vendor-switch

vendor-switch is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from strale-io/strale. It costs 82 tokens per session (1,578 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A checklist for replacing one outside service provider with another, especially for compliance or payments features. It checks both the working code and written references to the provider.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when switching vendors for sanctions checks, identity or business checks, payments, embeddings, logging, browser automation, or similar services.
Why use it?
Changing a provider can leave old names in documentation, legal text, guides, or configuration even after the software has moved on.

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

vendor-switch 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 4d 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.

/vendor-switch — replace an upstream vendor without leaving copy ghosts

Vendor switches are the highest-drift operation we perform. The platform silently keeps working on the new vendor while the methodology page, learn guides, learnGuides.ts, ToS, llms.txt, and any vendor-named copy still cite the old one — for as long as nobody notices. The 2026-04-30 cert audit found "OpenSanctions" cited 3 days after the move to Dilisense; the buyer-facing methodology page lied first.

This skill is the closing checklist. Run it BEFORE you push the vendor-switch PR, not after.

When this skill applies

Triggered by any of:

  • The user says "we're switching from X to Y" (sanctions, PEP, adverse media, UBO, KYB, payments-card, payments-x402, embeddings, headless browser, log sink, risk-narrative LLM).
  • A pull request title contains "drop", "switch", "migrate from X to Y" on a compliance / payments / log-sink capability.
  • A new DEC entry is being drafted that supersedes a prior vendor-choice decision.

Step 1 — Verify the executor really uses the new vendor

# For sanctions/PEP/adverse-media style caps:
grep -rE "(api\\.|baseURL|client\\.)" apps/api/src/capabilities/<slug>.ts

Read the executor file. Confirm the new vendor's API URL appears and the old vendor's URL doesn't. If the executor has a fallback (e.g. Serper fallback for adverse-media), document that explicitly — the marketing copy must mention both primary AND fallback.

If the old vendor's code path is still callable, STOP. Either delete it or wrap it behind a feature flag with a documented sunset date.

Step 2 — Update STATIC_FACTS.vendors

apps/api/src/lib/platform-facts.ts — the canonical map. Update the vendors field under STATIC_FACTS. Run the unit test:

cd apps/api && npx vitest run src/lib/platform-facts.test.ts

The test pins vendors.sanctions === "Dilisense" (or whatever the current vendor is). Update the test in lockstep — that's the gate that catches accidental reversions.

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.
