catch-up

catch-up is a skill for Claude Code from TheWinci/mimirs. It costs 61 tokens per session (259 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A workflow for catching up on a software project's current state before continuing work. It reviews recent changes, unfinished work, decisions, known caveats, and earlier discussions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Checking modified files and recent commits, finding project checkpoints and notes, reviewing annotations, and producing a concise status before resuming development.
Why use it?
It reduces the chance of repeating completed work or breaking an earlier decision when returning to a repository after a pause.

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

catch-up 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 7d 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

Catch-up

Goal: rebuild context on the current state — not the whole codebase (that's explore).

  1. What's changedgit_context for modified/uncommitted files, recent commits, and which changed files are in the index.
  2. Recent decisionslist_checkpoints for the latest checkpoints; search_checkpoints "<area you're resuming>" for ones relevant to the task.
  3. Open caveatsget_annotations on the changed files for known bugs, constraints, or "don't touch until X" notes left earlier.
  4. Prior discussionsearch_conversation "<task/area>" to recall what was being worked on and any unresolved threads.

Finish: a short status — what changed, what's in flight, decisions/caveats affecting the next step — with file:line and checkpoint references. Confirm the plan before continuing.

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.
