The file got too big for the agent to follow, and it goes stale every time the code changes. aspens replaces the monolith with scoped skill files (35 lines each) generated from your actual import graph. Each skill activates only when the agent touches that part of the codebase. A post-commit hook keeps them in sync automatically. The agent reads 35 focused lines instead of 200 sprawling ones, and actually follows them. Works with Claude Code, Codex, or both.

Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy, covering 11 red-flag categories including credential harvesting, data exfiltration, and curl | sh installers. It is a first-layer scan, not a manual audit — we say so rather than overstate it.
The scale of the problem is documented independently: Liu et al. (2026), in a study of 31,132 agent skills, report that 26.1% contain security vulnerabilities. Our own full-catalog census is published as a citable open dataset.
