nhk-upkeep is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Rainnystone/naive-harness-kit. It costs 26 tokens per session (1,494 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A maintenance procedure for an existing NHK workspace, including its instructions, task routing, planning, governance, archive index, and tracking descriptions.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for repairing drift in an established NHK workspace after its foundation already exists.
Why use it?
It helps bring documented workspace rules and references back in line with how the workspace actually works.

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

nhk-upkeep 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.

NHK Upkeep

Use this skill only after the NHK foundation exists. It reconciles NHK-owned rules with the currently installed references and repairs active project descriptions; it does not bootstrap missing surfaces or perform an archive transition.

Router Handoff

Reuse a welcome-to-nhk handoff only when it is for the current workspace and current NHK run, and its Route selects this skill. If the handoff is absent, unresolved, or stale, run welcome-to-nhk first. If it selects another route, hand off and do not continue upkeep.

Use the handoff's dependency, instruction, topology, and complete-foundation state as the maintenance input. Do not persist the handoff or repeat the topology decision inside upkeep.

Maintenance Pass

On every upkeep run, compare NHK-owned rules against the currently installed reference contracts, even when workspace documents look complete and project facts have not changed. Read the matching canonical instruction template, all five companion templates, and the archive-index template through the paths below, plus the agent-definition template only when NHK agent definitions exist. Reuse applicable content already read in this context only when it is unchanged. This comparison uses the installed bundle; upkeep does not fetch or install NHK updates.

  1. Compare the canonical instruction and thin adapter, if present, against the live workspace and the matching ../references/AGENTS-template.md or ../references/CLAUDE-template.md; keep the canonical topology and applicable line budget.
  2. Compare the single Task Routing table in coding-agent-guide.md against current routes and ../references/coding-agent-guide-template.md; keep it at or below 80 lines.
  3. Compare implementation-planning.md against ../references/implementation-planning-template.md; keep its Superpowers-compatible task contract and 80-line limit.
  4. Compare worker-policy.md against ../references/worker-policy-template.md; reconcile dispatch, review, and tier permissions within 100 lines, following its legacy tier migration.
  5. Compare execution-recovery.md against ../references/execution-recovery-template.md; reconcile diagnosis, recovery, and stop rules within 80 lines.
  6. Compare documentation-governance.md against actual document roles and ../references/documentation-governance-template.md; keep it at or below 100 lines.
  7. Compare archive/README.md against existing archived workstreams and ../references/archive-readme-template.md; keep every index entry resolvable.
  8. When .claude/agents/nhk-*.md definitions exist, compare them against ../references/claude-agents-template.md and reconcile their frontmatter and shared body. Create any missing current definition in that set and report each retired definition the template names for the human to delete. An absent set stays absent; the human declined or was never offered it.
  9. Inspect existing implementation plans, task lists, task_plan.md, progress.md, and findings.md as active surfaces, not permanent assumptions.
  10. Repair inaccurate active references and status descriptions, replace any Claude companion @ import with a literal on-demand path, then verify cross-links and instruction structure.

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.
