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 C, and why

qaskills CLAUDE.md scanned grade C with 2 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 23d 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.

Recursive force deletehighDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

- Deleting files you did not create this session; `rm -rf` anywhere in the repo; force push; history rewrites

Makes network callslowCapability

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

4. **The stale .env.local seed.** Seeding "production" using `.env.local`'s `DATABASE_URL`, which points at an old non-prod database; the live site never changes and new skills 404. Rule: `.env.local` is NOT production.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 222 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

CLAUDE.md

Operating manual for AI agents working in this repository. It is written so a model with less judgment than the one that wrote it can still ship at the same level: where a rule exists, follow the rule, do not improvise. Every named mistake below is one that actually happened or nearly happened here.

What this is

QASkills.sh is a QA-skills directory for AI coding agents ("npm for QA skills"). pnpm monorepo (pnpm 9.15.0, Node >= 20 locally, production on Node 24.x, Turborepo). Solo-founder operation: work lands directly on main, ships to production the same day, and growth is SEO-driven. The three recurring jobs, by frequency:

  1. Publish SEO articles (near-daily batches of 10) -> use project skill publish-seo-batch
  2. Add seed skills to the catalog -> use project skill add-seed-skills
  3. Deploy to production on Vercel -> use project skill ship-prod

Project skills live in .claude/skills/. If a task matches one, follow the skill, not memory.

Conventions (non-negotiable)

Writing (everything: chat, commits, docs, article content, code comments):

  • Never use em dashes. Use a comma, period, colon, parentheses, or "->". En dashes for ranges (Jul 14-19) are fine. Before finishing any writing deliverable, run a literal grep for the em dash character and fix hits.

Git:

  • Conventional commits, imperative mood: feat:, fix:, docs(scope):, chore:. Match the style in git log.
  • No Co-Authored-By: trailers. No "Generated with Claude Code" footers. Commits must look like normal human commits.
  • Commit directly to main (repo norm, no PR ceremony). One concern per commit.
  • Never git add -A, git add ., or git commit -a from the repo root. The root is littered with unrelated artifacts (screenshots, evaldog-app/, qabuddy/, one-off strategy docs). Stage explicit paths only, and review git diff --cached --stat before committing.
  • Pre-existing working-tree changes and untracked files are someone's WIP. Never stash, clean, revert, or absorb them into your commit.

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.
