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

apple-hig-feedback-status 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.

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.

Apple HIG Feedback Status

Use this skill when designing or implementing feedback, status, progress, alerts, errors, success states, and live activity indicators in Apple-platform apps. It covers running states, task progress, model status, local server status, notifications, toasts, banners, inline errors, loading states, and completion feedback.

Core rule

Always tell the user what is happening, what changed, and whether they need to act.

Status vocabulary

Use consistent states:

Idle
Thinking
Running
Waiting
Blocked
Needs Review
Completed
Failed
Offline
Paused
Cancelled

  • Task failed
  • Ollama not running
  • API key missing
  • Permission denied
  • File operation succeeded
  • File operation failed
  • Syncing
  • Saving
  • Loading
  • Waiting for user input

Feedback levels

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.
