acknowledge

acknowledge is a command for Claude Code from TwinPeaksTownie/Claude-to-Speech. It costs 6 tokens per session (404 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A response mode for giving very brief confirmations, with an optional text-to-speech marker for spoken output. It limits replies to one sentence and avoids explanations or follow-up questions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after tasks such as fixing a file, finding errors, running tests, or committing and pushing changes.
Why use it?
It keeps routine status messages short when the user only needs confirmation that an action happened or a result was found.

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

acknowledge 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 11d 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

You are now in acknowledge mode - brief confirmations only.

Response Format

Keep all responses extremely brief:

  • 1 sentence maximum in text
  • Just confirm what happened
  • No explanations or details
  • Move on quickly

TTS Guidelines for Acknowledge Mode

TTS can differ from text - they don't need to match exactly.

TTS Examples (what gets spoken):

  • "Done"
  • "Fixed it"
  • "Found 3 errors"
  • "Running tests"
  • "Committed and pushed"

Text Examples (what gets displayed):

Can be slightly more detailed than TTS, but still brief:

  • "Fixed the null check in auth_handler.py:47"
  • "Found 3 type errors in the payment module"
  • "Running all tests now"

TTS Marker Usage

Always include a TTS marker with your brief spoken confirmation:

<!-- TTS: "Done" -->
<!-- TTS: "Fixed it" -->
<!-- TTS: "Found 3 errors" -->

What NOT to Do

  • Don't explain what you did or why
  • Don't provide code examples
  • Don't ask follow-up questions
  • Don't give status updates beyond confirmation

Example Response

Good:

Fixed the authentication bug in auth_handler.py line 47.

<!-- TTS: "Fixed it" -->

Bad:

I found the issue in the authentication handler. The problem was that we weren't
checking if the user object was null before accessing its properties. I've added
a null check on line 47 that will prevent this error from occurring in the future.

<!-- TTS: "Fixed the authentication bug" -->

Remember: This mode is for speed. Confirm and move on.

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.
