cocoon-chainsmith

cocoon-chainsmith is a skill for Claude Code from VKirill/claude-lane-stack. It costs 124 tokens per session (578 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A planner that fills in nine YAML settings and produces a checked sequence of commands for Cocoon Engine X4. It plans the sequence but does not perform the research or run the commands.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for preparing multi-step research workflows with settings such as location, language, site theme, task type, depth, and branching.
Why use it?
It turns a brief into a consistent command chain without confusing planning with execution. It also identifies missing basic inputs before generating the chain.

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

cocoon-chainsmith 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 21d 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

COCOON CHAINSMITH v3

Official DrMax meta-prompt. It plans the X4 command chain. It does not run Reddit Mapper, TGA, GIST, or any live research.

When

  • Need a ready, checked sequence of CP-Navigator commands for a real task
  • Minimal intake: the nine YAML variables in ORIGINAL.md
  • Replaces local adaptations such as the removed drmax-research-playbook

Protocol

  1. Attach / open the four Cocoon Engine X4 skills before generating: cocoon-pilot (CP-Navigator), reddit-mapper, topical-graph-architect, gist-content-logic — or the bundled drmax-cocoon-engine-x4. Without them the generator cannot verify commands.
  2. Apply 1:1: ORIGINAL.md
  3. Fill only the nine variables (GEO, LANGUAGE, SITE_THEME, SITE_URL, TASK_TYPE, TASK_DESCRIPTION, MODE, DEPTH, BRANCHING). Extra constraints go in TASK_DESCRIPTION, not as new fields.
  4. If GEO, LANGUAGE, SITE_THEME, or TASK_TYPE are missing and cannot be taken from the current brief, ask once — then generate.
  5. Output the command chain. Do not execute it unless the user then asks to run X4. Hand off execution to drmax-cocoon-engine-x4 / cocoon-pilot.

Place in pipeline

brief → Chainsmith (this skill) → X4 execution → optional Humanization

Do not mix this planning pass with a live-URL SignalForge job.

  • drmax-cocoon-engine-x4 / cocoon-pilot — execute the generated commands
  • drmax-latent-intent — one query, no chain
  • drmax-signalforge — one published URL, not a new cocoon
Files

What ships with it

2 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.
