calibrate

calibrate is a skill for Claude Code from sharpdeveye/maestro. It costs 27 tokens per session (676 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow consistency tool for aligning names, prompt formats, configuration keys, file names, and error handling. It is meant for projects whose agents, skills, or other workflow parts have drifted apart.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when reviewing workflow components, onboarding a team member's work, or standardizing tool and agent conventions. It can guide checks for naming, prompt structure, output formats, and error behavior.
Why use it?
Inconsistent conventions make systems harder for both developers and coding agents to understand and maintain. This tool helps identify and bring those differences back to shared project standards.

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

calibrate 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.

MANDATORY PREPARATION

Invoke /agent-workflow — it contains workflow principles, anti-patterns, and the Context Gathering Protocol. Follow the protocol before proceeding — if no workflow context exists yet, you MUST run /teach-maestro first. Consult the prompt-engineering reference in the agent-workflow skill for naming and style consistency patterns.


Ensure consistency across all workflow components. Inconsistency creates confusion — for the model, for developers, and for users.

Calibration Dimensions

Naming Conventions

  • Tool names follow consistent pattern (verb_noun, noun.verb, or camelCase — pick one)
  • Agent names follow consistent pattern
  • Configuration keys follow consistent pattern
  • File names follow consistent pattern

Prompt Style

  • All prompts use the same structural pattern (4-zone)
  • Consistent delimiter style (XML tags, markdown headers, triple-dash)
  • Consistent output schema format (JSON schema, markdown template)
  • Consistent instruction style (imperative, numbered steps)

Error Handling

  • All tools return errors in the same format
  • Error codes follow consistent scheme
  • Error messages follow consistent tone
  • Retry logic uses consistent strategy

Logging

  • All logs use the same format (JSON structured, text, etc.)
  • Consistent field names across all log entries
  • Consistent log levels (debug, info, warn, error)
  • Consistent PII redaction approach

Calibration Process

  1. Identify the standard: What's the most common pattern in the existing codebase? That's the standard.
  2. List deviations: Find all components that deviate from the standard.
  3. Prioritize: Fix the most impactful deviations first (user-facing > internal).
  4. Apply: Make the changes, ensuring tests still pass.
  5. Document: Update .maestro.md with the established conventions.

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.

calibrate is a skill published in the GitHub repository sharpdeveye/maestro (591 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 27 tokens to every session and 676 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
