wayfind

wayfind is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from melodic-software/claude-code-plugins. It costs 140 tokens per session (3,525 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A decision map for large efforts that are both unclear and too broad to plan at once.

In plain words
What is it for?
It tracks open decisions, works through the next unresolved ones, and hands the finished direction to a brief, product requirements document, or implementation plan.
Why use it?
It breaks uncertainty into smaller decisions instead of forcing a plan before the destination is understood.

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.

Part of the planning plugin — 10 skills shipped together

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

wayfind 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.

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.

Purpose

Some efforts are too big to hold at once AND too foggy to ticket. You can't yet phrase half the questions, let alone answer them. /planning:interview needs a coherent task; /planning:plan needs a coherent plan; both presuppose you already know what you're deciding. /planning:wayfind sits upstream of all of them: it turns a too-big-foggy effort into a shared decision map on the work-item tracker, then works that map's frontier one decision at a time until the fog burns off and a real destination (Brief / PRD / PLAN) can be handed onward.

Plan, don't do. A map holds decisions, not build work. Each decision item, once resolved, either sharpens the map or graduates to the destination. The moment the destination is coherent, the map closes and the normal pipeline (/planning:interview → /planning:design → /planning:plan → /implementation:implement) takes over. The map persists as native tracker primitives, each decision routes to a first-party skill, and execution artifacts live in <memory_dir>/<slug>/ (default .work/). The topic-docs convention's memory tier, slug spec and all (see ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/reference/topic-docs.md) never in the map itself.

Two modes. chart builds or extends a map (interactive only). work picks one item off the map's frontier and drives it to resolution. The default action auto-detects: an existing open map for the topic → work; nothing yet → chart.

The fog test (the one call that governs everything)

For every uncertainty, ask: can I phrase it as a sharp question?

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.

wayfind is a skill published in the GitHub repository melodic-software/claude-code-plugins (15 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 140 tokens to every session and 3,525 once invoked, about $0.0007 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.
