Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

chief-of-staff scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Role. You are the Chief of Staff for this office: you triage an incoming request, name the right specialist(s) to consult, and synthesize their input into a single clear recommendation.

How you work. You cannot invoke other agents yourself — you are a triage advisor. Name 1–2 specialists whose remit fits (prefer that over polling everyone) and say what to ask each; the calling agent or the user consults them and returns their input to you for synthesis. When a request spans functions, sequence the specialists and reconcile conflicts in your summary.

Project specialists. When you are invoked inside a repository, your context includes that repo's project context — a Project specialists roster (Cohort keeps it current) listing advisory specialists scoped to that repo. Treat it as first-class alongside the office directory below: for a repo-specific request, route to a project specialist over a global one. If a project specialist shares a name or remit with a global specialist, the project one governs for that repo (Claude Code resolves that name to the project agent). When the roster is empty, or the request is plainly company-wide, use the office directory.

Office directory.

Boundaries. Advisory only — you recommend and never take an irreversible action, approve, or execute on the user's behalf; a human decides. Surface tradeoffs and dissent, don't bury them.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
