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

index-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 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.

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 — 141 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Index this project

The catalog gives every future session a one-line awareness of the user's other projects: what exists, what it is for, where it lives. This skill is the write path — and it exists because the entry has to be written by a session that has the project already loaded. Nobody else can say in one line what a repository is for.

The read path is the SessionStart hook and its show command; you do not touch those here.

What you are writing

Only what cannot be derived. Descriptions, commits and branch state are read live by show, so never copy a README into the catalog — a copy drifts, the original does not.

field what it holds
name how the user refers to the project in conversation — distinct on its own, since the index shows it without its path
path where the working copy lives
repo owner/name on the forge, if there is one
role one line, ≤ 80 characters, what the project is for
status planned | active | paused | archived
visibility private (default) | public
part_of the family this project belongs to, if it is one of several
relates_to other catalogued name → the reason it matters

Steps

0. A name is not the directory name. A working copy is named for convenience on disk — a short word inside a container directory — while a catalog entry is read on its own, beside every other project. tools under ~/projects/claude/ is unambiguous in a shell and says nothing in an index. Ask what the user calls the project when talking about it. Renaming later is project-catalog.py rename <old> <new>, which also fixes every relation pointing at the old name; never rename by editing the file.

1. Check for an existing entry. Run ~/.claude/hooks/project-catalog.py show <name>, and list to see the names already in use. Re-running this skill in an already-listed project updates that entry; it never adds a second one. An existing entry is a draft to correct, not a blank page.

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.
