Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00024 | $0.00633 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00253 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00127 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00063 |
Grade A, and why
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 1mo 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 — 81 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Project Status Dashboard
Gather data from all available sources and present a structured status dashboard.
Data Collection
Collect the following in parallel where possible:
1. Task Queue (MCP tools)
- Call
task_listto get all tasks with their status, priority, and assignments - Call
task_get_nextto get the next actionable task - Compute counts by status:
todo,analysing,analysed,in-progress,done,needs-input,skipped
2. Session State (MCP tool)
- Call
session_get_stateto get current session info (if an active session exists)
3. Git Status (shell)
- Run
git status --shortto check working tree cleanliness - Run
git log --oneline -5to show recent commits - Run
git branch --show-currentto identify the current branch
4. Verification Gates (shell)
- Run
pwsh .bot/hooks/verify/00-privacy-scan.ps1— privacy/secrets scan - Run
pwsh .bot/hooks/verify/01-git-clean.ps1— working tree cleanliness
Presentation Format
Present results as a structured dashboard:
## Task Queue
| Status | Count |
|--------------|-------|
| todo | N |
| analysed | N |
| in-progress | N |
| done | N |
| needs-input | N |
## Next Up
<Highest priority task in `todo` or `analysed` status — show ID, title, priority>
## Currently Active
<Any tasks in `analysing` or `in-progress` status — show ID, title, assignee>
## Blocked / Needs Input
<Tasks in `needs-input` status — show ID, title, reason>
## Session
<Active session info, or "No active session">
## Git Status
Branch: <branch>
Clean: <yes/no>
Recent commits:
<last 5 commits>
## Verification
- Privacy scan: PASS/FAIL
- Git clean: PASS/FAIL
## Suggestions
<Actionable next steps based on the current state, e.g.:
- "3 tasks are analysed and ready for implementation"
- "1 task needs input — review task T-XXXXXXXX"
- "Working tree has uncommitted changes — commit or stash before starting next task">
Rules
- Read-only: Do not modify any state, tasks, or files
- Show all statuses: Include zero-count rows so the full picture is visible
- Be honest: If an MCP tool or hook fails, report the error rather than hiding it
- Actionable suggestions: Always end with 1-3 concrete next steps based on what the data shows
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.
- 1mo ago First seen · 81 lines · 24 tokens per session scan A 1621600786cd
status is a skill published in the GitHub repository andresharpe/dotbot (52 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 24 tokens to every session and 633 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
