read-event-type

A tool for viewing the details of one event type in EventSourcingDB, a database that records changes as events.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect an event type, see whether it has a schema, and check its stored details.
Why use it?
It removes the need to construct the database request manually when checking an event type and its schema.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

read-event-type scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 2d 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.

What it actually says

Read Event Type

Get details about a single event type from an EventSourcingDB instance.

Shared Instructions

First read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/shared/common.md. It explains how to determine the base URL and API token, how to handle NDJSON responses, and which conventions apply. Follow it throughout this skill.

Request

curl -s -i -X POST \
  -H "authorization: Bearer ${ESDB_API_TOKEN}" \
  -H "content-type: application/json" \
  -d '<REQUEST_BODY>' \
  "${ESDB_URL:-http://localhost:3000}/api/v1/read-event-type"

Request Body

{
  "eventType": "<reverse.domain.event-type>"
}

Example

curl -s -i -X POST \
  -H "authorization: Bearer ${ESDB_API_TOKEN}" \
  -H "content-type: application/json" \
  -d '{"eventType": "io.eventsourcingdb.library.book-acquired"}' \
  "${ESDB_URL:-http://localhost:3000}/api/v1/read-event-type"

Response

JSON object:

{
  "eventType": "io.eventsourcingdb.library.book-acquired",
  "isPhantom": false,
  "schema": { ... }
}
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.

read-event-type is a skill published in the GitHub repository thenativeweb/claude-plugins (6 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 43 tokens to every session and 345 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
