cancel

cancel is a command for coding agents from arcobaleno64/agy-plugin-cc. It costs 9 tokens per session (493 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that stops an active background Gemini job. A background job continues running after you start it.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to cancel a queued or running job, or an active group of jobs from an adversarial review.
Why use it?
It prevents an unwanted or no-longer-needed task from continuing to use time or computing resources.

Command

Installs and runs on its own, but its text points at files inside its plugin — anything it tells you to read at a ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} path is only there once the plugin is installed. Installing the plugin gets both.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

cancel 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 4d 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

!node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/gemini-companion.mjs" status

The user's raw arguments, as text and nothing else: $ARGUMENTS

Those arguments must never reach a shell

The listing above ran before you saw it, with no arguments, on purpose. $ARGUMENTS is substituted into this file as text, so a shell receiving it would evaluate whatever it contains — $(…), backticks, ;, |. Measured on the sibling command: $(echo INJECTED) was executed and its output passed on as the job id.

Cancelling ends work that is running and may have already been paid for, so the id has to be right for a second reason. Build the command from these pieces only:

  • cancel plus a job id copied character-for-character from the listing above, and only from a job whose status is queued or running.
  • Or an adversarial-review group id, copied the same way, which cancels every member of that group that is still active and leaves finished members alone. Group ids look like review-group-msqu22ju; /gemini:status <group-id> lists the members.
  • The literal flag --all, added only because the argument text asked to cancel a job from another session — never copied from that text.

If the user named nothing and exactly one job is active in the listing, cancel that one. If several are active, show them and ask which — do not guess.

If the user named something that does not appear in the listing, say so and stop. Do not pass their text to the companion to find out.

Scope

By default cancel targets only jobs from the current Claude session — never a job tagged to another session, including via the no-argument "cancel the one active job" shortcut. When no session id is present (running the companion outside Claude Code), only session-agnostic untagged jobs are in scope. --all is what deliberately crosses that boundary.

Present the companion's output as returned.

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.
