truthmark: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/truthmark-sync/SKILL.md

truthmark-sync is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from merlinhu1/truthmark. It costs 76 tokens per session (337 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A skill that updates a repository’s canonical documentation after functional code changes, so the documentation continues to describe the code accurately. It can also be run explicitly with a Truth Sync command.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it at the end of code changes to inspect relevant documentation and update it when needed. It does not apply to documentation-only or formatting-only changes.
Why use it?
It helps prevent documentation from becoming outdated when the implementation changes.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for Claude Code and Codex: user-invocable in frontmatter, but also agents/openai.yaml present. Also seen: mentions subagents; installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents); $skill-name invocation.

This is merlinhu1/truthmark's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on truthmark itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything truthmark configures →

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

truthmark-sync 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 1mo 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.

What it actually says

Truthmark Sync

Use this skill automatically before finishing when functional code changed since the last successful Truth Sync. Also run it immediately when the user explicitly invokes Truth Sync.

Quick procedure:

  • Skip docs-only, formatting-only, behavior-preserving renames with no truth impact, missing config, and no-code changes.
  • Inspect .truthmark/config.yml and configured route files (docs/truthmark/routes/areas.md; docs/truthmark/routes/areas/) only when they exist; then inspect relevant canonical docs directly.
  • Direct checkout inspection is the canonical path; do not require the truthmark binary.
  • May write canonical truth docs and truth routing files only; must not rewrite functional code.

Reference files:

  • Procedure: core review questions; read before edits or detailed auditing. See procedure.md.
  • Report template: read before writing the final report. See report-template.md.
  • Subagents and leases: read only when using subagents, leases, or accepting worker output. See subagents-and-leases.md.
Files

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.
