docent

docent is a skill for Claude Code from TransluceAI/claude-code-plugins. It costs 26 tokens per session (604 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A set of instructions for using Docent, a platform that collects and analyzes AI agent runs and evaluation data.

In plain words
What is it for?
Reviewing agent behavior, importing local logs or evaluation traces, answering questions about runs, and creating analysis plans or evaluation rubrics.
Why use it?
It tells the coding agent which Docent guide to use for analyzing runs, importing logs, writing evaluation rules, or working with the platform through code.

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

docent 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 2mo 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 — 48 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Docent

First-use notice

Before doing anything else, run:

uv tool run --quiet --from 'docent-python>=0.1.83' python -m docent.plugin.logging_config first-run-notice

If it prints a notice, relay it to the user exactly as instructed and then continue. If it prints nothing, continue silently.

Guides

This is the root skill for all Docent work. This file is just a table of contents. In most cases you should read one of the guides below before starting to work with docent. Choose the guide that best matches your task.

  • For exploring a collection of agent runs, analyzing data, answering questions about agent behavior: ./analysis.md
  • For ingestion workflows that convert local logs or eval traces into Docent data: ./ingestion.md
  • If the user is asking to manipulate data in the platform through code or the command line, see the SDK reference.

Other available documentation

  • For analysis-plan markdown notes (universal framework + pattern index): ./readings-reference.md (client.plan_markdown)
  • For writing or revising rubrics, classifier prompts, and their output schemas: ./rubric-writing.md
  • For plan-pattern pipelines and note templates (read one after classifying at Step 2b): ./patterns/
  • For the Readings API (client.read, client.query, batching, prompts, clustering): ./readings-reference.md
  • For DQL syntax, schemas, quirks, and example queries: ./dql-reference.md
  • For the reports API: ./report.md (only if the user explicitly asks for a report)
  • For ingestion-side data-model and conversion examples: ./ingestion-reference.md
  • SDK reference is available by visiting our online documentation

Opening Docent pages

Get the user in front of the relevant Docent page as soon as it exists — a new collection or a freshly submitted analysis plan.

  • In local sessions running on the user's machine (e.g. Claude Code CLI or an IDE extension), the SDK's flush() / webbrowser.open() opens the user's default browser automatically. You can rely on this, but still surface the URL as a clickable link since the user may not notice the tab.
  • In sandboxed sessions where webbrowser.open() cannot reach the user's browser (e.g. Codex CLI), surface the URL as a clickable link instead.

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.
