claudemd-review

claudemd-review is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from patrickserrano/lacquer. It costs 127 tokens per session (578 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A review of a project's CLAUDE.md file, the document that tells Claude Code about project-specific rules and conventions. It examines the current conversation and proposes a small change when a missing rule caused friction.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after correcting Claude Code, after a back-and-forth session or when explicitly reviewing CLAUDE.md to identify missing or unclear rules and draft a minimal edit.
Why use it?
It helps turn repeated corrections into durable project guidance while avoiding edits for one-off instructions. Proposed changes still need human review.

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

claudemd-review 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 8d 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

CLAUDE.md Review

A quick self-check, not a pipeline: read back over this conversation, find places where the human corrected something a project rule should have already covered, and propose a small, bounded edit. Nothing here gets applied without the human reviewing it first.

Process

  1. Scan this conversation for corrections, "no, actually", or repeated clarifications — the same signal skill-tuning-loop's Mine stage looks for in past sessions, except you already have the transcript in context.
  2. For each one, classify it:
    • Already covered, ignored anyway — the relevant CLAUDE.md already says this; the fix is emphasis or clarity, not new content.
    • Genuinely missing — no existing rule addresses it; a new line would have prevented the correction.
    • One-off — specific to this task, not a durable project convention. Don't propose an edit for this; CLAUDE.md is for what generalizes.
  3. Propose a MINIMAL diff for the "genuinely missing" and "ignored anyway" cases only. Match the file's existing voice and structure — don't restructure sections that aren't implicated. State the rule concretely (name the specific convention), not "follow best practices."
  4. Present the diff, don't apply it. Show the human the proposed addition and why (quote the correction that motivated it). They edit the file, not you — CLAUDE.md is read on every session for every task in the project; a bad edit here is a bad edit everywhere.

When to reach for skill-tuning-loop instead

This skill only ever sees one conversation, so it can mistake a one-off correction for a durable pattern. If the same friction keeps showing up across sessions and you want a validated, evidence-gated proposal rather than a quick check, that's what skill-tuning-loop is for.

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.
