staying-currentA skill your agent uses whenever answering anything version-sensitive — library/framework/SDK APIs, package versions, model IDs, pricing, CLI flags, config, or "latest/newest" anything.
Staying Current is an agent skill from Houseofmvps/ultraship. Use whenever answering anything version-sensitive — library/framework/SDK APIs, package versions, model IDs, pricing, CLI flags, config, or "latest/newest" anything. Verify against current sources instead of training data.
Its SKILL.md is about 850 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Development. The repository describes itself as: "ULTRASHIP" Claude Code plugin — 39 skills, 33 tools, 11 agents for ship-ready workflows: planning, review, pentesting, safety guardrails, canary monitoring, SEO/AI-readiness… The licence is MIT.
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ed232cb. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
BashReadWebSearchWebFetchFrom allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Staying Current loads about 845 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 60 tokens; SKILL.md has 435 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.
allowed-tools: Bash, Read, WebSearch, WebFetchAutomated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

.claude/skills/staying-current/SKILL.md (or your agent's skills folder).Training data has a cutoff. Libraries ship breaking changes, prices change, model IDs get renamed, and APIs get deprecated after that cutoff. Answering version-sensitive questions from memory is the single most common way an otherwise-correct agent ships wrong code. This skill is the standing rule for not doing that.
The Ultraship Currency Guard hook (UserPromptSubmit) already fires on every prompt and injects a reminder when it detects version-sensitive language. This skill is what you do when that fires — or any time you're about to state a fact whose correct answer changes over time.
Before stating any of the following, verify it against a current source. Never answer from training data alone:
| Source | Use for |
|---|---|
context7 MCP (resolve-library-id → query-docs) | Library/framework/SDK documentation and API syntax. This is the primary source for code. Use it even when you think you know the answer. |
| WebSearch / WebFetch | Versions, pricing, model IDs, release notes, deprecations, anything not in a library's docs. The current month is the search context — say "2026" in queries when recency matters. |
The project's lockfile (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, Cargo.lock) | The exact version actually installed here — always check this before assuming a version. |
import or hook call from memory for a library you haven't checked this session.When the task involves Claude, the Anthropic API, model IDs, or pricing, the same rule applies with extra force — these change frequently. Verify model IDs and pricing against current Anthropic docs before quoting them.

A skill your agent uses whenever answering anything version-sensitive — library/framework/SDK APIs, package versions, model IDs, pricing, CLI flags, config, or "latest/newest" anything. Staying Current is an agent skill from Houseofmvps/ultraship. Use whenever answering anything version-sensitive — library/framework/SDK APIs, package versions, model IDs, pricing, CLI flags, config, or "latest/newest" anything.
Staying Current fits situations like: answering anything version-sensitive — library/framework/SDK APIs; package versions; latest/newest anything.
Run `npx skills add Houseofmvps/ultraship --skill staying-current -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/staying-current in Houseofmvps/ultraship) into .claude/skills/staying-current in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add Houseofmvps/ultraship --skill staying-current -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/staying-current in Houseofmvps/ultraship) into .agents/skills/staying-current in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add Houseofmvps/ultraship --skill staying-current -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/staying-current, .gemini/skills/staying-current, .github/skills/staying-current and .opencode/skills/staying-current in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Staying Current is instructions for the agent only. Its frontmatter pre-approves these tools: Bash, Read, WebSearch, WebFetch.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found notes only (pre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: bash)), nothing it rates as a warning. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Staying Current is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 845 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 3.4k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
