Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

SkillSpector: 4 findings, up to high
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →
- high Supply Chain · line 179 Remote code is downloaded and executed. This bypasses code review and could introduce malicious code.Fix: Avoid downloading and executing remote scripts. Use trusted packages from PyPI/npm. If remote fetch is required, verify checksums and use HTTPS.
- medium Rogue Agent · line 11 Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.Fix: Remove any persistence mechanisms (cron jobs, startup scripts, state files). Skills should not maintain state across sessions without explicit user consent.
- medium Excessive Agency · line 51 Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.Fix: Add human-in-the-loop confirmation for destructive, irreversible, or high-impact operations. Never auto-execute commands that modify files, send data, or alter system state.
- medium Data Exfiltration · line 179 Data is being sent to an external URL. This could be legitimate telemetry or data exfiltration. Manual review is recommended.Fix: Verify the destination URL is trusted and necessary. Remove or replace with documented APIs. Ensure no secrets, tokens, or PII are transmitted.
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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00056 | $0.02279 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00028 | $0.01140 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00011 | $0.00456 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00228 |
Grade A, and why
claude-md-generator scanned grade A 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 9d 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.

curl -s -X POST \ How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 255 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
CLAUDE.md Generator
Read the codebase. Write a CLAUDE.md that tells Claude exactly what it needs: no more, no less.
Critical rule: A good CLAUDE.md is under 100 lines. It contains only information Claude cannot derive from reading the code itself. Do not auto-write the file: always show the draft and wait for user approval first.
Code snippet rule: Never include inline code examples in CLAUDE.md. Instead use file.ts:42 references. Code in CLAUDE.md wastes tokens and goes stale.
Step 1: Detect Mode
Determine which of three modes to run:
create: No CLAUDE.md exists. Write one from scratch. update: A CLAUDE.md exists. Improve it without discarding custom content. audit: Score all CLAUDE.md files in the project A-F and output a quality report. If the user says "audit", "check", "review", or "grade" my CLAUDE.md, run audit mode.
# Discover ALL CLAUDE.md locations
find . -name "CLAUDE.md" -not -path "*/node_modules/*" -not -path "*/.git/*" 2>/dev/null
ls ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md 2>/dev/null && echo "Global CLAUDE.md found"
ls .claude.local.md 2>/dev/null && echo ".claude.local.md found"
If multiple CLAUDE.md files are found: list them. Ask: "Found CLAUDE.md in [locations]. Should I update all of them or just [root]?"
Step 2: Audit Mode (skip to Step 3 if create/update)
For each CLAUDE.md found, score it A-F using this rubric:
| Criterion | What to check |
|---|---|
| Commands | Build/test/lint commands present and runnable? |
| Architecture | Non-obvious structure explained? |
| Non-obvious patterns | Gotchas, generated files, env var order documented? |
| Conciseness | Under 100 lines? No obvious filler? |
| Currency | Commands still match current package.json/Makefile? |
| Actionability | Can a new contributor follow this without asking questions? |
Score: 90-100 = A, 70-89 = B, 50-69 = C, 30-49 = D, 0-29 = F
Present as a table:
## CLAUDE.md Audit Report
| File | Score | Grade | Top Issues |
|------|-------|-------|-----------|
| ./CLAUDE.md | 72 | B | Missing gotchas section, test command outdated |
| ./packages/api/CLAUDE.md | 45 | D | No commands, 340 lines (too long), stale arch notes |
**Overall: B (72/100)**
Issues found:
- ./packages/api/CLAUDE.md: 340 lines: well over the 100-line target
- ./packages/api/CLAUDE.md: Test command references `jest` but package.json uses `vitest`
- ./CLAUDE.md: No Gotchas section: most valuable section is missing
What ships with it
4 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.
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.
- 9d ago First seen · 255 lines · 56 tokens per session scan A 3a89ecf14ce4
claude-md-generator is a skill published in the GitHub repository Varnan-Tech/opendirectory (635 stars, last pushed 23d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 56 tokens to every session and 2,279 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.

Also use this when he asks you to find options — search/discover candidates, then vet the best ones. The goal is not a generic buying guide; it is a practical risk read with clear next steps.
