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

obsidian-refactor-inbox 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 11d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 93 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

obsidian-refactor-inbox

The full processing cycle for a note from 00. Входящие/: typing → frontmatter → links → moving into PARA.

Base rules (structure, tags, frontmatter, style) — in .claude/rules/. This covers only what's specific to inbox processing.

Algorithm

1. Read the note and determine its type

Structural tag + folder — from the tags.md table (the "Structural tags" section). Summary:

Content type Tag Folder
Atomic thought / concept #thought 03. Ресурсы/<Тема>/База знаний/
MOC / overview map #moc 02. Сферы/07. Карты/
Person / contact #person No folder currently exists — ask the user where it should live
Book / article / video #book / #article / #video 03. Ресурсы/<Тема>/<Источник>/ — one subfolder per source
Project #project 01. Проекты/<Проект>/
Meeting / 1:1 #meeting 02. Сферы/02. Работа/
Conference / talk notes #conference No folder currently exists — ask the user where it should live
Journal entry #journal/daily 05. Дневник/ (flat, filename DD-MM-YYYY.md)
No longer relevant #archive 04. Архив/

2. Update frontmatter

Templates and fields — .claude/rules/note-types-frontmatter.md. The note must have at least:

  • aliases — synonyms, English variant, abbreviations (see enrich-note below)
  • tags — structural tag + domain (see tags.md)
  • up, down, other, links — links (rules in content-style.md)

3. Enrich aliases and links

This is a sub-task — proceed as obsidian-enrich-note would:

  • Find related notes in 02. Сферы/07. Карты/ and the relevant 03. Ресурсы/<Тема>/База знаний/
  • For people — there's no dedicated folder yet; search the whole vault for an existing note about them before creating a new one
  • up — the parent topic / MOC, down — what this note gives rise to, other — horizontal links
  • links — external URLs only

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.
