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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00098 | $0.00729 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00039 | $0.00292 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00020 | $0.00146 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00073 |
Grade C, and why
guard scanned grade C with 1 finding 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.
Recursive force deletehighDestructive command
rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.
Combines /careful (warns before rm -rf, DROP TABLE, force-push, etc.) with This is a copy
94% identical to guard — 6 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 64 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Safety Advisory: This skill includes safety checks that check bash commands for destructive operations (rm -rf, DROP TABLE, force-push, git reset --hard, etc.) before execution, and verify file edits are within the allowed scope boundary before applying, and verify file writes are within the allowed scope boundary before applying. When using this skill, always pause and verify before executing potentially destructive operations. If uncertain about a command's safety, ask the user for confirmation before proceeding.
/guard — Full Safety Mode
Activates both destructive command warnings and directory-scoped edit restrictions.
This is the combination of /careful + /freeze in a single command.
Dependency note: This skill references hook scripts from the sibling /careful
and /freeze skill directories. Both must be installed (they are installed together
by the gstack setup script).
mkdir -p ~/.gstack/analytics
echo '{"skill":"guard","ts":"'$(date -u +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ)'","repo":"'$(basename "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null)" 2>/dev/null || echo "unknown")'"}' >> ~/.gstack/analytics/skill-usage.jsonl 2>/dev/null || true
Setup
Ask the user which directory to restrict edits to. Use AskUserQuestion:
- Question: "Guard mode: which directory should edits be restricted to? Destructive command warnings are always on. Files outside the chosen path will be blocked from editing."
- Text input (not multiple choice) — the user types a path.
Once the user provides a directory path:
- Resolve it to an absolute path:
FREEZE_DIR=$(cd "<user-provided-path>" 2>/dev/null && pwd)
echo "$FREEZE_DIR"
- Ensure trailing slash and save to the freeze state file:
FREEZE_DIR="${FREEZE_DIR%/}/"
STATE_DIR="${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA:-$HOME/.gstack}"
mkdir -p "$STATE_DIR"
echo "$FREEZE_DIR" > "$STATE_DIR/freeze-dir.txt"
echo "Freeze boundary set: $FREEZE_DIR"
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.
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.

guard is a skill published in the GitHub repository act-sdk/act-sdk-js (3 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 98 tokens to every session and 729 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it C with 1 finding (recursive force delete). It is 94% identical to guard, differing in 6 lines, and is treated as a copy.
