vc:watzup

vc:watzup is a skill for Claude Code from opencue/cuecards. It costs 42 tokens per session (847 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only status summary tool for a coding repository and its ongoing work. It reports branch and worktree state, remote references, active plans, and possible next checks; a worktree is a separate working copy of a repository.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when resuming work, handing a branch to someone else, or checking which plans and repository changes are currently active.
Why use it?
It gives you a quick handoff view without changing files, choosing a plan, or starting implementation.

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

vc:watzup 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/watzup-scan.cjs, scripts/watzup-scan.test.cjs), 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 — 101 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Watzup

Summarize the current Flowser repo state for handoff and resume work.

This is a helper skill only.

  • Do use it for read-only branch, worktree, and active-plan summaries.
  • Do use it to surface likely selected-plan context when it can be proven or safely hinted.
  • Do not use it to choose a plan authoritatively.
  • Do not use it to approve execution, resume execution, or mutate repo/process state.

Core Contract

watzup is advisory.

  • Evidence comes from git, worktree metadata, and process/* plan inventory.
  • Selected-plan awareness is a hint, not a command.
  • Next-step recommendations are suggestions, not workflow gates.

If a user needs execution, the repo still requires explicit plan selection and ENTER EXECUTE MODE.

Invocation

Run the local scanner:

node .Codex/skills/watzup/scripts/watzup-scan.cjs --json

Useful flags:

node .Codex/skills/watzup/scripts/watzup-scan.cjs
node .Codex/skills/watzup/scripts/watzup-scan.cjs --json --max-branches 8 --plan-limit 6
node .Codex/skills/watzup/scripts/watzup-scan.cjs --selected-plan process/general-plans/active/example_PLAN_27-05-26.md
node .Codex/skills/watzup/scripts/watzup-scan.cjs --since "14 days ago"
node .Codex/skills/watzup/scripts/watzup-scan.cjs --fetch

Input Sources

The scanner reads from:

  • git status --short --branch
  • git worktree list --porcelain
  • local and remote branch refs plus sampled recent commits
  • process/general-plans/active/
  • process/features/*/active/
  • optional session-state hints if a local session id is present

It does not scan upstream plans/**, and it never treats a selected-plan hint as execute authority.

Output Shape

The default output is a human-readable report with these sections:

  • Current State
  • Recent Work
  • In-Flight Plans
  • Next Steps
  • Warnings

--json returns the same information as structured data.

If the scanner fails, say that explicitly and fall back to the minimal read-only commands:

git status --short --branch
git worktree list --porcelain
git for-each-ref --format='%(refname:short) %(committerdate:iso8601) %(objectname:short) %(subject)' refs/heads refs/remotes
find process/general-plans/active process/features -path '*/active/*' -type f | sort

What ships with it

3 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.
