code-tour

code-tour is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from New1Direction/korgex. It costs 53 tokens per session (1,673 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of code-tour, MIT.

A CodeTour file is a guided walkthrough of a codebase that links each explanation to real files and line ranges. This add-on creates tours for specific readers and goals.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for developer onboarding, architecture explanations, pull-request reviews, incident investigations, or security walkthroughs.
Why use it?
A flat explanation can leave newcomers unsure where to look next. Anchored steps provide a repeatable path through unfamiliar code.

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-tour 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.

Origin

This is a copy

86% identical to code-tour — 42 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 237 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Code Tour

Create CodeTour .tour files for codebase walkthroughs that open directly to real files and line ranges. Tours live in .tours/ and are meant for the CodeTour format, not ad hoc Markdown notes.

A good tour is a narrative for a specific reader:

  • what they are looking at
  • why it matters
  • what path they should follow next

Only create .tour JSON files. Do not modify source code as part of this skill.

When to Use

Use this skill when:

  • the user asks for a code tour, onboarding tour, architecture walkthrough, or PR tour
  • the user says "explain how X works" and wants a reusable guided artifact
  • the user wants a ramp-up path for a new engineer or reviewer
  • the task is better served by a guided sequence than a flat summary

Examples:

  • onboarding a new maintainer
  • architecture tour for one service or package
  • PR-review walk-through anchored to changed files
  • RCA tour showing the failure path
  • security review tour of trust boundaries and key checks

When NOT to Use

Instead of code-tour Use
A one-off explanation in chat is enough answer directly
The user wants prose docs, not a .tour artifact documentation-lookup or repo docs editing
The task is implementation or refactoring do the implementation work
The task is broad codebase onboarding without a tour artifact codebase-onboarding

Workflow

1. Discover

Explore the repo before writing anything:

  • README and package/app entry points
  • folder structure
  • relevant config files
  • the changed files if the tour is PR-focused

Do not start writing steps before you understand the shape of the code.

2. Infer the reader

Decide the persona and depth from the request.

Request shape Persona Suggested depth
"onboarding", "new joiner" new-joiner 9-13 steps
"quick tour", "vibe check" vibecoder 5-8 steps
"architecture" architect 14-18 steps
"tour this PR" pr-reviewer 7-11 steps
"why did this break" rca-investigator 7-11 steps
"security review" security-reviewer 7-11 steps
"explain how this feature works" feature-explainer 7-11 steps
"debug this path" bug-fixer 7-11 steps

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.
