cherrypick: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/context-budget/SKILL.md

context-budget is a skill for Claude Code from yojo-art/cherrypick. It costs 108 tokens per session (2,125 once invoked), scanned A, original, AGPL-3.0.

A context-audit tool for Claude Code sessions that shows how much of the available conversation space is used by agents, skills, MCP tools, rules, and CLAUDE.md files. It also identifies oversized or repetitive parts.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect token usage, investigate context limits, and find large or redundant configuration files and components.
Why use it?
Long instructions and connected tools consume space that could otherwise hold your code and task details. Seeing the breakdown helps you find material that can be shortened or removed.

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

context-budget 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 yesterday.

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 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.
