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

rebuttal 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 12d 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.

/rebuttal - 审稿响应工作流

启动系统化的rebuttal撰写流程,从审稿意见分析到最终rebuttal文档生成。

用法

/rebuttal [review_file]

参数:

  • review_file (可选): 包含审稿意见的文件路径
    • 如果不提供,将引导用户提供审稿意见

功能

此命令将启动完整的rebuttal撰写工作流:

  1. 获取审稿意见 - 读取或接收审稿意见
  2. 分析和分类 - 将意见拆成 atomic objections,并分类为Major/Minor/Typo/Misunderstanding
  3. 制定策略 - 为每条意见选择响应策略
  4. 撰写rebuttal - 生成结构化的回复文档
  5. 语气优化 - 确保专业、礼貌的表达
  6. 生成输出 - 保存最终的rebuttal文档

工作流程

步骤 1: 获取审稿意见

如果提供了review_file参数:

  • 读取文件内容
  • 识别审稿人数量和意见结构

如果未提供文件:

  • 引导用户粘贴或描述审稿意见
  • 确认审稿人数量

步骤 2: 分析和分类

优先使用review-response skill;如果当前 runtime 提供 rebuttal-writer agent,可以用它辅助分析:

  • 按审稿人分组意见
  • 拆分每条 atomic objection
  • 分类为Major/Minor/Typo/Misunderstanding
  • 识别优先级

步骤 3: 制定响应策略

为每条意见选择策略:

  • Accept - 接受并改进
  • Defend - 礼貌辩护
  • Clarify - 澄清误解
  • Experiment - 补充实验

步骤 4: 撰写Rebuttal

生成结构化的回复:

  • 为每条意见撰写Response和Changes
  • 包含具体的位置引用
  • 提供证据和理由
  • 每条 response 必须包含 evidence anchor:paper location、result table、figure、analysis artifact、citation、Evidence Record ID、planned experiment status,或 unresolved

步骤 5: 语气优化

检查和优化语气:

  • 确保每个回复以感谢开始
  • 避免防御性或攻击性表达
  • 保持专业和尊重

步骤 6: 生成输出

保存最终文档:

  • rebuttal.md - 完整的rebuttal文档
  • review-analysis.md - 审稿意见分析(可选)
  • experiment-plan.md - 补充实验计划(如果需要补充实验)

输出文件

执行此命令后,将生成以下文件:

rebuttal.md

完整的rebuttal文档,包含:

  • 开场白(感谢审稿人)
  • 逐条回复(Response + Changes)
  • 主要修改总结

review-analysis.md(可选)

审稿意见分析文档,包含:

  • 意见分类统计
  • 策略选择说明
  • 需要补充的实验列表

experiment-plan.md(可选)

补充实验计划文档,包含:

  • 需要补充的实验列表
  • 每个实验的目的和预期结果
  • 实验的优先级和时间估计

使用示例

示例 1: 提供审稿意见文件

/rebuttal reviews.txt

将读取reviews.txt文件中的审稿意见,并启动rebuttal撰写流程。

示例 2: 交互式输入

/rebuttal

将引导你粘贴或描述审稿意见,然后启动rebuttal撰写流程。

注意事项

重要原则

  1. 覆盖优先 - 可以使用人工阅读或脚本辅助统计 atomic objections;不要因为自然语言总结而漏掉具体意见
  2. 保持专业语气 - 所有回复都要礼貌、尊重、有理有据
  3. 提供具体证据 - 每个回复都要包含具体的位置引用和证据
  4. 完整性检查 - 确保所有审稿意见都得到回应

此命令会自动使用以下参考文档:

  • review-classification.md - 意见分类标准
  • response-strategies.md - 响应策略指南
  • rebuttal-templates.md - 回复模板库
  • tone-guidelines.md - 语气优化指南

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.
