no-comments

no-comments is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from OutlineDriven/odin-claude-plugin. It costs 37 tokens per session (1,272 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A workflow for auditing comments in source files and deciding whether each one should remain, be replaced with clearer code, or be removed.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review comments in supported programming, markup, configuration, and shell files before making approved edits.
Why use it?
It helps identify comments that no longer match the code or explain behavior that the code should make clear itself.

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

no-comments 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 today.

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.

No comments

Contract

Field Bound contract
Trigger Audit comments in code files and propose structural replacements or deletions with per-candidate approval.
Authority Human-gated: asks per-candidate approval before modifying source files; otherwise reversible local: writes only the audit ledger and approved source edits; rollback is undo (revert each edited file to its captured pre-edit state). No remote mutation.
Side effect Writes an audit ledger. Applies accepted edits only after the user chooses an action for each candidate.
Done A complete audit ledger with one decision per comment and no unprocessed candidates.

Inputs

Required:

  • Target file paths: one or more file paths or glob patterns identifying files to audit.
  • Comment-syntax catalog: the comment syntax families present in the target files. Supported syntaxes are //, /* */, ///, /** */ (C, JavaScript, TypeScript, Rust, Go, Java, Kotlin, Swift, C#), <!-- --> (HTML, XML, Markdown), # (Python, Ruby, shell, YAML, TOML), -- (SQL, Lua, Haskell), {- -} (Haskell). Files using unsupported syntax are reported and excluded.

Optional:

  • Veto list: specific comment lines, line ranges, or patterns to preserve regardless of category. If no veto list is supplied, every comment is subject to the audit criteria.

Procedure

  1. Receive and validate target file paths. Reject paths that escape the working directory or are not readable. Detect the comment syntax family for each file from its extension or content. Report and exclude files whose syntax is not in the supported catalog. Done when: all valid paths are accepted with their syntax family, and invalid or unsupported-syntax paths are rejected with a reason.
  2. Scan each target file for comments in its detected syntax family. Record line number, text content, and syntax form. Done when: every comment in every target file is recorded with line number, text, and form.
  3. Classify each comment into one of these categories:

What ships with it

1 file 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.
