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

conducty CLAUDE.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 2mo 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.

Conducty

AI Workflow Orchestrator for Claude Code — systems-level orchestration of agents with per-plan cycles, tracer-first execution, calibrated review, and continuous improvement. The context engine is an Obsidian vault.

The Context Engine

Conducty's plans, designs, project context, improvements, failure patterns, metrics, and prompt logs all live in an Obsidian vault at $CONDUCTY_VAULT (default ~/Obsidian/Conducty/). Every note is wikilinked to its peers — designs link to the plans that consume them, plans link to the context they loaded and the improvements they're testing, failure patterns link to the prompts that surfaced them. Future plans navigate this graph rather than re-grepping a flat history.

Read [[conducty-obsidian]] before reading or writing any state. It defines the vault location, naming, frontmatter, link conventions, and indexes.

[!important] Per plan, not per day Conducty runs per plan, not per day. Multiple plans per day are normal. Plan notes are timestamped: Plan YYYY-MM-DD HHmm [Topic].md. The same applies to designs and improvements. Accumulating notes (Failure Patterns, Metrics, Prompt Log) are singular files appended to over time.

Skills

Claude Code discovers Conducty skills from ~/.claude/skills/ after running ./install-claude-code.sh. Each skill is a folder with a SKILL.md file that Claude loads on demand based on its description trigger.

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.
