synthesize

synthesize is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ProsusAI/prism. It costs 77 tokens per session (2,530 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A process for turning recurring failures found in a Git history review into reusable practice skills. It reads an incident file and writes team-independent SKILL.md and plugin.json files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after mining a repository's history for incident clusters, when _analysis/incidents.md is ready to promote into reusable skills.
Why use it?
It preserves lessons from past incidents so the same failure patterns can become repeatable guidance for future work.

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

synthesize 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 9d 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 — 267 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

When to use this skill

Promote qualifying Type 2 seed clusters from _analysis/incidents.md into practice skills. Writes _analysis/extracted_skills_history/{name}/SKILL.md and _analysis/extracted_skills_history/{name}/plugin.json in the current repo with all team-specific details stripped.


Step 1 — Read incidents.md

Read _analysis/incidents.md. This is the required input.

If it doesn't exist, stop and tell the developer:

"_analysis/incidents.md not found. Run /mine-history (Claude Code) or @mine-history (Cursor) first to extract incident clusters from your git history."

Read the file fully. Note each cluster: its name, the directives/findings listed, their dates, and its current status line.

Also check for _analysis/design.md. If it exists, read it fully. Note all findings — both [technology]-tagged and [codebase]-tagged — recording each one's subsystem, category (decision / non-obvious behavior / structural anti-pattern), and the technology or pattern it concerns. Do not skip [codebase]-tagged findings at this stage. If design.md doesn't exist, continue without it.

Pay particular attention to the ## Architectural patterns section of design.md, if present. These are pre-assembled cross-subsystem patterns from Phase 3c of /mine-design (Claude Code) or @mine-design (Cursor). Treat them as first-class candidates with their own promotion path and key-decisions output format (see Step 3 and Step 5).

Individual design seeds that don't reach the assembled-pattern threshold may be better candidates for /synthesize-decisions (Claude Code) or @synthesize-decisions (Cursor). Flag them as such rather than marking them "too thin".


Step 2 — Auto-discover supplementary docs

Without asking the developer, look for documentation that might contain additional failure modes or lessons learned:

ls docs/ 2>/dev/null
ls adr/ 2>/dev/null
ls decisions/ 2>/dev/null
find . -name "ADR*.md" -not -path "*/node_modules/*" 2>/dev/null | head -10
find . -name "ARCHITECTURE*.md" -not -path "*/node_modules/*" 2>/dev/null | head -5
find . -name "CONTRIBUTING*.md" -not -path "*/node_modules/*" 2>/dev/null | head -5
cat CLAUDE.md 2>/dev/null

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.

synthesize is a skill published in the GitHub repository ProsusAI/prism (20 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 77 tokens to every session and 2,530 once invoked, about $0.0004 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.
