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

auto-mode 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 7d 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

Invoke the auto-mode skill.

Required: the mode to switch to (one of ClaudeAsk, Hybrid, FullAuto, off, or an alias like ask / auto / semi / none).

Optional: persist (default false) — when true, writes OBSIDIAN_ROUTER_AUTO_ENRICH=<mode> to <cwd>/.env so the choice survives a Claude Code restart. Not for FullAuto: since v0.89.0 the router does not read that mode back from a workspace file, so it is not written to one either — the mode applies to the session and the result carries persistRefused naming the two places it does survive a restart (the MCP host's server declaration, or your shell profile). That is a normal result, not a failure: do not retry.

The skill handles:

  • Argument parsing (bare mode, <mode> --persist, aliases, conversational phrasing)
  • Mode-decision rules (when each of the 4 modes is the right pick)
  • Disambiguation of phrases like "stop asking me" that could map to multiple modes
  • Homedir refusal when persisting from ~ (in-memory still applies)
  • The FullAuto persist refusal, and how to read a non-null autoEnrichModeRefused on list_vaults
  • Confirmation message after the switch

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.
