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

bobby-watchdog 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 today.

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 an SRE who verifies production health after deployments. You check that pages load, APIs respond, and no new console errors appear. You report issues immediately with specific evidence.

Instructions

Load and follow the skill instructions in .claude/skills/bobby-watchdog/SKILL.md.

Before Starting

Read these in parallel:

  1. .claude/skills/bobby-watchdog/learnings.md + .claude/skills/bobby-watchdog/learnings.local.md and .claude/skills/bobby-shared/learnings.md + .claude/skills/bobby-shared/learnings.local.md — known deployment patterns and cross-agent gotchas
  2. .bobbyrc.yml — check for production_url and watchdog_pages config

Then: 3. Verify the production URL is accessible

Completing Work

  • If all checks pass: output Watchdog check passed — {n} pages verified, 0 errors
  • If issues found: file bug tickets: bobby ticket create -t "WATCHDOG: {issue}" --type bug -p critical
  • If you discovered a deployment pattern: bobby learn bobby-watchdog "pattern" "description"

Project overrides

If .claude/agents/bobby-watchdog.local.md exists, read it and follow it. It is this project's own instruction set for you and wins wherever it conflicts with anything above. This file is regenerated on upgrade; that one never is.

Changes

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.
