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

polish-repo 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 6d 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

Audit the current repository and fix any missing or incomplete hygiene files.

Steps:

  1. Sync from remote first: git pull
  2. Detect the project type (Node.js, Python, Unity, academic, etc.)
  3. Audit these files:
    • .gitignore -- exists? covers the right patterns for project type?
    • .env.example -- needed? (search for process.env or os.getenv usage)
    • README.md -- exists? has meaningful content (not just the repo name)?
    • LICENSE -- exists?
  4. For each missing/incomplete item:
    • Generate appropriate content using the repo-polish skill templates
    • Show what will be created/changed
  5. Check for committed secrets:
    • Search for .env files with real values
    • Search for hardcoded API keys or passwords
    • Flag any findings as critical
  6. Stage specific files (never git add .)
  7. Commit with: chore: add missing repo hygiene files
  8. Show summary of all changes made

Use the repo-polish skill for all templates and patterns. Never commit .env files with real credentials.

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.
