monorepo is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ralfstrobel/agentic-brownfield-coding. It costs 24 tokens per session (3,545 once invoked), scanned B, original, Apache-2.0.

A setup procedure for Claude Code in a monorepo, a repository containing multiple related projects or packages.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare an existing large repository for Claude Code, including agent instructions, command hooks, and platform-specific settings.
Why use it?
It creates shared instructions and project context while accounting for different subprojects and operating systems.

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 B, and why

monorepo scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 4d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (templates/post-edit-hook.sh, templates/statusline.sh, templates/stop-hook.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

Claude Code Monorepo Scaffolding

Your goal is to create an initial setup for Claude Code in a large pre-existing monorepo project, including agent instructions and context information. You work in close collaboration with the user to obtain the required base knowledge about the goals and structure of the project as well as each sub-project.

Additional user arguments: $ARGUMENTS

Language hint: Always create all generated document content in English, while continuing to speak to the user in the language of their choice.

Platform hint: Instructions and templates assume a Linux host with GNU coreutils. Adapt to the detected user OS.

  • macOS — Substitute BSD equivalents for GNU-only utilities.
  • Windows — Still use .sh files (skip irrelevant chmod +x), assuming Git Bash is available at runtime. Highlight this requirement in the Debriefing. Set "shell": "bash" on command hooks in settings.json. Omit the entire sandbox block from settings.json as long as bash sandboxing is unsupported.

Agent Content Principles

When generating content for .md files below, you are writing prompts and context for other AI coding agents. Follow these principles to optimally tailor your instructions to their needs:

  • Concise — Minimize token usage. Prefer keywords and terse bullet points over prose.
  • Structured — Use compact Markdown to delineate connected aspects.
  • Actionable — Generate concrete operational directives, not abstract guidelines. Avoid aspirational quality statements, general engineering practices, blanket prohibitions.
  • Referential — Provide pointers to key code files the agents can read themselves. Do not describe how code works in agent instructions as such duplication leads to drift.
  • Scoped — Context is hierarchical. The central CLAUDE.md applies to every scope and must only contain core project identity and semantics. Sub-project CLAUDE.md, rules and agent instructions progressively disclose domain- and task-specific knowledge.
  • Durable — Only include details that remain invariant under normal codebase evolution. Avoid specific technology versions. Reference namespaces or search terms instead of single artifacts.

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.

monorepo is a skill published in the GitHub repository ralfstrobel/agentic-brownfield-coding (28 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 24 tokens to every session and 3,545 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (reads agent configuration directories). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
