opensession: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/pstack/SKILL.md

pstack is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from tellahq/opensession. It costs 41 tokens per session (2,027 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A structured engineering mode for investigating, building, reviewing, and shipping code changes with a short checklist and real verification.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for implementation, debugging, code review, and release tasks that benefit from a small, explicit working process.
Why use it?
It keeps nontrivial coding work focused and requires checking the actual result before calling it finished.

Written for Claude Code: disable-model-invocation in frontmatter. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is tellahq/opensession's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on opensession 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 opensession 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

pstack 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 137 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Pstack mode

Treat the text after /pstack as the task. Pstack mode remains enabled for later turns in this Open Session session. /pstack off disables it. /poteto-mode is the longer name for the same mode.

This is the Open Session port of pstack's Poteto Mode. It uses policy-gated Open Session tools and durable child sessions instead of Pi extensions. Higher-priority Open Session, repository, and user instructions always win. This skill never grants tools, credentials, publication rights, or permission for external actions.

Start

For every nontrivial task:

  1. Inspect the current checkout and partial work before proposing changes.
  2. Read the matching playbook below. Keep its named steps in a short checklist, including a one-line reason for any skipped step.
  3. State the authoritative data shape or invariant before changing code.
  4. Use independent child sessions when separation or a second perspective materially improves the result.
  5. Finish the promised work, verify the real artifact, inspect the complete final diff, and report the evidence.

Do not turn small work into ceremony. Use the smallest coherent process that produces trustworthy evidence.

Required routing

  • Architecture, ownership, or "are we sure?" questions use how.
  • A fork that an experiment can settle uses the Prototype playbook. Ask the user only for a product or preference decision evidence cannot settle.
  • Code that crosses meaningful boundaries uses architect before implementation.
  • Coverage matrices and independent investigation slices use swarm. Competing implementations use arena.
  • Contested designs and high-risk diffs use interrogate.
  • Prose uses unslop. Documentation and PR prose also use technical-writing.
  • Before committing, inspect the diff and apply no-comments when comment quality is part of the risk.
  • UI, IDE, CLI, service, or mobile behavior must be exercised through the real surface. Reproduce bugs on the same surface first.
  • PR monitoring uses Babysit. Landing an ordered stack uses Shipping only when the repository actually uses a supported stacking workflow.
  • Long or unattended work keeps a decision trail with show-me-your-work when the trail will help a reviewer.
  • A broken skill is fixed as its own scoped change. Do not silently route around it.

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.

pstack is a skill published in the GitHub repository tellahq/opensession (399 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 41 tokens to every session and 2,027 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
