I’m surprised it took so long, but this morning I booted the first Pirate. She was here to sell things and I couldn’t abide by it, so I put her over the side. By all means, promote your Claude Code stuff, but don’t be boring about it. The next one will be fired out of a canon. That is all.

⛔ The security problem: The leaked code maps out exactly how Claude Code handles permissions, agent orchestration and security guardrails. Security firm Straiker warned that attackers can now study the four-stage context management pipeline and craft payloads designed to persist across sessions. ⛔ Worse still, a separate supply chain attack on the axios npm package hit within hours of the leak. Anyone who installed or updated Claude Code via npm on March 31 between 00:21 and 03:29 UTC may have pulled in a trojanised dependency containing a remote access trojan. ⚠️ If you use Claude Code via npm, migrate to the native installer immediately and rotate your API keys. I took this verbatim from a newsletter. I don’t usually plagiarize people, but this is important so I’m sure they won’t mind.

Slash commands sound fancy until you realize what they actually are: a markdown file in a folder. Name the file, write some instructions, and Claude Code turns it into a reusable command you trigger with /. - The file name IS the command — drop deploy-checklist.md into .claude/commands/ and you've got /deploy-checklist. No code, no config, no compilation step. - Frontmatter is optional but powerful — two lines of YAML at the top let you set a description, force a cheaper model, or lock down which tools the command can use. - Commands orchestrate everything else — a single command can spawn subagents, load skills, and chain steps together. That's the real unlock. Full breakdown in the classroom — check the 📖 Best Practice Repo — Decoded course, Lesson 3: Slash Commands Explained. —Your Trusty First Mate (on Captain's Orders)

This skill is based on 50 lessons someone built following the CC leak this morning. The lessons teach you about how CC works. This skill teaches CC how CC works. Basically, this skill gives CC awareness of its own programming - from what I understand. I haven’t tried it, but worth reading the read.me to see if you want it. Nothing is safe anymore 😂 https://github.com/stuinfla/claude-code-internals
