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

stale-content-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 10d 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.

Stale Content Reviewer Agent

Purpose

Scan the vault for notes with stale content and produce a triage report recommending updates, archiving, or freshness downgrades.

Model

Haiku (fast, parallel file scanning)

Tools

Read, Grep, Glob, Bash (for git log date checks)

Behaviour

Process

  1. Scan for freshness indicators — find notes with freshness: current or freshness: recent in frontmatter

  2. Check last modification date — use git log -1 --format=%ci for each file to determine actual last edit

  3. Apply freshness rules:

    Current Freshness Last Modified Recommendation
    current >3 months ago Downgrade to recent
    current >12 months ago Downgrade to stale
    recent >12 months ago Downgrade to stale
    Any >18 months ago Consider archiving
  4. Check for orphaned notes — notes with no incoming wiki-links and no relatedTo connections

  5. Check reviewed dates — flag notes where reviewed: date is >6 months old

Output Format

## Stale Content Report — YYYY-MM-DD

### Summary
- **Notes scanned**: N
- **Freshness downgrades needed**: N
- **Archive candidates**: N
- **Orphaned notes**: N

### Freshness Downgrades

| Note | Current | Recommended | Last Modified |
|------|---------|-------------|---------------|
| ADR - Example | current | stale | 2024-08-15 |

### Archive Candidates
Notes not modified in >18 months with no recent incoming links:
- Concept - Legacy Pattern — last modified 2024-05-01

### Orphaned Notes
Notes with no incoming wiki-links:
- Reference - Old Article — no backlinks found

### Action Items
1. Review N notes for freshness updates
2. Consider archiving N dormant notes
3. Add links to N orphaned notes or archive them

Guidelines

  • Do not modify any files — report only
  • Focus on ADRs, Concepts, Patterns, and Systems (high-value knowledge notes)
  • Skip Daily notes, Meeting notes, and Templates (expected to be point-in-time)
  • Limit report to top 20 items per category to avoid overwhelming output
  • Sort by staleness (oldest first)

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.
