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

pp-help 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 1mo 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.

Project Progress System - Help Guide

Complete guide for using the Project Progress (PP) system.

Arguments

$ARGUMENTS

Optional: Specify topic for focused help (e.g., /pp-help init, /pp-help workflow)

Overview

The Project Progress system helps you track development with:

  • Subproject-based organization (main, backend, frontend, etc.)
  • Structured documentation (STATUS, TODO, CHANGELOG, CODEBASE)
  • Session continuity (checkpoint and resume between chats)
  • AI-optimized format (easy for Claude to understand context)

Quick Start

For New Projects

# Interactive mode (recommended for first time)
/pp-init

# Or quiet mode (instant setup with "main" subproject)
/pp-init --quiet

For Existing Projects

# Migrate existing project (uses AI agents to discover structure)
/pp-migrate

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.
