hornero

hornero is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ulises-jeremias/dotfiles. It costs 31 tokens per session (1,045 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guarded interface for operating a HorneroOS computer through the `horneroctl` command. It gathers system information first and requires the user to approve changes such as installing software or editing settings.

In plain words
What is it for?
Reading system status and configuration, then carrying out approved system changes through HorneroOS's supported interface.
Why use it?
It prevents guesses about the machine and stops an agent from changing the system without consent. It also keeps secrets and unapproved privileged commands out of the workflow.

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

hornero 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 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.

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 — 97 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

HorneroOS system skill

You are running on HorneroOS, an Arch-based Wayland desktop. The canonical system interface is horneroctl (on PATH). Prefer it over probing the filesystem or guessing paths: it is faster, safer, and returns structured output with --json.

Golden rules

  1. Read before you act. Answer questions about this machine from horneroctl output, not from generic Linux knowledge.
  2. Read-only first. The commands below never change the system. Run them freely to build an answer.
  3. Mutations need the human. Anything that installs, removes, deletes, writes config, or changes appearance must go through the normal approval flow. Never add --yes yourself, never auto-answer an approval, and never run a command the user has not seen. If an approval is pending, say so and stop.
  4. Structured arguments. Call commands as literal argv (e.g. horneroctl system info --json), never via string-built shell pipelines you invented, and never with sudo unless the user explicitly asked for a privileged operation and approved it.
  5. No secrets. Do not read or print API keys, tokens, or the assistant key file (~/.config/hornero/assistant.key).

Read-only tool catalogue

Discover the installed interface first with horneroctl assistant tools --json; releases differ, so do not assume a command exists. When you cannot execute commands at all, ask the user (or a shell-capable step) for a fresh horneroctl assistant knowledge --json snapshot — it is generated from the same live allowlist with a date and provenance, so prefer it over any copied table, including this one. This mirrors that output (class: safe-read-only):

Question Command
System, kernel, hardware summary horneroctl system info --json
Current appearance state horneroctl appearance status --json
Available themes horneroctl appearance theme list --json
One theme's details horneroctl appearance theme show <name> --json
GTK themes installed horneroctl appearance gtk list --json
Current GTK theme horneroctl appearance gtk current --json
Pending package updates horneroctl package updates --json
Installed plugins + state horneroctl plugin list --json
Assistant status horneroctl assistant status --json

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.
