diagnose

diagnose is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from xiaolai/cc-suite. It costs 42 tokens per session (924 once invoked), scanned A, original, ISC.

A diagnostic skill for checking and repairing the cc-suite setup in the current project.

In plain words
What is it for?
Running the project's full cc-suite health check and automatically fixing issues covered by its diagnostic engine.
Why use it?
It finds missing or outdated bridge files and explains setup problems that can make related skills behave unexpectedly.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for Claude Code and Codex: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT variable, but also agents/openai.yaml present. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions Claude Code; mentions Codex.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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

diagnose 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 7d 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 — 65 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Diagnose

Run the structured diagnostic engine and act on its report. Skill counterpart to /cc-suite:diagnose — both are thin wrappers around the same engine, scripts/diagnose.py, which owns every check, its classification, and its repair mapping. Do not re-implement checks here.

When to Use

  • At the start of a session when bridge artifacts may be missing or stale
  • After updating cc-suite to confirm the new version is wired as expected
  • When $audit, $audit-fix, or any $claude-* skill behaves unexpectedly

Workflow

Step 0: Resolve the plugin root

CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT is set by Claude Code only — in a Codex or Antigravity session it is unset. Resolve the root from the bridged skills symlink (it points at <plugin-root>/skills/cc-suite):

PLUGIN_ROOT="${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT:-$(dirname "$(dirname "$(readlink -f .claude/skills/cc-suite 2>/dev/null)")")}"
[ -d "${PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts" ] || echo "! cannot resolve the cc-suite plugin root — run /cc-suite:bridge-skills from Claude Code first, or export CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT"

Stop if it could not be resolved.

Step 1: Run the engine

python3 "${PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/diagnose.py" --json

The JSON: enabled_tools, checks[] (id, label, status, detail, fix{auto[], manual, restart_required}), summary. Statuses: healthy / issue (fixable) / info / expected_absent / manual / skipped. The engine honors the Enabled Tools selection — a deselected tool's absent artifacts are expected_absent, never issues. Add --boot-test for the network-dependent claude-octopus handshake (tests the version actually registered in .codex/config.toml) when delegation misbehaves.

Step 2: Report

Render the buckets in order — Issues, Manual action needed, Information, Healthy, Expected absent/Skipped — emitting Information even on the no-issues path. If there are no issues and nothing manual: report healthy and stop.

Step 3: Fix

Ask: "Fix all auto-fixable issues now? (yes / show commands only / cancel)". If yes, for each issue check run its fix.auto commands in order; a non-zero exit is reported verbatim and that check is NOT counted as fixed. The model_pin fix is an edit, not a command: rewrite the - **Default model**: line in .cc-suite.md to latest and touch nothing else. fix.manual and manual-status items go to the user's to-do list untouched.

What ships with it

1 file 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.

diagnose is a skill published in the GitHub repository xiaolai/cc-suite (44 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed ISC. It adds 42 tokens to every session and 924 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.
