scout-consolidation

scout-consolidation is a skill for Claude Code from Raven-Scout/scout-plugin. It costs 36 tokens per session (282 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A background Scout job that checks what changed since its previous run and updates its task list and knowledge base. Scout is a personal information system that gathers updates from tools such as Slack, calendars, email, and GitHub.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to start a lighter Scout update, track its process ID, and find the log file for monitoring. It can update existing action items and knowledge-base entries with new messages, events, sent email, or pull requests.
Why use it?
It avoids repeating a full daily scan when you only need recent changes. Running it in the background lets the check continue while you 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

scout-consolidation 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 11d 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

Launch a SCOUT consolidation session as a background process on this machine.

This runs the same script as the briefing but mode is auto-detected from the current hour. If run outside the normal schedule times (8 AM, 11 AM, 1 PM, 5 PM), it defaults to consolidation mode if today's action items already exist, or morning briefing if they don't.

Do the following steps:

  1. Run nohup bash ~/Scout/run-scout.sh > /dev/null 2>&1 & to launch the session in the background. Capture the PID.

  2. Find the most recent log file: ls -t ~/Scout/.scout-logs/scout-*.log | head -1

  3. Report to the user:

    • Confirm the consolidation session is running and show the PID
    • Show the log file path so they can tail it if they want: tail -f <log_file>
    • Remind them that consolidation runs are lighter than morning briefings — they scan for deltas since the last run (new Slack messages, new calendar events, email sent, GitHub PRs) and update the existing action items file and KB accordingly.
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.
