project

project is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from victoriacity/openakari. It costs 32 tokens per session (2,733 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for creating research projects in two ways: proposing an investigation from gaps found in a repository, or setting up a project after a person describes what they need.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to scan for research gaps and write proposals, or interview a requester and create the files and directory structure for a new research project.
Why use it?
It separates evidence-based research proposals from requested project setup, so each starts with the appropriate level of review and planning.

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

project 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.

/project [argument]

Unified skill for creating new research projects. Two modes:

  • /project propose [topic] — Agent-initiated. Scans the repo for research gaps, assesses whether a gap warrants a project, and writes a formal proposal for PI review. Proposals require approval to activate. If topic is omitted, scans for candidate gaps first.

  • /project scaffold <description> — Human-initiated. Interactive interview to understand what the human wants, then scaffolds the project directory with all required files. No approval needed — the human requesting it has authority.

When to use which mode:

  • You identified a research gap and want to propose an investigation → propose
  • A human asked you to set up a new project → scaffold

Mode: propose

Agent-initiated project proposal. All inputs are repo-resident (experiment findings, open questions, literature gaps, operational patterns).

Principles

  1. Ground in evidence, not speculation. Every claim about a gap must cite a specific source: an experiment finding, an operational pattern, a literature gap, an open question.

  2. Research questions over implementation requests. A proposal must center on a question that produces knowledge when answered. "Build a dashboard" is not a project — "Does real-time visualization reduce PI intervention rate?" is.

  3. Proportionate scope. Prefer focused investigations over broad surveys. A project that answers one specific question well is more valuable than one that vaguely addresses five.

  4. Explicit uncertainty. State what you don't know. If feasibility depends on an untested assumption, propose a pilot step.

Step 1: Identify candidate gaps

If a topic was provided, skip to Step 2. Otherwise, scan these sources:

  1. Open questions — Read ## Open questions sections in all active project READMEs. Look for questions not addressed by existing experiments.
  2. Experiment recommendations — Scan completed EXPERIMENT.md files for unactioned recommendations (Recommendations, Proposed solutions, Next steps) beyond current project scope.
  3. Cross-session patterns — Check .scheduler/metrics/sessions.jsonl for recurring operational issues.
  4. Literature gaps — Check literature/synthesis.md files for gaps between existing literature and current questions.
  5. Roadmap gaps — Read docs/roadmap.md and projects/akari/plans/long-term-roadmap.md for capability gaps.

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.

project is a skill published in the GitHub repository victoriacity/openakari (47 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 32 tokens to every session and 2,733 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
