SkillSpector: 1 finding, up to low
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →
- low Excessive Agency · line 11 Skill's behavior or capabilities extend beyond its stated purpose. Scope creep allows an agent to perform actions unrelated to its documented functionality, increasing the attack surface.Fix: Limit the skill's scope to its documented purpose. Remove instructions that enable the agent to perform actions outside its stated functionality.
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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00067 | $0.01176 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00027 | $0.00470 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00013 | $0.00235 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00118 |
Grade A, and why
audit 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 1mo 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 36 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Audit - orchestrated project review
You are the coordinator. Spawn a team of sub-agents to review in parallel, then synthesize ONE report. Run from the repo root. $ARGUMENTS may scope the audit (e.g. "cowork only", "patches only"); default = full.
Use the AskUserQuestion tool (not limited to 4) whenever a finding needs the user's call. Read /architecture and /linux context first if unsure of the domain.
Pre-flight (you do this before fan-out)
- Ensure a fresh unpatched upstream extract exists for patch comparison: if
./tmp/app.asar.contents/.vite/build/index.jsis missing or older than today, run/fresh-upstream(or tell the user and run the manual .deb crack + asar flow). Patches must be judged against the true current upstream, not a stale extract. - Note
.upstream-versionvs the highest version in the official apt Packages index. Check~/.config/Claude/logs/exists for the log workstream.
Fan out - spawn these workstreams as parallel agents (Explore/general-purpose)
Give each agent the project path, the fresh-extract path, and ask for findings + file:line evidence + a recommended action, not file dumps.
- Patches vs upstream. For each
patches/*/*.nim: does its target still exist in the fresh./tmpbundle? Run./scripts/validate-patches.sh ./tmp/app.asar.contentsand report pass/fail. For failures, classify: pattern renamed / code refactored / feature removed / feature upstreamed (→ needs regression guard). Flag patches that may be vestigial (target gone, no longer needed) and gaps (new darwin/win32 gates with no Linux patch - diffprocess.platformold vs new). VerifyEXPECTED_PATCHESstrictness + no false-success idempotency (AGENTS.md Rule 6). - Docs accuracy. Cross-check
baseline/CLAUDE_FEATURE_FLAGS.md,CLAUDE_BUILT_IN_MCP.md,ION.md,PLATFORM_GATE_BASELINE.md,README.mdpatch table, andAGENTS.mdagainst the actual current bundle + patches. Flag stale minified names, wrong counts, removed features still documented. (ReadCHANGELOG.mdhead only: offset 1, limit 60.) - Linux compatibility. Walk the support matrix (X11, Wayland-wlroots, Wayland-GNOME, Wayland-KDE, XWayland) × (Arch/Ubuntu/Debian/Fedora/RHEL/NixOS/Jetson, x86_64+aarch64). Check input (
js/cu_linux_executor.js,executor_linux.js) + screenshot cascades still cover each session, the glibc floor (2.34 overall; kwin-portal-bridge 2.39) holds, launcher session detection is sound. Surface edge cases (ydotoold version, Niri, immutable distros, sandboxed/portal identity). - Cowork backend (bundled native VM). Cowork runs on the
.deb's bundled native VM backend (cowork-linux-helper + virtiofsd + smol-bin + QEMU/OVMF; requires/dev/kvm). The oldclaude-cowork-serviceGo daemon is deprecated and out of scope. Verify the Cowork-relatedpatches/*/*.nimstill match their targets in the fresh./tmpbundle and that any regression guards still assert the upstreamed behavior. Flag drift against the current bundle. - Runtime logs (if present). Scan
~/.config/Claude/logs/{main,cowork_vm_node,mcp,claude.ai-web}.logfor errors/exceptions, permission denials, dispatch bridge issues (DISPATCH-FWD/DISPATCH-TRANSFORM), and renderer crashes.cowork_vm_node.logis the bundled backend's Electron-side log (still valid). Defer deep dispatch/cowork debugging to/debug.
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.

audit is a skill published in the GitHub repository patrickjaja/claude-desktop-extra (726 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 67 tokens to every session and 1,176 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
