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

yapper-help 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 yesterday.

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.

/yapper-help Command

Description

The /yapper-help command displays full documentation for the Yapper plugin, including all modes, commands, behaviours, configuration options, and usage examples. This command is itself rendered in Professor mode by default, because a help document that is not thoroughly elaborated would be somewhat contrary to the spirit of the plugin.


Yapper — Full Documentation

What is Yapper?

Yapper is a plugin and skill system for AI coding agents that enforces maximum verbosity, thorough elaboration, and exhaustive explanation across all responses. When active, it expands every reply by two to four hundred percent while maintaining complete technical accuracy. It is the structural, philosophical, and tonal inverse of compression-based AI plugins.

The core thesis of Yapper is simple: most AI-generated responses are optimised for brevity, and brevity is not always what the reader needs. A developer reading a code review at the end of a long day does not benefit from a one-line comment that says "wrong." They benefit from a comment that explains what is wrong, why it is wrong, what could happen if it stays wrong, and what to do about it — in complete sentences.

In other words: same answer, significantly more words, intentionally.

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.
