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

wrangler:startup-checklist 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 9d 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.

Startup Checklist Skill

Skill Usage Announcement

MANDATORY: When using this skill, announce it at the start with:

🔧 Using Skill: wrangler:startup-checklist | [brief purpose based on context]

Example:

🔧 Using Skill: wrangler:startup-checklist | [Provide context-specific example of what you're doing]

This creates an audit trail showing which skills were applied during the session.

Purpose

Run automatically on session start to ensure project is using current wrangler version. Detects breaking changes and provides clear upgrade path.

When to Use

This skill runs automatically via session hooks. DO NOT manually invoke unless debugging version detection.

Auto-execution: Triggered by hooks/session-start.sh after workspace initialization.

Workflow

Phase 1: Read Project Version

Goal: Determine which version of wrangler the project is currently using.

  1. Locate Constitution File

    Check locations in priority order:

    # Priority 1: New location (v1.1.0+)
    if [ -f ".wrangler/governance/CONSTITUTION.md" ]; then
      PROJECT_CONSTITUTION=".wrangler/governance/CONSTITUTION.md"
    
    # Priority 2: Legacy location (v1.0.0)
    elif [ -f "specifications/_CONSTITUTION.md" ]; then
      PROJECT_CONSTITUTION="specifications/_CONSTITUTION.md"
    
    # No constitution found
    else
      echo "⚠️ No constitution found. Initialize governance first."
      echo "   Run: /wrangler:initialize-governance"
      exit with WARN status
    fi
    
  2. Extract Version from Frontmatter

    Read YAML frontmatter and extract wranglerVersion field:

    ---
    wranglerVersion: "1.1.0"
    lastUpdated: "2025-11-18"
    ---
    

    Fallback behavior:

    • If wranglerVersion field missing → Assume v1.0.0 (pre-versioning era)
    • If frontmatter entirely missing → Assume v1.0.0
    • If file exists but is empty → WARN and exit
  3. Validate Version Format

    Ensure version follows semantic versioning (e.g., "1.1.0", "2.0.0"):

    • Pattern: MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH
    • Valid: "1.0.0", "1.1.0", "2.0.0"
    • Invalid: "1", "1.1", "v1.0.0", "latest"

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.
