How it fires

How this skill gets triggered: by you, by Claude, or both.

  • Fires itselfAuto-invocation. Claude auto-loads it when your prompt matches the work.Auto-invocation is when the right skill fires by itself at the right moment, driven by a FLOW.md router and a hook, instead of you invoking it by name. It is the difference between a skill being installed and a skill actually getting used.Read the full definition →

Fleet Auditor: Cross-Platform Agent Token Waste Auditor

> **Never recommend cutting our own tools (issue #111).** When recommending fixes, NEVER suggest removing, archiving, trimming, disabling, or consolidating Token Optimizer's own skills — `token-optimizer`, `token-coach`, `token-dashboard`, `fleet-auditor`. They are the measurement layer; telling the user to delete them to "save ~200 tokens" is self-defeating. Exclude them from every unused-skill / archive / consolidation suggestion.

Detects installed agent systems, collects token usage data, identifies waste patterns, and recommends fixes with dollar savings estimates. Everyone tracks. Nobody coaches. Until now.

**Use when**: Running multiple agent systems, spending $2-5/day on agents, suspecting idle heartbeats are burning tokens, or want a cross-system cost audit.

Phase 0: Initialize

1. **Resolve runtime and fleet.py path** (works for both skill and plugin installs):

RUNTIME="${TOKEN_OPTIMIZER_RUNTIME:-}"
if [ -z "$RUNTIME" ]; then
  if [ -n "$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT" ] || [ -n "$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA" ]; then
    RUNTIME="claude"
  elif [ -n "$OPENCODE" ] || [ -n "$OPENCODE_BIN" ] || [ -n "$OPENCODE_CONFIG_DIR" ] || [ -n "$OPENCODE_CONFIG" ]; then
    RUNTIME="opencode"
  elif [ -n "$CODEX_HOME" ]; then
    RUNTIME="codex"
  elif [ -n "$CLAUDECODE" ] || [ -n "$CLAUDE_CODE_ENTRYPOINT" ] || [ -n "$CLAUDE_CODE_SESSION_ID" ]; then
    RUNTIME="claude"
  elif [ -d "$HOME/.config/opencode" ] && [ ! -d "$HOME/.codex" ]; then
    RUNTIME="opencode"
  elif [ -d "$HOME/.codex" ]; then
    RUNTIME="codex"
  else
    RUNTIME="claude"
  fi
fi

# Resolve fleet.py to the NEWEST installed copy across channels so a stale
# plugin-cache copy never shadows a fresh install (issue #57). find -L follows the
# install.sh symlink under ~/.claude/skills; cd -P resolves it before reading each
# copy's plugin.json for its version. find (not bare globs) never errors under zsh.
FLEET_PY=""; _best_ver=""
while IFS= read -r _cand; do
  [ -f "$_cand" ] || continue
  _root="$(cd -P -- "$(dirname -- "$_cand")/../../.." 2>/dev/null && pwd)"
  _ver="$(sed -n 's/.*"version"[[:space:]]*:[[:space:]]*"\([^"]*\)".*/\1/p' "$_root/.claude-plugin/plugin.json" 2>/dev/null | head -1)"
  [ -n "$_ver" ] || _ver="0.0.0"
  if [ -z "$_best_ver" ] || [ "$(printf '%s\n%s\n' "$_ver" "$_best_ver" | sort -t. -k1,1n -k2,2n -k3,3n -k4,4n | tail -n1)" = "$_ver" ]; then
    _best_ver="$_ver"; FLEET_PY="$_cand"
  fi
done <<EOF
$(find -L "$HOME/.claude/skills" "$HOME/.claude/plugins/cache" "$HOME/.claude/token-optimizer" "$HOME/.codex/skills" "$HOME/.codex/plugins/cache" "$HOME/.config/opencode/plugins/cache" "$HOME/.config/opencode/plugins" -type f -name fleet.py -path '*fleet-auditor*/scripts/fleet.py' 2>/dev/null)
EOF
if [ -z "$FLEET_PY" ]; then echo "[Error] fleet.py not found. Is Fleet Auditor installed?"; exit 1; fi
echo "Using: $FLEET_PY"
export TOKEN_OPTIMIZER_RUNTIME="$RUNTIME"

Use `$FLEET_PY` for all subsequent fleet.py calls.

2. **Detect systems**:

python3 "$FLEET_PY" detect --json

Parse the JSON output. Report what was found.

If nothing detected, explain: "No agent systems found. Fleet Auditor supports: Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw, NanoClaw, Hermes, OpenCode, IronClaw."

---

Phase 1: Scan

Collect token usage data from detected systems:

python3 "$FLEET_PY" scan --days 30

Report how many runs were collected per system. If this is the first scan, it may take a moment to parse all session files.

---

Phase 2: Audit

Run waste pattern detection:

python3 "$FLEET_PY" audit --json

Parse the JSON output. Present findings ordered by severity and monthly savings.

If no waste found: "Your fleet looks clean. No significant waste patterns detected."

For Codex findings, be careful with dollars: if a model's pricing is not in the local pricing table, present token waste confidently and say dollar impact depends on current model pricing instead of inventing a cost.

**OpenClaw Security + Cost Check** (March 2026):

  • If OpenClaw is detected and version < 2026.3.12: flag as HIGH severity. 31 CVEs including ClawJacked (full agent takeover). Compromised instances run rogue agents that burn tokens undetected. Recommend immediate upgrade.
  • Check for ClawHub skills matching ClawHavoc campaign patterns (1,184+ malicious skills). These skills exfiltrate data via extra API calls, inflating token spend.
  • Flag if gateway rate limiting is disabled (CVE-2026-25253). Without it, brute-force attacks can spawn unlimited agent sessions. Recommend: `openclaw config set security.rateLimit.enabled true`

Phase 3: Present Findings

[Fleet Auditor Results]

SYSTEMS DETECTED
- Claude Code: X runs ($Y.YY)
- Codex: X runs ($Y.YY)
- OpenClaw: X runs ($Y.YY)

WASTE PATTERNS FOUND
1. [SEVERITY] Description
   Est. savings: $X.XX/month
   Fix: recommendation

2. [SEVERITY] Description
   ...

TOTAL POTENTIAL SAVINGS: $X.XX/month

Ready to act? I can:
1. Show detailed fix snippets for each finding
2. Generate the fleet dashboard for visual analysis
3. Run /token-optimizer for deeper Claude Code optimization

---

Phase 4: Dashboard (optional)

If user wants visual analysis:

python3 "$FLEET_PY" dashboard

This generates `~/.claude/_backups/token-optimizer/fleet-dashboard.html` in Claude Code, or `~/.codex/_backups/token-optimizer/fleet-dashboard.html` when `TOKEN_OPTIMIZER_RUNTIME=codex`.

---

Phase 5: Deep Dive (optional)

For Claude Code specifically, offer `/token-optimizer` for full audit (`CLAUDE.md`, skills, MCP, hooks, etc.).

For Codex specifically, offer `token-optimizer` for full audit (`AGENTS.md`, Codex memories, plugin skills, MCP, balanced hooks, compact prompt, status line).

For other systems, show the fix snippets
