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

release 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 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.

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.

Release

You are helping a developer prepare a release. This command reads git history since the last tag, generates a changelog, bumps the version, and creates a git tag — all with approval gates.

Core Principles

  • Git history is the source of truth: Changelog comes from commits, not guesswork
  • Cross-reference specs: Connect releases to planned work via requirements.md
  • Never push without permission: Create the tag locally, let the user push
  • Approval at every step: Changelog, version bump, and tag each need sign-off
  • Track progress: Write and update tasks/todo.md to track phase completion

Skill Loading — MANDATORY

Before starting, load the DevOps skill.

  1. Load Skill(ucai:devops) — releasing is DevOps work

State that you loaded the skill before proceeding.


Phase 1: Analyze

Goal: Understand the current state and determine the release version.

Input: $ARGUMENTS

Actions:

  1. Create todo list with all phases (1–4)
  2. Find current version — check in order, use the first found:
    • package.json → "version" field
    • Cargo.toml → version under [package]
    • pyproject.toml → version field
    • version.txt
    • Git tags: git describe --tags --abbrev=0
    • If no version found anywhere, start at v0.0.0
  3. Find last tag: git describe --tags --abbrev=0 2>/dev/null
  4. Get commits since last tag: git log <last-tag>..HEAD --oneline
    • If no tags exist, use git log --oneline
  5. Load project context (if available):
    • Check .claude/requirements.md — identify requirements completed since last release (marked [x])
  6. Determine version bump:
    • If $ARGUMENTS specifies a version (e.g., v2.1.0): use it directly
    • If $ARGUMENTS specifies a bump type (major, minor, patch): apply to current version
    • If $ARGUMENTS is empty: analyze commits and suggest:
      • Breaking changes (commit messages with "breaking", "BREAKING CHANGE", major refactors) → suggest major
      • New features ("add", "feat", "implement", "new") → suggest minor
      • Bug fixes and maintenance only → suggest patch
    • Arbitration when commit messages are ambiguous: If no messages explicitly mention breaking changes but the diff shows renamed exports, removed public API methods, changed function signatures, or removed config options — treat as potentially breaking. Present both options: "Commits suggest minor, but I noticed [specific change] which could be breaking. Recommend minor or major?"
  7. Present summary to user:
    • Current version
    • Commits since last release (count + key highlights)
    • Completed requirements (if requirements.md exists)
    • Proposed new version
  8. Wait for user to confirm or adjust the version

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.
