atprotoing

atprotoing is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from oaustegard/claude-skills. It costs 179 tokens per session (1,757 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A reader for Bluesky and ATProto data that can work through the underlying network services instead of relying only on Bluesky's main app service. ATProto is the open protocol behind Bluesky accounts, posts, and related records.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to read feeds and threads, inspect posts and records, find likes or replies, resolve accounts to their identifiers and hosting servers, trace references, and diagnose which network layer is failing.
Why use it?
It can help investigate posts, replies, account history, and service outages when Bluesky's usual app service is unavailable or incomplete.

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

atprotoing 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 11d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 5 executable files (__init__.py, scripts/__init__.py, scripts/atproto.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 126 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

ATProtoing

Reads the atmosphere from sources that stay up when Bluesky PLC's AppView does not. On 2026-08-16 the AppView timed out and Jetstream returned 503 while PDSes and Constellation served every request — this skill is built around that split.

Invoke

python3 <skill>/scripts/atproto.py <command> [--json]

Digest output is the default and is what belongs in a transcript. Reach for --json only when the result will be transformed programmatically; raw records are large and re-reading them into context defeats the purpose.

Command Answers
feed [actor] [--hours 3] [--html PATH] The Following timeline, threaded
status [--actor X] Which layer is broken right now
interactions <actor> [--hours 8] [--scan 100] Who liked/replied/reposted/quoted recent posts
thread <at-uri> Replies to a post
posts <actor> [--limit] An actor's posts, from their own PDS
records <actor> <collection> Any collection in any repo
resolve <actor> DID, handle, PDS host
backlinks <target> [--collection C --path P] What references a record or account, in ANY lexicon
identity <actor> Handle renames and PDS migrations, from the PLC audit log
lexicons [query] [--hours N] [--others] [--schema NSID] Which collections are active network-wide

Source model

Each read targets the cheapest source that survives independently. Prefer the PDS for anything a repo owns — it is authoritative and had no outage.

Need Source
Records of a known repo That repo's PDS
Who interacted with a URI Constellation (constellation.microcosm.blue)
handle ↔ DID ↔ PDS, and its history plc.directory, entryway resolveHandle
Which collections are active network-wide UFOs (ufos-api.microcosm.blue)
Search, feed generators, chat AppView only — no substitute; say so

feed is the one composite read: there is no AppView-free getTimeline, so it rebuilds the Following timeline from follows → PLC → each followee's PDS, then hydrates what the AppView would have inlined — facet byte-ranges to character ranges, blob CIDs to cdn.bsky.app URLs, quote and parent URIs to fetched records — and threads the result by reply root. --html writes a self-contained Preact reader (same components as austegard.com/bsky/thread-reader.html), so a feed request is one call, not a fan-out the caller re-derives by hand. Ranking, mutes, and blocks live in the AppView and are absent by construction: this is the raw follow graph.

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.
