hook-context-attachment-injection

hook-context-attachment-injection is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ychampion/cskill-agents. It costs 26 tokens per session (319 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A way to pass information collected by startup hooks to a newly created child agent. The information is attached as metadata before the child makes its first request.

In plain words
What is it for?
Seeding spawned agents with deterministic startup context from hooks before their first model call.
Why use it?
The child can start with repository hints or policy notes without pretending they came from the user or changing the parent agent's conversation.

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

hook-context-attachment-injection 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 6d 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

SKILL: Hook Context Attachment Injection

Domain: multi-agent Trigger: Use when startup hooks generate extra context that a child agent should see before it makes its first model request. Source Pattern: Distilled from reviewed startup-hook context seeding flows.

Core Method

Collect any hook-provided context while the child agent is starting, combine it into a structured metadata attachment, and inject that attachment into the initial conversation state before the query loop begins. This lets startup hooks enrich the child agent without mutating shared parent state or pretending the hook output came from the user. Keeping the payload as metadata preserves provenance and keeps the startup context easy to reason about.

Key Rules

  • Gather hook output before the first request so the initial reasoning step sees the same context as later logging and transcript paths.
  • Package hook output as metadata attachments, not as synthetic user or assistant text.
  • Keep attachment construction deterministic so retries and resumes produce the same startup context.

Example Application

If a startup hook gathers repository hints and policy notes for a spawned coding agent, inject them as one metadata attachment before the child begins planning.

Anti-Patterns (What NOT to do)

  • Do not append startup hook context after the first model turn.
  • Do not mix hook metadata into user-authored content.
  • Do not mutate shared parent conversation state just to deliver child-specific startup hints.

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.
