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

# 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

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
