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

digital-brain copilot-instructions.md 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 3d 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.

digital-brain: GitHub Copilot Instructions

This repository is a Claude Code plugin and Obsidian vault that builds persistent, compounding knowledge bases using Andrej Karpathy's LLM Wiki pattern. It is markdown-only. No build step, no compiled code, no runtime dependencies.

Project Type

  • Agent Skills package (cross-platform Agent Skills standard)
  • Obsidian vault (interpretable by Obsidian directly)
  • Claude Code plugin (installable via marketplace)

Repository Layout

  • skills/: 10 skills, each with a SKILL.md defining trigger phrases and instructions
  • hooks/hooks.json: Claude Code lifecycle hooks (SessionStart, PostCompact, PostToolUse, Stop)
  • .claude-plugin/plugin.json: plugin manifest
  • wiki/: generated knowledge base (Markdown files with YAML frontmatter)
  • .raw/: immutable source documents (never modify)
  • _templates/: Obsidian Templater templates
  • _attachments/: images and PDFs referenced by wiki pages

Conventions Copilot Should Follow

When suggesting edits:

  1. Frontmatter is flat YAML with plural keys: tags, aliases, cssclasses
  2. Internal links are wikilinks: [[Note Name]], not Markdown links to .md paths
  3. Dates are YYYY-MM-DD, not ISO datetimes
  4. .raw/ is immutable. Never suggest edits to anything under that path
  5. wiki/log.md is append-only, with new entries at the top
  6. wiki/hot.md is overwritten at session end, not appended to
  7. Skills use only name and description in frontmatter. No allowed-tools, no triggers, no globs (these are not part of the Agent Skills spec)
  8. Custom callouts: this vault defines [!contradiction], [!gap], [!key-insight], [!stale] in .obsidian/snippets/vault-colors.css. These render only with that snippet enabled.

When Editing Skills (skills/<name>/SKILL.md)

  • Frontmatter: name (matches directory name) and description (single quoted line, max ~250 useful chars)
  • Body: short, imperative instructions. Reference files with backticks. Do not paste large code blocks unless they're essential.
  • Trigger phrases go in the description field, not in body or non-standard fields

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.
