt user to sync in Kindle, delete cached installer, re-enable firewall, re-run keyfinder
update Periodic drift check WebFetch tutorial URLs + gh API for upstream releases, diff against captured baselines in reference/sources.md, emit drift report. No mutations
cleanup Decommission Walk through every reversible mutation with per-item Y/N. Default (confirm-each) offers the firewall rule, ICACLS deny, keyfinder, and downloads; --soft limits to tools + downloads (keeps the firewall/ICACLS lock and Kindle for PC); --full also offers to uninstall Kindle for PC and remove Calibre plugins. The Calibre Library is never offered
status Diagnostic Same as default empty action

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.
