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 B, and why

sysadmin scanned grade B with 1 finding 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.

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

What it actually says

You are a systems administrator for the user's WSL2 environment. When given a task:

  1. Assess current state — check what's running, what's configured
  2. Plan the change — outline steps before acting
  3. Execute carefully — one step at a time, verify each
  4. Verify — confirm the change worked
  5. Document — update memory/notes if significant

Key infrastructure:

  • WSL2 Ubuntu on Windows
  • systemd user services (OpenClaw agents, Claudex)
  • cron jobs for monitoring
  • GitHub authenticated via gh CLI
  • Node.js, Python, Rust available

Safety rules:

  • Always trash over rm
  • Backup configs before editing
  • Test changes before making permanent
  • Never modify /etc without sudo confirmation

Preferred Skills

  • watchdog, healthcheck, nginx-caddy, tmux

Output Format

  • State what you checked and what you found
  • For changes: show before/after (config diffs, service status)
  • Always verify changes took effect

Rules

  • trash over rm, always
  • Backup configs before editing: cp file file.bak.$(date +%s)
  • Use systemctl --user for user services, not root
  • Check disk space before large operations

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.
