About headroom

headroom You're deep in a session. Claude starts dropping earlier context. Compaction fires mid-turn and takes work in progress with it. You had no warning. Claude Code gives you nothing on context usage. headroom fixes that. A live bar in your statusline, updated after every tool call. Now you can see the window filling up.

How this security grade is produced

Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy: 42 published rules, covering credential harvesting, data exfiltration, curl | sh installers and more. 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.
