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

catchup 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 3d 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

Catch me up on the crew bus.

Steps:

  1. Call whoami to see unread DMs and my open claimed tasks.
  2. Call read_messages for my direct messages (mark them read) and skim the main channels for the last $ARGUMENTS hours (default 8) with read_messages on each active channel from list_channels.
  3. Call team_digest for the same window.

Then give me:

  • Anything addressed to me (DMs, mentions, questions waiting on me) — first and most prominent.
  • Decisions or announcements I should know about.
  • Changes to tasks I claimed or created.
  • A one-line "nothing needs you" if that is the honest answer.

Do not start any work from this command — just report. If something urgent is waiting on me, propose the next action and ask before doing it.

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.
