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

git-commit-hotfix 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.

Hotfix Commit and Pull Request Management

This prompt provides specialized commit process for hotfixes with automated documentation updates, code review integration, and pull request management.

🎯 HOTFIX COMMIT OBJECTIVES:

  1. COMMIT hotfix changes with comprehensive documentation and traceability
  2. UPDATE pull request automatically with implementation details
  3. GENERATE automated code review summary and recommendations
  4. VALIDATE final deployment readiness before pushing to remote
  5. COORDINATE team communication and next steps for deployment

📋 PRE-COMMIT VALIDATION:

STEP 1: Final Hotfix Validation

Branch and Environment Verification:
# Verify we're on the correct hotfix branch
CURRENT_BRANCH=$(git branch --show-current)
if [[ ! "$CURRENT_BRANCH" =~ ^hotfix/ ]]; then
    echo "❌ ERROR: Not on a hotfix branch. Current: $CURRENT_BRANCH"
    exit 1
fi

echo "✅ Validated hotfix branch: $CURRENT_BRANCH"

# Extract issue information
ISSUE_ID=$(echo $CURRENT_BRANCH | cut -d'-' -f2)
DESCRIPTION=$(echo $CURRENT_BRANCH | cut -d'-' -f3- | tr '-' ' ')

echo "📋 Issue ID: $ISSUE_ID"
echo "📝 Description: $DESCRIPTION"

# Check for required documentation
HOTFIX_DOC=".hotfix_docs/HOTFIX_${ISSUE_ID}.md"
if [ ! -f "$HOTFIX_DOC" ]; then
    echo "❌ ERROR: Hotfix documentation missing: $HOTFIX_DOC"
    echo "Run git-create-hotfix.mdc first to set up proper documentation"
    exit 1
fi

# Check for review completion
REVIEW_REPORT=".hotfix_docs/REVIEW_REPORT.md"
if [ ! -f "$REVIEW_REPORT" ]; then
    echo "⚠️  WARNING: Review report not found. Run git-review-hotfix.mdc first"
    echo "Proceeding with commit, but review is recommended"
fi
Final Quality Gates:
# Run final test suite
echo "🧪 Running final test validation..."
npm run test
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
    echo "❌ ERROR: Tests failing. Cannot commit hotfix with failing tests."
    exit 1
fi

# Check build
echo "🔨 Verifying build..."
npm run build
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
    echo "❌ ERROR: Build failing. Cannot commit hotfix with build errors."
    exit 1
fi

# Verify no staged changes conflict
if git diff --cached --exit-code > /dev/null; then
    echo "ℹ️  No staged changes detected. Will stage all modified files."
    git add .
fi

echo "✅ Pre-commit validation complete"

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.
