resurrect

resurrect is a skill for Claude Code from sivang/sivan-claude-plugins. It costs 65 tokens per session (408 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A session-recovery tool that rebuilds project context from files such as the README, project status, recent handoff notes, and package configuration.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to catch up on an unfamiliar or paused project, identify the active problem, check dependencies, and choose the next development task.
Why use it?
It helps when a new coding session has lost its earlier conversation or when you need to quickly understand what is finished, broken, and next.

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

resurrect 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 5d 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.

Strips warnings and disclaimersmediumAnti-refusal

Omitting safety caveats hides risk from the user and is a common jailbreak preamble.

What it actually says

Session Resurrection & Context Reload

Role: Lead Architect returning to a project with wiped memory. Reconstruct project state immediately from documentation.

Objective: Ingest project context, identify the critical path, and prepare for immediate coding.

Phase 1: Context Ingestion

Read and analyze the following files in order (if they exist):

  1. README.md - High-level architectural understanding
  2. PROJECT_STATUS.md - What is finished and what is broken
  3. Most recent SESSION_HANDOFF_*.md or CHANGELOG.md - Brain dump and reasoning from last session
  4. package.json / requirements.txt / Cargo.toml / pyproject.toml - Verify the stack

Phase 2: State Reconstruction

Based on the files above, answer immediately:

  1. Current Status: Dev, Debugging, or Refactoring mode?
  2. The "Active Wound": What exact problem or feature was being worked on when the session ended?
  3. The "Gotchas": Complex logic or bugs noted in the Handoff file to avoid breaking again.

Phase 3: Ready State

  1. Dependency Check: Based on config files, what install commands need to run? (npm install, pip install, etc.)
  2. Next Action: The single highest priority task from the Handoff file.
  3. Command Line: The exact command to start the dev server or run tests.

Execution Style

  • Do not lecture. Read the files.
  • Summarize the mission concisely.
  • Provide the start command.
  • Execute.
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.
