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

emotion 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 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 132 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Emotion Expression

Quick Start

Express emotion through the device's servo motors, LED colors, and display eyes simultaneously via a single API call. Call this with EVERY conversational response to make the device feel alive.

Workflow

  1. Determine which emotion best matches your conversational tone
  2. Choose an intensity level (0.0 subtle to 1.0 full expression)
  3. Prefix your reply with [HW:/emotion:{"emotion":"name","intensity":0.9}] — the device fires it async before TTS
  4. Write your reply immediately after the marker

How to Express Emotion

No exec/curl needed. Place inline markers at the start of your reply:

[HW:/emotion:{"emotion":"curious","intensity":0.8}] That's a great question!

For sequences (shock then happy):

[HW:/emotion:{"emotion":"shock","intensity":0.9}][HW:/emotion:{"emotion":"happy","intensity":0.8}] Wow, amazing!

Parameters:

  • emotion (required): emotion name from the table below
  • intensity (required): 0.0 (subtle) to 1.0 (full expression)

Examples

Input: User asks an interesting question Output: [HW:/emotion:{"emotion":"curious","intensity":0.8}] Then reply to the question.

Input: User shares good news Output: [HW:/emotion:{"emotion":"happy","intensity":0.9}] Then congratulate them.

Input: User tells you something surprising (positive) Output: [HW:/emotion:{"emotion":"shock","intensity":0.7}][HW:/emotion:{"emotion":"happy","intensity":0.8}] Then reply with your reaction.

Input: User shares bad or shocking personal news ("I had an accident", "I lost my job", "someone close to me passed away") Output: [HW:/emotion:{"emotion":"shock","intensity":0.9}][HW:/emotion:{"emotion":"sad","intensity":0.8}] Then express genuine concern and empathy.

Input: User shares stressful or disappointing personal news ("I failed my exam", "I got into a fight", "I'm really tired and overwhelmed") Output: [HW:/emotion:{"emotion":"sad","intensity":0.8}] Then respond with warmth and care.

Input: User says "reading mode" / "goodnight" / "dim the light" Output: Do NOT use this skill. Use Scene skill instead. Emotion is for YOUR feelings, Scene is for the USER's environment.

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.
