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.

ModelPer sessionOnce invoked
Fable 5.1 $0.00265 $0.02063
Opus 5 $0.00133 $0.01032
Sonnet 5 $0.00053 $0.00413
Haiku 4.5 $0.00026 $0.00206

Security

Grade A, and why

anything-to-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 12d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (a2md.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Video Intelligent Routing (NEW)

Videos are processed through a smart 4-phase pipeline:

PROBE → DECIDE → EXTRACT → FUSE

Phase 1: PROBE (< 5 seconds)

  • ffprobe: Detect embedded subtitle tracks, audio streams
  • Sidecar detection: Check for .srt/.vtt files
  • Sample frame OCR: Extract 5 frames, run quick OCR to detect on-screen text

Phase 2: DECIDE - Choose optimal strategy

Video Type Strategy Description
Has embedded subtitles embedded_subtitle Extract with ffmpeg, parse SRT
Has sidecar .srt/.vtt sidecar_subtitle Parse external subtitle file
Audio + on-screen text hybrid faster-whisper + frame OCR
Pure audio (podcast) audio_transcribe faster-whisper transcription
PPT recording / tutorial visual_ocr Scene detection + keyframe OCR
Unknown / mixed full_pipeline Run all extraction methods

Phase 3: EXTRACT

  • Subtitles: ffmpeg extraction → SRT parsing
  • Audio: faster-whisper (4x faster than OpenAI Whisper)
  • Frames: PySceneDetect for scene changes + perceptual hash deduplication
  • OCR: RapidOCR (PaddleOCR models + ONNX runtime)

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
