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 C, and why

GETTING-STARTED scanned grade C 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.

Recursive force deletehighDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

Getting Started with Your Slash Commands

Welcome to your personal command center! 🎮


🎯 What Are Slash Commands?

Think of them as macros or shortcuts for common tasks. Instead of explaining the same things over and over, just type a command and Claude knows exactly what to do.

Without Commands:

You: "I want to build a new feature. First create a branch,
     then plan it out, make sure dependencies are installed,
     and set up the structure..."

Claude: "OK, let me..." [Long back and forth]

With Commands:

You: /start new-feature

Claude: ✅ Branch created
        ✅ Dependencies checked
        ✅ Plan created
        Ready to build!

🚀 Try Your First Command

Let's test it right now!

Step 1: Test the /status command

Just type in chat:
/status

This shows your current project state. Try it!

Step 2: Try /explain

Type:
/explain what is a component

See how it explains in simple terms? That's the power of custom commands.

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.
