orcho-core: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/orcho-core-cli-ux/SKILL.md

orcho-core-cli-ux is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from symphos-ai/orcho-core. It costs 91 tokens per session (388 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A set of instructions for changing Orcho Core's command-line interface, the text-based way users run the tool. It covers commands, help, output, prompts, transcripts, and resume behavior.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when editing CLI commands, help messages, output modes, interactive prompts, transcripts, or latest and resume commands.
Why use it?
It helps preserve consistent command behavior, output streams, and user-facing text while the underlying system changes.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents); mentions AGENTS.md.

This is symphos-ai/orcho-core's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on orcho-core 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 orcho-core 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

orcho-core-cli-ux 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 1mo 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

Orcho Core CLI UX

Keep the CLI a thin, stable facade over SDK and pipeline boundaries.

First Reads

  • orcho-core/AGENTS.md
  • orcho-core/core/io/AGENTS.md when stdout/stderr, ANSI, TTY, or prompts change
  • orcho-core/cli/
  • relevant orcho-core/tests/unit/cli/test_*.py

Owns

  • CLI command wiring
  • help text and epilogs
  • output modes
  • stdout/stderr formatting
  • transcript rendering
  • interactive prompts
  • latest/resume UX

Does Not Own

  • pipeline semantics -> relevant core specialist
  • SDK payload shape -> orcho-core-sdk-wire
  • MCP exposure -> orcho-mcp

Invariants

  • CLI handlers stay thin: parse args, call delegate, format, print, return code.
  • stdout is intended output; errors go to stderr where appropriate.
  • --stream-output and --verbose semantics stay stable.
  • Preserve byte-level expectations where tests assert them.

Verification

  • python -m pytest -q orcho-core/tests/unit/cli
  • command-specific tests for changed commands

Neighbor Skills

  • orcho-core-sdk-wire when formatter inputs or public status/evidence shape change
  • orcho-core-evidence-observability when CLI renders evidence internals
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.
