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

groove-utilities-check scanned grade A 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 2mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/check.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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

What it actually says

groove-utilities-check

Bash fast-path

This skill has a bash script at scripts/check.sh. Run it directly for faster, model-free execution:

bash .agents/skills/groove-utilities-check/scripts/check.sh

If the script exits 0, report its stdout and stop — do not continue with the steps below. If it exits non-zero or bash is unavailable, continue with the markdown steps.

Outcome

The latest published groove version is compared against the installed version. If a newer version is available, the user is clearly notified with the upgrade command.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Latest tag is fetched from GitHub
  • Installed version (from skills/groove/SKILL.md) is compared against latest tag
  • If behind: user sees "⚠ New version of groove available: v (installed: v) — run: /groove-admin-update"
  • If up to date: user sees "groove is up to date (v)"
  • .groove/.cache/last-version-check is updated to today's date after check runs

Constraints

  • Fetch latest release tag from: https://api.github.com/repos/andreadellacorte/groove/releases/latest
  • If the API call fails (no network, rate limit): skip silently — do not error
  • Compare version strings as semver (strip leading v before comparing)
  • Always write today's date to .groove/.cache/last-version-check after a successful API call
  • If .groove/.cache/ does not exist, skip the date update
Files

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.

Changes

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.
