federal-site-screen

federal-site-screen is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from pranava0x0/Commonwealth-MCP. It costs 106 tokens per session (1,758 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

An environmental site-screening workflow checks one location against Virginia records and federal layers, including flood hazards, contaminated sites, and wetlands.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps assess environmental constraints on a parcel before planning or developing a project.
Why use it?
It keeps the location consistent across different data sources and shows which source supports each finding, so the results are easier to verify.

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

federal-site-screen 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 yesterday.

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 — 150 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Federal site screen

[[site-context-screen]] answers what is on and around a piece of ground from Virginia's own layers, and its only environmental layer is the state's water-quality monitoring stations. The constraints that stop a project are mostly federal: the flood map, the wetland inventory, the cleanup-site registers. Those are published, and a partner MCP server already exposes them.

This walk is the join. Its whole difficulty is that the two halves come from different servers with different provenance rules, and an answer that blends them into one paragraph destroys the reader's ability to check either. So it keeps two sets of claims over one point on the ground, and says which server produced each.

1. Establish the frame

  • One point, carried forward unchanged. Everything downstream keys off a coordinate. Geocode once, resolve the government once, and pass the same coordinate to every subsequent step, including the partner's. Two halves screened at two slightly different points is the failure mode that produces a confident, internally inconsistent answer.
  • The parcel is the unit a person cares about; the point is the unit the screens accept. Report both, and say when a parcel is large enough that a single-point screen says little about the rest of it.
  • A screen tells you where to look next. Flood zone, wetland presence and cleanup-site proximity come from layers whose publishers name a different authority as the one that determines each. The reader is one step from treating the answer as a finding, and the answer has to keep saying who decides.
  • The partner is not this registry. Its coverage, its dates and its limits are its own. Nothing this project's provenance envelope says applies to the partner's rows, and vice versa.

2. Minimum data walk

Step 1 — resolve the address to a point and a government. Geocode the address, then place the coordinate. Ambiguous candidates in different governments stop the walk, as in [[whose-government]]: screening the wrong point is worse than not screening.

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.

federal-site-screen is a skill published in the GitHub repository pranava0x0/Commonwealth-MCP (0 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 106 tokens to every session and 1,758 once invoked, about $0.0005 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 2026-09-10.
