aidp-catalog-init

aidp-catalog-init is a skill for Claude Code from oracle-samples/oracle-aidp-samples. It costs 89 tokens per session (1,943 once invoked), scanned A, original, UPL-1.0.

A one-time command that discovers the structure of a data lakehouse, a system for storing and analysing large collections of data, and saves the findings in a catalog file. The catalog records tables, columns, relationships, and useful value descriptions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when setting up data discovery, mapping a lakehouse, or before answering data questions when no catalog file exists.
Why use it?
It gives an AI agent a durable map of the available data, so later questions do not require repeatedly inspecting the whole lakehouse.

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

aidp-catalog-init 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 17d 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.

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.
