develop-synergy

develop-synergy is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from SII-Holos/synergy. It costs 64 tokens per session (6,060 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for developing and testing Synergy from source in a separate runtime. It uses an isolated data directory and separate ports so the active Synergy installation keeps running safely.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for source development, end-to-end tests, alternate branches or worktrees, local web or desktop runs, managed Desktop testing, and diagnosing port or isolated-environment issues.
Why use it?
It prevents development builds, test sessions, locks, and configuration changes from interfering with the running application. It also provides rules for copying only the configuration and test data that an isolated environment needs.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is bun apps/web/test/fixtures/workbench/provider.ts "$DEV_HOME" http://127.0.0.1:4097 4098.

Good fit Use it for source development, end-to-end tests, alternate branches or worktrees, local web or desktop runs, managed Desktop testing, and diagnosing port or isolated-environment issues.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

    Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.
    Fix: Remove any persistence mechanisms (cron jobs, startup scripts, state files). Skills should not maintain state across sessions without explicit user consent.

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

develop-synergy 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 yesterday.

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.

Develop Synergy Safely

Protect the Active Runtime

Never stop, restart, signal, or reuse the SYNERGY_HOME of the Synergy instance carrying the current task. Do not run synergy stop, broad kill/pkill, or modify its data/lock files.

For startup or migration changes, seed an isolated installed database with cold Sessions and operations before timing readiness. Run bun test test/lifecycle/history-startup.test.ts from Harness, then the affected page/recovery tests. Report Harness preparation separately from HTTP/UI readiness and actual bytes read separately from logical dataset size; never use the live Home as a performance fixture. Follow the experience measurement rules; exercise an old Session’s readable body and interactive composer after readiness, plus new Session and worktree creation under the same historical load.

Read Development reference before choosing a mode. Compare the injected synergy-runtime identity with the Session Workspace before choosing a Home, port or restart target. The host source checkout/revision describes the running backend, not necessarily the files being edited; --attach does not change backend ownership. Verify identity through an isolated model request rather than inferring it from a window title or the default port.

Check both bun --version and the executable selected by the current version manager against package.json. Invoke the pinned runtime with its directory on PATH so nested package scripts also use it; selecting an absolute parent executable alone does not pin bun commands inside those scripts. bun dev rejects incompatible parent or BUN_BIN runtimes before preparation or startup. Do not treat dependency installation as a runtime upgrade, and do not restart a shared running instance to apply a version change.

Prepare an Isolated Home

  1. Choose a dedicated parent directory and explicit free ports. Check listeners with lsof -nP -iTCP -sTCP:LISTEN or the platform equivalent; do not assume 4097 and 3001 are free.
  2. Create the required .synergy parent:

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.
