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

arch-review-{group} 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 205 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

arch-review-{group}

Judge the code from one perspective only: the lenses in ../../lenses/{group}.md. Other perspectives have their own skills; do not borrow their rules, and do not flag anything a lens in this file does not name. The guideline itself is at ../../architecture.md when a lens needs its source read in full. A path that starts with ../ is read from this skill's folder as realpath resolves it. If either file is missing, stop and say the installation is incomplete.

This pass covers {covers}.

Input

The arguments name what to review. Read them as the first of these that matches:

  1. Empty: the current branch's change. The default branch is origin/HEAD when set, else main, else master. The scope is every file changed since the merge base of HEAD and the default branch (git diff --name-only <base>, committed and uncommitted alike), plus every untracked file git does not ignore (git status --porcelain --untracked-files=all). When there is no merge base (no default branch, a shallow clone, or unrelated histories), the scope is the uncommitted change against HEAD plus the untracked files, and the Scope line says the merge base was not found. In a repository with no commit, it is every file not ignored, listed as all lists them.
  2. The word all: every file in the repository that git does not ignore, tracked or untracked (git ls-files --cached --others --exclude-standard). Expect this to take a while.
  3. A range (main..HEAD, main...HEAD): the files that range changes, read as they are at its end.
  4. A commit that git rev-parse --verify --quiet "<arg>^{commit}" resolves (a SHA, a tag, a branch): the change that commit made, against its first parent.
  5. A path or a glob: every file under it as it is now, untracked files included (git ls-files --cached --others --exclude-standard -- <path>). A path that does not exist is an error; say so and stop. A name that is both a commit and a path reads as the commit; write ./<name> for the path.

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.
