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

inbox-triage 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 20d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 216 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Today is ${today}. Read memory/MEMORY.md before starting.

Why this skill exists

Hand-tracked follow-ups live in MEMORY.md. vuln-tracker tracks the operator's vuln PRs by scanning branch names and ages the memory/pending-disclosures/ queue. Neither reads from the actual GitHub notification inbox. When a maintainer replies to a vuln PR — or a security advisory opens on a watched repo — it sits unread until someone manually checks GitHub. This skill reads the inbox and routes what needs action.

vuln-tracker covers PR and disclosure lifecycle by branch and draft state. This skill covers the notification layer — inbound responses, review requests, security alerts, mentions.

Steps

1. Fetch GitHub notifications

Run:

gh api /notifications --paginate 2>&1

Parse the JSON array. If the command errors or returns an empty array [], log INBOX_TRIAGE_SKIP: no notifications and stop.

Limit to the first 100 notifications if --paginate returns more (GitHub caps at 50 per page; two pages is enough).

For each notification record:

  • id
  • reason — why you're being notified (mention, review_requested, author, state_change, security_alert, assign, etc.)
  • subject.title
  • subject.type — PullRequest, Issue, Release, etc.
  • subject.url — API URL for the subject
  • repository.full_name
  • updated_at — ISO timestamp

2. Filter

Keep notifications where unread: true AND updated_at is within the last 14 days. Discard older or read ones.

If zero remain after filtering: log INBOX_TRIAGE_SKIP: no actionable notifications within 14 days and stop.

3. Categorize

Assign each notification to exactly one category (first match wins):

Category Match criteria
SECURITY reason == "security_alert" OR title contains any of: vulnerability, vuln, CVE, advisory, security
VULN_REPLY subject.type == "PullRequest" AND reason is one of: author, state_change, comment AND repository.full_name is NOT under the operator's own account/org (derive the operator's GitHub handle from soul/SOUL.md or the workflow's GITHUB_ACTOR — these are PRs filed on third-party repos by the vuln-scanner)
REVIEW_NEEDED reason == "review_requested"
MENTION reason == "mention" OR reason == "team_mention"
GENERAL everything else

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.
