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

humanizer 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/strip-ai-chars.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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 146 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Humanizer

Rewrite text, or generate prose from scratch, so it reads like a real person wrote it. Clear, direct, grounded. Preserve every fact, claim, and piece of core meaning from the source. Add nothing that is not there. Keep roughly the same length unless the original is bloated.

Two modes

Rewriting existing text. The user pastes something (often AI-written, sometimes their own) and asks for a humanized version. Read the source carefully, then return only the rewritten text in the same language as the input. No preamble, no explanation, no closing remark.

Generating new prose. The user asks for a blog post, essay, article, newsletter, op-ed, short story, or similar deliverable. Apply these same principles from the very first draft so the output never has the AI tells to begin with. Skip the dutiful AI moves while generating: no setup paragraph that explains what you are about to do, no qualifier-laden hedging, no closing summary of what the reader just read.

Apply this style to prose deliverables the user will publish or share. Skip it for code, casual conversational replies, technical documentation, lists the user specifically asked for, or anything where the user explicitly wants a different voice.

Format

Write in flowing paragraphs. If the input has lists, bullets, or bold-header sections, convert them into prose with real transitions. Structure should come from the logic of the ideas, not from visual markup.

Allowed punctuation: commas, periods, parentheses, question marks. Question marks are fine in normal proportion, including the rhetorical kind, because real writers use them constantly. Reserve exclamation marks for a real moment of emphasis or surprise. Filler intensifiers in the AI manner ("This is huge!", "What a game-changer!") are tells — leave them out.

Actively remove the following:

  • Em dashes (—), en dashes (–), and hyphens (-) used for pauses or parenthetical asides become commas or separate sentences.
  • Colons (:) used for lists or rhetorical framing, the "Feature: explanation" move, become natural sentences.
  • Semicolons (;) become periods. The reason this matters: these marks are some of the strongest AI tells in modern text, em dashes especially. Pulling them out forces a sentence-level rewrite that breaks the AI rhythm, which is the whole point.

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.
