chorus-kilo

chorus-kilo is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from valpere/chorus. It costs 24 tokens per session (135 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A helper that sends a task to Kilo Code, a separate coding-agent command-line tool, for a maintainability-focused second opinion or alternative analysis.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when you explicitly want Kilo Code to review a task, suggest an alternative, or answer what Kilo would say.
Why use it?
It lets you compare your main agent's thinking with another agent's view of how readable and maintainable the solution is.

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

chorus-kilo 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 4d 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

Chorus: Delegate to Kilo

When to use

  • User explicitly asks to delegate to Kilo
  • User wants Kilo's maintainability-focused perspective
  • User asks "what would Kilo say?" or similar

Invocation

kilo run --auto "<task>"

The --auto flag runs Kilo in non-interactive mode, auto-approving all permission prompts.

Output handling

Return Kilo's output verbatim — no paraphrasing, no summaries.

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.
