pod-init is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Snowflake-Labs/cocoplus. It costs 57 tokens per session (3,965 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A project initializer that creates the CocoPlus files and folders needed to manage a project, including its plan, workflow, memory, and configuration.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it once in a Git repository to create the project bundle and initial project files.
Why use it?
It gives later CocoPlus commands the project structure they require and records the initial setup in Git.

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

pod-init scanned grade A 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 2d 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.

Runs shell commandslowCapability

Expected in a hook, worth knowing in a rule or an instructions file.

- Prefer `spawnSync('git', ['rev-parse', '--git-dir'])` or the host tool's native argument array.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 479 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Your objective is to initialize the CocoPlus project bundle in the current working directory.

Pre-flight Check

  1. Check if .cocoplus/ already exists in the current directory.
    • If it does: output "CocoPlus is already initialized in this directory. Use $pod status to check current state or $pod resume to restore context." Then stop.
  2. Check that a git repository exists using a shell-safe argument call equivalent to git rev-parse --git-dir.
    • Prefer spawnSync('git', ['rev-parse', '--git-dir']) or the host tool's native argument array.
    • Do not wrap this in PowerShell-specific parsing or string interpolation.
    • If not: offer "Git not detected. Initialize? (yes/no)"
    • If yes: run git init and continue.
    • If no: stop.

Create Directory Structure

Create the following directories (create them even if empty — they are required by other skills):

.cocoplus/
.cocoplus/lifecycle/
.cocoplus/memory/
.cocoplus/prompts/
.cocoplus/monitors/
.cocoplus/brew/

.cocoplus/sentinel/

Copy Template Files

Copy template files from the plugin templates directory to .cocoplus/:

  1. Copy templates/AGENTS.md.template.cocoplus/AGENTS.md

    • Replace {{TIMESTAMP}} with current ISO 8601 timestamp
    • Replace {{SESSION_ID}} with a generated session ID (format: sess-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS)
  2. Copy templates/project.md.template.cocoplus/project.md

    • Replace {{TIMESTAMP}} with current ISO 8601 timestamp
    • Prompt the developer: "What is this project called?" Replace {{PROJECT_NAME}}.
    • Prompt: "Briefly describe the project (one sentence):" Replace {{PROJECT_DESCRIPTION}}.
    • Prompt: "What is the primary goal?" Replace {{PROJECT_GOAL}}.
    • Replace {{OWNER}} with git user name (git config user.name).

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.
