briefloop: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/brief-onboarding/SKILL.md

brief-onboarding is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Stahl-G/briefloop. It costs 49 tokens per session (400 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A chat-based intake process for collecting the information needed to start a BriefLoop workspace and saving it as onboarding.json.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before creating a workspace when the project requirements are not yet defined, then initialize BriefLoop from the generated onboarding file.
Why use it?
It replaces manual configuration with plain-language questions about the company, topic, audience, language, schedule, sources, and output format.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions subagents; mentions Claude Code.

This is Stahl-G/briefloop's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on briefloop itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything briefloop configures →

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

brief-onboarding 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 7d 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

Brief Onboarding Skill Contract

Scope

This is a runtime skill contract. It describes the capability and artifact contract for this role.

It is not the platform-specific subagent definition. Claude Code subagents live in .claude/agents/; OpenCode subagents live in .opencode/agents/; Codex custom agents live in .codex/agents/; Hermes child tasks are created through delegate_task.

Purpose

Capture business requirements from chat answers to initialize, configure, and start a real brief workspace.

Use When

Use before workspace creation when company, topic, audience, language, cadence, source preference, or output style are not yet defined.

Inputs

  • user answers in natural language
  • optional existing onboarding.json for review

Outputs

  • onboarding.json

Work

Human terminal path

Run briefloop onboard for an interactive terminal wizard.

Agent runtime path (chat-to-JSON)

  1. Collect brief profile in chat — ask for company, industry, task objective, audience, language, cadence, source style, output style, must-watch topics, excluded sources, and source/search mode. Accept natural-language answers and confirm defaults.
  2. Write onboarding.json in the schema expected by briefloop init --from-onboarding.
  3. Validate with briefloop onboard --validate onboarding.json.
  4. Optionally generate a template with briefloop onboard --template.

Handoff

Run briefloop init <workspace> --from-onboarding onboarding.json, then run briefloop run --workspace <workspace> --runtime <canonical-runtime>. Dedicated adapters provide their fixed runtime identity; generic CLI users must choose explicitly.

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.
