code-breaking-changes

A checklist for finding changes that could break external integration points. It focuses on app-server APIs, command-line options, configuration loading, and restoring existing sessions.

In plain words
What is it for?
It supports reviews of API changes, CLI parameter changes, configuration behavior, and session-resume behavior across all relevant paths.
Why use it?
It helps catch compatibility problems that may be missed when reviewing only internal code changes.

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

code-breaking-changes 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.

Origin

This is a copy

100% identical to code-breaking-changes — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

Search for breaking changes in external integration surfaces:

  • app-server APIs
  • CLI parameters
  • configuration loading
  • resuming sessions from existing rollouts

Do not stop after finding one issue; analyze all possible ways breaking changes can happen.

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.
