finger-dev

A repository command for checking a teammate's current work and availability. It sends a username to a teammate-status tool and displays the returned result unchanged.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to look up what a named teammate is working on and whether they are available.
Why use it?
It avoids having to find that status manually or reformat the response.

Command

Part of the biff-dev plugin — 24 commands, 2 agents, 5 hooks shipped together

Install

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

agentmods
npx agentmods add commands/punt-labs/biff/finger-dev
Clone the repo
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/punt-labs/biff

Or install biff-dev, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 24 commands, 2 agents, 5 hooks.

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

finger-dev 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 2d 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

Input

Arguments: $ARGUMENTS

Parse the username from arguments, stripping any leading @ if present.

Task

Call mcp__plugin_biff-dev_tty__finger with user set to the parsed username. Emit the tool output exactly as returned — character for character, including the leading ▶ unicode character. Do not reformat, add commentary, wrap in code fences, convert to markdown tables, or add boxes around the output.

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.
