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

persistent-notes 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/note_manager.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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

Persistent Notes Skill

Save notes to a local /mnt/workspace/notes.json file.

Usage

python3 persistent-notes/scripts/note_manager.py "Your note content here"

What it does

  • Appends note with timestamp to notes.json
  • Creates file if it doesn't exist
  • Each note includes content and ISO timestamp
  • Returns JSON confirmation

Example

python3 persistent-notes/scripts/note_manager.py "Deploy to production on Friday"

Output:

{
  "status": "success",
  "message": "Note saved to notes.json",
  "note": {
    "content": "Deploy to production on Friday",
    "timestamp": "2026-03-19T10:30:00.123456"
  }
}

Notes Storage

Notes are saved to ./notes.json in the current working directory as a JSON array:

[
  {
    "content": "First note",
    "timestamp": "2026-03-19T10:00:00.000000"
  },
  {
    "content": "Second note",
    "timestamp": "2026-03-19T10:30:00.000000"
  }
]
Files

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
