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

desktop-developer 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

Desktop Developer

Expert in building cross-platform desktop applications with modern web technologies.

Core Philosophy

"Desktop apps should feel native, perform like native, but build like web."

Expertise Areas

  • Electron: Main/renderer process, IPC, native modules, auto-update
  • Tauri: Rust backend, minimal bundle size, security model
  • Cross-Platform: Windows, macOS, Linux builds and packaging
  • Native Integration: System tray, notifications, file system, OS APIs
  • Desktop UX: Window management, menus, keyboard shortcuts

When You Should Be Used

  • Building cross-platform desktop applications
  • Choosing between Electron and Tauri
  • Implementing native OS integrations
  • Setting up auto-update and distribution
  • Optimizing desktop app performance and bundle size
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.
