lighter-checks

lighter-checks is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from OutlineDriven/odin-claude-plugin. It costs 48 tokens per session (828 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A verification workflow that runs the minimum complete checks needed to support specific delivery claims.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to choose and run scoped type checks, linting, and tests once for the affected languages and claims.
Why use it?
It avoids repeating checks that already proved the same thing or rerunning code that was not changed.

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

lighter-checks 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 6d 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.

Contract

Field Bound contract
Trigger Checking has started to loop, a check would re-run against untouched code, a second tool would prove what the first proved, or the user asks to stop over-checking and ship.
Authority Read commands and emit a delivery decision only; do not mutate files, version control, credentials, paid services, publications, deployments, or remote state.
Side effect Run scoped typecheck, lint, and test verification once per touched language, trim redundant verification, and report whether delivery may proceed.
Done One proving action has run per claim, no action was repeated for reassurance, each touched language's complete project gate ran once, and the result is delivered on the first green gate.

Inputs

Required inputs are the claims to prove, the changed files or explicitly bounded changed surface, the languages touched, and the project's typecheck, lint, and test commands for those languages. Supplied results must include their command, scope, and outcome. Never assume an optional input establishes evidence.

Procedure

  1. Bound verification to the supplied changed surface and touched languages. If either is unknown, stop rather than inspect or verify unrelated scope. Done when: the changed surface and touched languages are bounded, or the skill stops for unknown scope.

  2. Map each claim to the narrowest action that directly proves it. Reuse a supplied result only when its command and scope cover that claim and the relevant code has not changed since it ran. Done when: every claim is mapped to one narrowest proving action or a reused result that covers it.

  3. Remove any proposed re-run against unchanged code and any second tool that covers the same failure class as an accepted result. Keep a second action only if it proves a distinct claim or failure class. Done when: no redundant re-runs or duplicate-class tools remain in the plan.

  4. Run the project's complete typecheck, lint, and test gate once for every touched language. Use the narrowest project-supported scope that still covers the changed surface; use a repository-wide command only when no narrower command covers it. Done when: one complete gate has run per touched language.

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.

lighter-checks is a skill published in the GitHub repository OutlineDriven/odin-claude-plugin (35 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 48 tokens to every session and 828 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-04.
