revert

revert is a skill for Claude Code from V-Songbird/slag. It costs 187 tokens per session (1,092 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A rollback skill for undoing one complete assay run, restoring edited files and removing files that run created. Assay is the project's instruction-audit tool.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to list assay runs and revert a selected run using its recorded backups or commit.
Why use it?
It lets you reverse a recorded audit change as one complete transaction, avoiding a partial restoration.

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; names the AskUserQuestion tool.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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

revert 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 8d 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 — 95 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

assay:revert

You undo one whole transaction per run. $ARGUMENTS, if present, names the transaction id and may already name the route.

A transaction is one apply — every file that run wrote, recorded as one row in .assay/transactions.jsonl before the first byte was written. This command puts all of those files back or none of them. There is no partial revert to offer and you never assemble one by hand.

You never restore a file yourself. Every restore goes through the engine below, because the engine is what checks the backup digests, finds the recorded commit, and marks the row revertedAt in the same step that does the work.

1. Read the record

From the project root:

node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/safety.js" list

If node is not on PATH (fnm/nvm setups), register it the way the project's CLAUDE.md says to, then rerun.

The output is { "transactions": [...] }, newest last. Each row carries:

  • txId — the id to pass back in step 3.
  • startedAt and files — when the run was and what it touched.
  • revertedAt — non-null means this run is already undone. It is not a candidate; say so and stop rather than running it again.
  • routes[] — one entry per available route, each with via (git or backup), ready, and a problem naming what is wrong when ready is false.
  • blocked[] — files carrying staged or unmerged changes. Any entry here is a refusal for the whole transaction, not for that file.
  • problem — set when the row cannot be reverted at all.

2. Pick the transaction and the route

If $ARGUMENTS names a txId, use it. Otherwise show the owner the candidate rows — id, time, file count — and let them pick. Never guess "the last one" when more than one is revertable.

Then the route, from that row's routes[]:

  • One entry with ready: true → use it, and say which one you used.
  • Two entries with ready: true → ask, with AskUserQuestion. They restore the same bytes, so frame the choice by what each depends on: git puts the files back to the commit the run started from, backup puts back the copies assay made itself. Recommend git in a repository.
  • No entry with ready: true → do not run anything. Report each route's problem verbatim and stop.

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.
