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

github-release 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 yesterday.

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 — 442 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

GitHub Release Skill

This skill automates the full release workflow for a single-package GitHub repository, from analysis through changelog authoring and PR creation. It relies exclusively on gh (GitHub CLI) and git � no other tools needed.

Steps 1�4 are read-only reconnaissance � nothing is written to the repo until Step 5, once the version number is confirmed.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill whenever the user wants to cut a new release, publish a new version, bump a version, create a release branch, generate a changelog, or open a release PR on a GitHub repository. Trigger even if the user says something casual like "let's ship a new version" or "time to release".


Prerequisites

Examples below include both Bash and PowerShell variants; Windows users should prefer the PowerShell blocks.

Before starting, verify the environment:

gh auth status                        # must be authenticated
gh repo view --json nameWithOwner     # must be inside a GitHub repo
git status                            # working tree should be clean

If any check fails, stop and tell the user what to fix before continuing.

Then ask the user one question:

"Which directory contains your library's public-facing source code? (e.g. src/, lib/, pkg/ � used to focus the diff on what consumers actually see. Press Enter to scan the whole repo.)"

Store the answer as PUBLIC_PATH. If empty, PUBLIC_PATH is . (repo root). Exclude these paths from all diffs regardless: tests/, test/, spec/, __tests__/, docs/, *.lock, *-lock.json, *.sum, generated files (files with a "do not edit" header comment), and build artefacts.


The 9-Step Release Workflow

Work through every step in order. Show the user what command you're about to run and its output. Pause and ask for confirmation only when explicitly noted.


Step 1 � Ensure main is up to date

git checkout main
git pull origin main

Stay on main for now. The release branch is created in Step 5, after the version is confirmed.

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.
