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

daily 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 12d 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.

Daily Workflow Skill

Create Today's Note

/daily

Or simply ask:

  • "Create today's daily note"
  • "Start my morning routine"
  • "Help me with evening shutdown"

Daily Note Creation

What Happens

  1. Checks if today's note exists

    • If yes: Opens the existing note
    • If no: Creates new note from template
  2. Template Processing

    • Replaces {{date}} with today's date
    • Replaces {{date:format}} with formatted dates
    • Handles date arithmetic (e.g., {{date-1}} for yesterday)
  3. Automatic Organization

    • Places note in Daily Notes/ folder
    • Names file with today's date (YYYY-MM-DD.md)
    • Preserves template structure

Template Variables

Your daily template can use:

  • {{date}} - Today's date in default format
  • {{date:dddd}} - Day name (e.g., Monday)
  • {{date:MMMM DD, YYYY}} - Formatted date
  • {{date-1:YYYY-MM-DD}} - Yesterday's date
  • {{date+1:YYYY-MM-DD}} - Tomorrow's date
  • {{time}} - Current time

Morning Routine (5-10 minutes)

Automated Steps

  1. Create today's daily note (if not exists)
  2. Pull incomplete tasks from yesterday
  3. Read this week's ONE Big Thing from Goals/3. Weekly Review.md
  4. Surface active project next-actions from Projects/*/CLAUDE.md
  5. Review weekly goals for today's priority

Cascade Context Surfacing

Before interactive prompts, automatically surface:

  • ONE Big Thing from most recent weekly review
  • Active project next-actions from Projects/*/CLAUDE.md (read "Next Actions" section)
  • Monthly priority from Goals/2. Monthly Goals.md

Display as a brief context block at the top of the morning routine:

### Today's Context
- **Week's ONE Big Thing:** [from weekly review]
- **Active Projects:** [project names with first next-action each]
- **Monthly Focus:** [from monthly goals]

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.
