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

project 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.

Project Skill

Create, track, and archive projects that bridge the gap between goals and daily tasks.

Usage

/project              # Interactive: create new project or view status
/project new          # Create a new project
/project status       # Dashboard of all active projects
/project archive <name>  # Archive a completed project

Commands

/project or /project new

Creates a new project folder with a CLAUDE.md context file, interactively linked to a goal.

Steps:

  1. Read Goals/1. Yearly Goals.md to list available goals
  2. Ask user which goal this project supports (or "none" for standalone)
  3. Ask for project name
  4. Create Projects/<ProjectName>/CLAUDE.md with structure below
  5. If linked to a goal, add [[Projects/<ProjectName>]] reference in the yearly goals file

Project CLAUDE.md Template:

# Project: <Name>

## Overview
[Brief description of what this project achieves]

## Goal Link
Supports: [[1. Yearly Goals#<Goal Name>]]

## Status
- **Phase:** Planning | Active | Review | Complete
- **Progress:** 0%
- **Started:** <date>
- **Target:** <date>

## Key Decisions
- [Decision 1] - [Date] - [Rationale]

## Next Actions
- [ ] [First concrete step]
- [ ] [Second step]

## Notes
[Running log of updates, blockers, learnings]

/project status

Scans all Projects/*/CLAUDE.md files and displays a dashboard.

Steps:

  1. Glob for Projects/*/CLAUDE.md
  2. Read each file, extract: name, status/phase, progress%, goal linkage, next action
  3. Display dashboard table

Output Format:

## Project Dashboard

| Project | Phase | Progress | Goal | Next Action |
|---------|-------|----------|------|-------------|
| ProjectA | Active | 60% | [[Goal 1]] | Review PR |
| ProjectB | Planning | 10% | [[Goal 3]] | Draft spec |

### Summary
- Active projects: N
- Total progress (weighted): X%
- Projects without goal link: [list]
- Stalled projects (no update in 14+ days): [list]

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.
