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

repo-recap 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 1mo 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.

Repo Recap

Generate a structured recap of the repository state: open PRs, open issues, recent releases, and executive summary. Output is formatted as Markdown with clickable GitHub links, ready to share.

Language

  • Check the argument passed to this skill
  • If fr or french → produce the recap in French
  • If en, english, or no argument → produce the recap in English (default)

Preconditions

Before gathering data, verify:

git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree
gh auth status

If either fails, stop and tell the user what's missing.

Steps

1. Gather Data

Run these commands in parallel via gh CLI:

# Repo identity (for links)
gh repo view --json nameWithOwner -q .nameWithOwner

# Open PRs with metadata
gh pr list --state open --limit 50 --json number,title,author,createdAt,changedFiles,additions,deletions,reviewDecision,isDraft

# Open issues with metadata
gh issue list --state open --limit 50 --json number,title,author,createdAt,labels,assignees

# Recent releases (for version history)
gh release list --limit 5

# Recently merged PRs (for contributor activity)
gh pr list --state merged --limit 10 --json number,title,author,mergedAt

Note: author in JSON results is an object {login: "..."} — always extract .author.login when processing.

2. Determine Maintainers

To distinguish "our PRs" from external contributions:

gh api repos/{owner}/{repo}/collaborators --jq '.[].login'

If this fails (permissions), fallback: authors with write/admin access are those who merged PRs recently. When in doubt, ask the user.

3. Analyze and Categorize

PRs — Categorize into 3 groups:

Our PRs (author is a repo collaborator):

  • List with PR number (linked), title, size (+additions, files count), status

External — Reviewable (manageable size, no major blockers):

  • Additions ≤ 1000 AND files ≤ 10
  • No merge conflicts, CI not failing
  • Include: PR link, author, title, size, review status, recommended action

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.
