egboot

egboot is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from SoliEstre/EstreGenesis. It costs 55 tokens per session (143 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A shortcut for setting up a new project with the EstreGenesis standard, a shared set of instructions for coding agents.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when starting a new project that has not yet been configured for EstreGenesis.
Why use it?
It avoids repeating the full setup command and points to the procedure for choosing and installing the right instruction set.

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

egboot 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 6d 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

/egboot → /eg-bootstrap

Alias. The procedure lives in one place and this is not a copy of it.

Read the sibling skill ../eg-bootstrap/SKILL.md (relative to this skill's base directory) and execute it as written. Everything — the new-vs-existing guard, the tier table, the seed URLs, the module hand-off — is there.

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.
