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

tracking-time 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 10d 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.

What it actually says

Tracking Time

Workflow

  1. Identify the task

    Confirm which task to track time for. Use astravue_list_project_tasks or astravue_find_tasks to locate the task ID.

  2. Check for active timers

    Always call astravue_get_active_timers before starting a new timer — only one timer can run at a time per user.

  3. Log time

    Choose the method that fits:

    • astravue_start_timer / astravue_stop_timer — real-time tracking
    • astravue_log_manual_time — log a duration with a start time
    • astravue_log_time_range — log a start-to-end time range
  4. Review entries

    • astravue_get_task_time_entries — entries for a specific task
    • astravue_get_project_time_summary — billable vs non-billable totals
    • astravue_get_project_time_entries — detailed entries grouped by member
    • astravue_get_timesheet_report — global report grouped by member or project
  5. Delete entries

    Use astravue_delete_time_entry only after confirming with the user. This cannot be undone.

Important

  • Time values from the API are in milliseconds — convert to hours and minutes for display
  • Only set billable or notes when the user explicitly provides them
  • Present reports with billable ratio and per-member breakdown

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.
