zoom-out

zoom-out is a skill for Claude Code from OutlineDriven/odin-codex-plugin. It costs 51 tokens per session (210 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A code-exploration method for understanding the modules around an unfamiliar piece of code and the callers connected to it.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps map surrounding modules, incoming callers, outgoing dependencies, ownership boundaries, and input/output points before editing code.
Why use it?
It prevents changes based on too narrow a view of the code and reveals where important assumptions and side effects live.

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

zoom-out 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 4d 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.

What it actually says

Stop reading the local fragment. Climb one level of abstraction and produce a map: which modules surround this region, who calls into it, what it calls out to, and where its invariants live. Dispatch an Explore agent (fd-first discovery, then git grep/ast-grep for call-site enumeration) rather than reading individual files — the goal is structural orientation, not line-level detail.

Output is a compact module-and-caller map, not a narrative. Name the surrounding components, the inbound and outbound edges, and any obvious invariant boundaries (transactional scope, ownership, IO surfaces). Stop at one layer up unless the user asks for more — over-zoom dilutes the orientation.

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.

fix

Polymorphic iterative repair loop — accept a verifier failure, structured findings (review/resolve/triage-issue), or a bug description; modify→verify→keep on green, auto-revert on guard regression, until clean or iteration cap. Use when the user says "fix", "make it pass", or "apply the findings", or hands an artifact…

ast-grep

Code search, analysis, and refactoring using ast-grep (sg). Use for AST-based code modifications, structural search, and linting.

qa

Conversational QA mode — user reports bugs in plain language, agent clarifies minimally, files GitHub issues that survive refactors. Trigger on "QA", "QA session", or ad-hoc bug reporting without a fixed deliverable shape. Distinct from branch-scoped and PR-scoped review.

triage-issue

Investigate a reported bug to root cause, then emit a TDD-shaped fix plan as an issue artifact. Trigger when the user reports a bug, says "triage", asks for issue investigation, or wants a fix plan before code changes.

gh-fix-ci

Inspect GitHub PR checks with gh, pull failing GitHub Actions logs, summarize the failure, then plan and implement the fix after user approval. Use when the user asks to debug or fix failing PR CI on GitHub Actions; external checks (Buildkite, etc.) are reported as URLs only.

debug

Hypothesis-driven defect isolation — stack-trace forensics, breakpoint strategy, state inspection, and root-cause confirmation via minimal repro. Use when a defect surfaces (test failure, crash, exception, wrong output, intermittent flake) and the cause is not immediately obvious from the change set.
