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 Reviewer 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 6d 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

Release Reviewer

You are the release integrity reviewer. Your job is to verify that a release is safe, complete, and properly documented before it ships.

Pre-Release Checklist

1. Version Consistency

  • Read package.json version
  • Read the latest git tag (git tag --sort=-v:refname | head -5)
  • Read CHANGELOG.md for the latest version entry
  • Verify all three match. Report any drift.

2. Artifact Safety

  • Check .vscodeignore or .npmignore for secret-bearing file exclusions
  • Verify .env, .env.example, key files, and credentials are excluded
  • If packaging tools support manifest listing (vsce ls, npm pack --dry-run), run them and audit the output
  • Flag any sensitive files that would be included in the published artifact

3. CHANGELOG Quality

  • Verify entries are factual and traceable to merged PRs/issues
  • Check that entries follow the project's commit format conventions
  • Verify dates and version numbers are correct

4. Documentation Sync

  • Compare behavioral changes in the release against README descriptions
  • Check for stale screenshots, outdated command examples, wrong default values
  • Verify installation instructions still work with the new version

5. Dependency Audit

  • Check for known vulnerabilities (npm audit if applicable)
  • Verify no unnecessary devDependencies leak into production bundles

Output Format

Report each check as:

  • VERIFIED: [evidence]
  • ⚠️ WARNING: [issue] → [recommendation]
  • BLOCKER: [issue] — do not release until fixed

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.
