update

update is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from vedantggwp/grimoire. It costs 96 tokens per session (3,774 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A skill that updates an existing Grimoire, an AI-maintained wiki, with newly found material, connections between articles, and stale-content checks. It produces a reviewable digest and pull request.

In plain words
What is it for?
For scheduled or automated wiki maintenance, including finding new sources, adding approved content, detecting outdated articles, and recording decisions in a digest.
Why use it?
It keeps the wiki current without requiring someone to approve every automated step; decisions come from a written policy and changes remain subject to pull-request review.

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

update 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 3d 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 — 318 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

update

The scheduled editorial pass. Find what's new since the last run, ingest the best of it under policy, mine new connections between existing articles, detect staleness, and ship everything as a reviewable digest + pull request.

This is the "maintained" half of the LLM-maintained wiki: run builds a grimoire, update keeps it alive.

Headless contract (read first)

NEVER use AskUserQuestion in this skill. Never pause for approval.

This skill is invoked by schedulers (GitHub Actions cron, local cron) where no human can answer. The policy file _config/update.md is the substitute for human judgment; PR review is the substitute for taste checkpoints. On any ambiguity, choose the conservative option and record the decision in the digest's "Attention Needed" section. All progress is communicated through printed status lines and the digest — never through questions.

The two principles that survive automation:

  1. The human stays in control — control relocates from blocking checkpoints to (a) the authored policy and (b) async PR review. The engine never commits to the default branch.
  2. Plain text is the interface — every decision this skill makes is visible in the digest, the PR diff, and the policy file.

Prerequisites

  • An existing grimoire workspace (SCHEMA.md present). If missing, print an error directing the user to /grimoire:newnever scaffold from here.
  • The plugin's compiled runtime: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/dist/compile.js (and dist/present.js when a site exists).

Flags

Parsed from natural language, like run:

Flag Behavior
--dry-run Full analysis, zero writes: no raw/ files, no wiki edits, no source-file changes, no git operations. Derived .compile/ artifacts may regenerate (they're gitignored). Digest printed to stdout with a DRY RUN banner instead of written to _updates/.
--workspace <path> Workspace root when not the current directory.
--setup Install the scheduling adapter instead of running an update — see Step 12.

Files

What ships with it

3 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.
