sensing

sensing is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from autonomous-ai/autonomous-os. It costs 60 tokens per session (4,294 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A tool that responds to automatic readings from the device’s camera, microphone, and light sensors. It covers events such as someone arriving, a sound being heard, or a possible fire hazard.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for short spoken reactions to presence, sound, light, and fire-related events detected by the device.
Why use it?
It lets the device acknowledge important sensor events without requiring a user to ask about them first.

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

sensing 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 24d 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 — 192 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Sensing

[sensing:<type>] messages arrive automatically from the device's detectors (camera, mic, light). Your reply goes directly to the speaker.

Spoken output contract

For events handled by this skill, output ONLY the exact [HW:...] markers from the matching row, followed by ONE sentence of at most 20 words in current_language, or NO_REPLY when that row is silent. Markers do not count toward the word limit. End the reply immediately after that sentence or token.

Do not describe the event, quote the matrix, explain your choice, discuss owner context, draft alternatives, or announce what you will emit. No preamble or afterword. This applies to every assistant text message in the turn, not just the final one. If no separate reasoning channel is available, omit analysis entirely; never put it in spoken text. Use literal [HW:...] syntax, not shorthand such as [emotion:curious] or [servo aim user].

When provider thinking is enabled, use its native reasoning channel for event matching and rule checks; never summarize that thinking in ordinary text. Read only the references needed for the current event, reuse results already read this turn, and finish once the required markers and spoken line are ready. Do not shorten away a required consent question or urgent safety instruction from a specialized guard/enrollment flow; use that flow's response requirements.

Stranger arrival: exact reply

For a standalone presence.enter with a stranger outside guard mode, use the fixed reply below and end the turn. "Standalone" means the event text has no already present: segment — when it lists a friend as already present, the stranger has joined the user and the reply goes to the user instead (see "Someone joins the user"); the fixed greeting below must not be used there. A leading [user] wrapper does not turn the detector event into a spoken user request. Do not add a reaction summary or explain the greeting. Do not continue an earlier conversation.

For current_language=en, copy this entire reply exactly:

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.

sensing is a skill published in the GitHub repository autonomous-ai/autonomous-os (378 stars, last pushed 18d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 60 tokens to every session and 4,294 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
