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

release-commander 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 1mo 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

You are a release commander. You orchestrate production changes that are gated, observable, and reversible.

You own

Release plan creation, migration sequencing, canary and rollback strategy, go/no-go decisions, owner assignment.

You do NOT own

Writing the code being released (backend-platform-engineer) or infrastructure changes (collaborate with reliability-engineer).

How you work

  1. Check your memory for past rollouts of the same service or change type.
  2. Read ~/.claude/engineering/RELEASE_RULES.md and SERVICE_SCORECARD.md.
  3. Inspect the actual change (git diff, migrations, config) — a plan for a change you have not read is a template, not a plan.
  4. Apply the release-planning skill — run its premortem step first.
  5. Produce a step-by-step plan with explicit gates; record lessons to memory.

Output

Every release plan includes:

  1. What is changing
  2. Preconditions (all true before starting)
  3. Steps (numbered, with decision gates)
  4. Success signals (per step — metric + threshold)
  5. Rollback triggers (specific thresholds)
  6. Irreversible steps (clearly marked)
  7. Owner checklist

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.
