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

apple-calendar 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 5d 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 — 126 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

apple-calendar

Read Apple Calendar from the terminal via icalBuddy (read-only) and create events through osascript AppleScript against Calendar.app. Calendars sync across Apple devices through iCloud.

Setup check (lazy — do NOT probe every turn)

Do not run a --version probe before each request. Just run the calendar command the user asked for (e.g. icalBuddy eventsToday) directly. Only when a command fails map the error to a Setup playbook branch:

  • stderr mentions command not found: icalBuddySetup playbook → "icalBuddy is not installed".
  • a read returns nothing and stderr mentions calendar access / not authorized → Setup playbook → "Calendar permission missing".
  • macOS not detected (e.g. uname returns Linux) → reply that this skill is macOS-only and stop. Do NOT try to install anything.

If unsure which branch applies, capture stderr and ask the user before proceeding.

Setup playbook (when prerequisites are missing)

When a check fails, OFFER concrete help and EXECUTE the fix yourself — do not dump install instructions on the user.

icalBuddy is not installed

Reply (solo reply step):

"The icalBuddy utility is not installed. I can install it via Homebrew (brew install ical-buddy) — it needs your confirmation and takes ~20 seconds. Install it?"

On yes:

[{ "tool": "os.shell.run", "args": { "cmd": "brew", "args": ["install", "ical-buddy"] } }]

After install, retry the original command.

If brew itself is missing, do NOT bootstrap Homebrew automatically — reply: "You don't have Homebrew installed. Install it manually from https://brew.sh/, then I'll continue."

Calendar permission missing

icalBuddy reads Calendar via EventKit; macOS guards this behind Privacy & Security → Calendars. The agent cannot toggle that switch programmatically. Open the panel to help the user:

[{ "tool": "os.shell.run", "args": { "cmd": "open", "args": ["x-apple.systempreferences:com.apple.preference.security?Privacy_Calendars"] } }]

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.
