About the project

Claude Octopus is an orchestration project that sends research, design, and coding tasks to Claude Code and other AI model providers so their results can be compared. Developers use it for multi-model work, disagreement detection, reviews, persistent context, and an optional workflow that moves from discovery through delivery. The catalogue entries are its commands, skills, agents, instructions, hooks, plugins, and settings.

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

sys-configure 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.

What it actually says

Configuration to setup redirect

This skill is an alias for /octo:setup. When triggered, invoke the setup command directly.

Setup uses a separate, private resume receipt. It rechecks readiness before trusting a recorded stage, leaves interrupted human login incomplete, and marks the receipt complete only after strict configuration persistence and readback. The user runs browser-opening authentication in their own terminal. Remote sessions never open it automatically.

Action: Run /octo:setup — the interactive setup wizard handles all configuration:

  • Provider installation and auth
  • RTK token optimization
  • Work mode selection
  • First-run onboarding

Do NOT duplicate setup logic here. Read ${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/commands/setup.md and follow it only because the user explicitly invoked this configuration skill.

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.
