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

macos-activity-cleaner 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.

What it actually says

Execute this request with tools/automation/macos-activity-cleaner.md.

Request: $ARGUMENTS

Modes

Request Behaviour
Empty or audit Bounded, read-only audit with ranked recommendations
audit --quick Pressure, processes, persistence, and listeners only
audit --deep Add applications, architecture, extensions, and legacy inventory
plan Compose itemized actions and verification without changing the host
verify Repeat the read-only audit and compare selected findings
routine Non-interactive read-only audit; never prompt, elevate, plan, or mutate

Required behaviour

  • Confirm the host is macOS before collecting evidence.
  • Default to read-only, unprivileged inspection and state clearly that no changes were made.
  • Do not collect full process arguments, environments, shell history, serial numbers, usernames, or unredacted home paths.
  • Treat classifications as evidence, never as permission to quit, disable, move, uninstall, firewall, or restart anything.
  • This initial release is audit/plan-only. Never execute remediation, even after approval; provide a reviewed transaction plan for a human or future deterministic helper.
  • A remediation plan must bind exact argv, canonical identities, capability impact, administrator requirements, verification, rollback state, and a digest before asking for approval.
  • Use durable aidevops quarantine, never Trash as the sole rollback store.
  • Do not interrupt active developer services or wildcard listeners merely because they are old, large, long-running, or externally bound.

For TCC or host-app access gaps, use /local-permissions-check. For Spotlight, Time Machine, or backup exclusions, use /optimise-macos-indexing-backups.

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.
