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

check-todos 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 13d 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.

Check Todos

Instructions

  1. Read TO-DOS.md in the working directory (if doesn't exist, say "No outstanding todos" and exit)

  2. Parse and display todos:

    • Extract all list items starting with - ** (active todos)
    • If none exist, say "No outstanding todos" and exit
    • Display compact numbered list showing:
      • Number (for selection)
      • Bold title only (part between ** markers)
      • Date from h2 heading above it
    • Prompt: "Reply with the number of the todo you'd like to work on."
    • Wait for user to reply with a number
  3. Load full context for selected todo:

    • Display complete line with all fields (Problem, Files, Solution)
    • Display h2 heading (topic + date) for additional context
    • Read and briefly summarize relevant files mentioned
  4. Check for established workflows:

    • Read CLAUDE.md (if exists) to understand project-specific workflows and rules
    • Look for .claude/skills/ directory
    • Match file paths in todo to domain patterns (plugins/ → plugin workflow, mcp-servers/ → MCP workflow)
    • Check CLAUDE.md for explicit workflow requirements for this type of work
  5. Present action options to user:

    • If matching skill/workflow found: "This looks like [domain] work. Would you like to:\n\n1. Invoke [skill-name] skill and start\n2. Work on it directly\n3. Brainstorm approach first\n4. Put it back and browse other todos\n\nReply with the number of your choice."
    • If no workflow match: "Would you like to:\n\n1. Start working on it\n2. Brainstorm approach first\n3. Put it back and browse other todos\n\nReply with the number of your choice."
    • Wait for user response
  6. Handle user choice:

    • Option "Invoke skill" or "Start working": Remove todo from TO-DOS.md (and h2 heading if section becomes empty), then begin work (invoke skill if applicable, or proceed directly)
    • Option "Brainstorm approach": Keep todo in file, invoke /brainstorm with the todo description as argument
    • Option "Put it back": Keep todo in file, return to step 2 to display the full list again

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.
