related

related is a skill for Claude Code from rvdbreemen/adr-kit. It costs 18 tokens per session (165 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only command that shows how one ADR, or architecture decision record, is connected to other ADRs. It identifies incoming links, outgoing links, broken links, and unclear matches.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect the relationships around a specific ADR and check whether its references are valid or ambiguous.
Why use it?
It makes dependencies between decisions visible and helps find references that point nowhere without changing your files.

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

related 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

ADR relationships

Reply in the language the user writes in; default to English. Keep command output, identifiers, paths, and ADR file content unchanged.

Invoke explicitly with $adr-kit:related when needed. Resolve <plugin-root> from this installed skill. Use only bundled, local ADR Kit tools and follow this canonical workflow:

  1. Run adr-related <ADR-NNN> --adr-dir docs/adr --format json and report typed inbound, outbound, dangling, and ambiguous links.

Do not contact another model or mutate user-owned instructions.

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.
