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

dependabot-pr-automation 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.

Dependabot PR Automation for chainloop

This skill reviews open Dependabot pull requests, assesses their risk, approves safe ones, and merges them.

Step 1: List Open Dependabot PRs

Use mcp__github__list_pull_requests to fetch open PRs:

  • owner: chainloop-dev
  • repo: chainloop
  • state: open

Filter the results to only include PRs authored by dependabot[bot]. Collect each PR's number, title, head branch, and labels.

If there are no open Dependabot PRs, report that and stop.

Step 2: Assess Risk for Each PR

For each Dependabot PR, determine the risk level using these criteria:

2a. Parse Version Bump from PR Title

Dependabot PR titles follow the pattern: Bump <package> from <old-version> to <new-version>. Extract the old and new versions and classify the bump:

Bump Type Risk Level Criteria
Patch (x.x.OLD → x.x.NEW) Low Only the patch segment changed
Minor (x.OLD.x → x.NEW.x) Medium The minor segment changed
Major (OLD.x.x → NEW.x.x) High The major segment changed

2b. Check CI / Check Status

Use mcp__github__get_pull_request_status to retrieve the CI check status for each PR. A PR is considered CI-passing only if all checks have concluded with a success state.

2c. Inspect the Diff

Use mcp__github__get_pull_request_files to review the files changed. Flag any PR that modifies unexpected files beyond dependency manifests (go.mod, go.sum, package.json, yarn.lock, Dockerfile*, .github/workflows/*).

2d. Identify Dependency Scope

  • Development-only (test frameworks, linters, dev tools) → Lower risk
  • Production (runtime dependencies) → Higher risk
  • GitHub Actions (workflow dependencies) → Typically low risk for minor/patch bumps

2e. Final Risk Matrix

Version Bump CI Passing Only Manifest Files Final Risk Action
Patch Yes Yes Low Auto-approve and merge
Patch No Yes Medium Approve but do not merge
Minor Yes Yes Medium Auto-approve and merge
Minor Yes No High Do not approve
Minor No * High Do not approve
Major * * High Do not approve

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.
