A skill for setting and troubleshooting document size limits measured in bytes.

In plain words

Why use it?
It helps prevent documents from exceeding a configured limit and gives ways to split, shorten, or explicitly exclude documents that must remain whole.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: user-invocable in frontmatter. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents); mentions AGENTS.md.

This is vanillagreencom/kendex's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on kendex itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything kendex configures →

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 C, and why

doc-limits scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 21d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/lib/diagnostics.sh, scripts/lib/settings.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Hidden instructionshighPrompt injection

Directives inside HTML comments, invisible characters or bidirectional overrides are read by the model and not by the person reviewing the file.

What it actually says

Project Instructions

Problems with a kendex-owned skill go through kendex report; check ownership in the file first.

Doc Limits

Run the document byte-ceiling check before review and in CI. The commit-guards pre-commit and pre-push chains use the staged mode; at push the index is held equal to HEAD first, so that mode measures the tree being pushed.

.agents/skills/doc-limits/scripts/doc-limits
.agents/skills/doc-limits/scripts/doc-limits --staged

The check measures AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, GEMINI.md and SKILL.md, at the root and at any depth, and no other file. A document over its limit fails the check. references/policy.md § Path classes says how a class sets a ceiling among those files.

A document that must stay whole gets a row in the configured excludes file with its reason. Class selection and the exclusion format are references/policy.md. Flags, settings and exit codes are in doc-limits --help.

Files

What ships with it

5 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
