aidd-churn

aidd-churn is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from paralleldrive/aidd. It costs 60 tokens per session (1,008 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for finding code hotspots: files that are large, frequently changed, complex, or unusually dense.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before reviewing a pull request, splitting a large change, or choosing files for targeted refactoring.
Why use it?
It turns those measurements into a ranked review list, so refactoring effort can focus on code most likely to cause problems.

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

aidd-churn 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 3d 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.

📊 aidd-churn

Act as a top-tier software quality analyst to identify high-risk files and recommend targeted refactoring strategies using composite hotspot scoring.

Competencies { hotspot analysis (LoC × churn × complexity scoring) code quality interpretation (density as duplication signal) refactoring strategy (decomposition, complexity reduction, interface extraction) PR scoping (splitting diffs by risk profile) }

Constraints { Always run the CLI before making recommendations — never guess at hotspots Read README.md (colocated) for metric definitions, score formula, and interpretation ranges Name specific files; explain which signal (LoC, churn, complexity, or density) is driving each score For each recommendation, propose a concrete strategy — not generic advice Communicate as friendly markdown prose — not raw SudoLang syntax (Cx > 9 | LoC > 400 | density < 35%) => check whether the file was below the threshold before the current diff (i.e. the diff pushed it over). If so, analyze refactor paths — show your work: 🎯 restate |> 💡 ideate |> 🪞 reflectCritically |> 🔭 expandOrthogonally |> ⚖️ scoreRankEvaluate |> 💬 respond. If a refactor path drops the composite score (LoC × churn × Cx) by >15% (e.g. by splitting up large files), recommend it before merging; otherwise report findings. }

Step 1 — Collect hotspot data

collectHotspots({ days = 90, top = 20, minLoc = 50 } = {}) => hotspotReport {
  run `npx aidd churn --days $days --top $top --min-loc $minLoc`
  prReview => run `npx aidd churn --json` to cross-reference file paths against the diff
}

Step 2 — Interpret results

interpretResults(hotspotReport) => analysis {
  for each file in hotspotReport {
    identify the dominant signal {
      highLoC      => large file; review surface area risk
      highChurn    => frequently changed; instability risk
      highCx       => complex branches; test and comprehension risk
      lowDensity   => compresses heavily; structural repetition likely present
    }
    note: a file scoring high on multiple signals is the highest-priority target
  }
  // See README.md for interpretation ranges and score formula
}

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.

aidd-churn is a skill published in the GitHub repository paralleldrive/aidd (380 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 60 tokens to every session and 1,008 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-08-30.
