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-repo-triage 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 234 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

GitHub Repo Triage

Phase 1: Reconnaissance

Gather full state before proposing anything.

# Open issues and PRs
gh issue list --state open --limit 50
gh pr list --state open --limit 50

# Forks (spot community work not submitted as PRs)
gh api repos/{owner}/{repo}/forks --jq '.[].full_name' --paginate

# Recent releases
gh release list --limit 5

# Branches
git branch -a

Present findings as a ranked table with tiers:

Tier Criteria
1 - Critical Security issues, data loss, broken CI
2 - High Bugs affecting users, ready-to-merge PRs
3 - Medium Feature PRs needing rework, enhancements
4 - Low Nice-to-have, docs, cosmetic
5 - Close Won't-fix, stale, already resolved

Phase 2: PR Assessment

For each open PR, evaluate before touching code:

  1. Read the diff: gh pr diff <N>
  2. Check quality: syntax errors, missing error handling, debug logging, unrelated changes mixed in
  3. Check base: is it against current HEAD or a stale branch?
  4. Check tests: does it include tests? Do they follow existing patterns?
  5. Check author info: gh api repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls/<N>/commits --jq '.[].commit.author'

Decision Matrix

Quality Tests Action
Good, clean Yes Cherry-pick as-is with attribution
Good logic, minor issues Yes/No Cherry-pick, fix issues, add tests
Good idea, bad implementation No Rewrite from scratch, credit author
Broken or wrong approach N/A Close with explanation

Phase 3: Cherry-Pick Workflow

When manually integrating a PR (not using GitHub merge):

# 1. Make the code changes (edit files directly, don't git cherry-pick)
# 2. Add tests if missing
# 3. Run the test suite
# 4. Stage only the relevant files
git add <files>

# 5. Commit with attribution and auto-close
git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF'
feat: description of what was added

Longer explanation if needed.

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.
