work-context

work-context is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from StringKe/dotfiles. It costs 104 tokens per session (1,659 once invoked), scanned A, original, no licence file.

A set of procedures and templates for managing long coding tasks. It covers restating goals, breaking work into parts, checking progress, recording state between sessions, and handing work to another session or agent.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for tasks expected to take more than about half an hour, unattended work, multi-part work, context recovery, or handoffs.
Why use it?
It reduces lost requirements and unclear progress during work that spans multiple modules, repositories, or sessions. A state file provides a written record when the conversation context is shortened or work is paused.

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

work-context 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.

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.
