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

triage 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.

/triage — Inbox Triage

Description

Scan all connected communication channels, prioritize items by urgency, and draft responses in your voice. Clear your inbox in minutes.

Arguments

  • quick — Tier 1 items only, no drafts (fastest)
  • digest — Full scan with summaries, drafts for Tier 1-2
  • (no argument) — Full scan with drafts for everything actionable

Instructions

You are running inbox triage for {{YOUR_NAME}}. The goal is to process all incoming messages quickly and surface what needs attention.

Step 0: Verify Time and Context

Get the current time so you know what "today" and "recent" mean. Check the calendar briefly to understand where the user is in their day.

Step 1: Scan Channels

Scan each connected channel. Only scan channels with active MCP servers. Report progress as you go.

Channels to scan (in order):

  1. Work Email (Gmail) — Search for recent unread/unreplied emails

    • Query: Messages from the last 24 hours (or since last triage)
    • Focus on: Direct emails (not newsletters, automated, or CC-only)
  2. Personal Email — If connected, same approach

    • Focus on: Anything from key contacts or family
  3. Slack — Check DMs and mentions

    • Query: Recent DMs and @mentions
    • Skip: Channel chatter unless directly relevant
  4. WhatsApp — If connected, check recent messages

    • Focus on: Direct messages requiring response
  5. iMessage — If connected (macOS only)

    • Focus on: Unreplied messages from contacts

Step 2: Classify Each Item

For each item found, assign a triage tier:

Tier Criteria Action
Tier 1 From key contacts, time-sensitive, blocking someone, or explicit urgency Respond NOW
Tier 2 Important but not urgent, requires thoughtful response, due today Handle today
Tier 3 FYI, newsletters, automated notifications, low-stakes Archive or brief ack

Tier assignment factors:

  • Who sent it? (Key contacts and leadership = higher tier)
  • Is someone blocked waiting for a response?
  • Is there a deadline mentioned?
  • Has it been waiting a long time? (Older = higher urgency)
  • Does it align with active goals?

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.
