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

standup-writer 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 — 86 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

When to use this skill

Use it when the user needs to report what they got done, sourced from their real activity rather than memory:

  • "Write my standup" / "my update for the sync" / "what do I say in standup?"
  • "Status update for my manager" / "weekly update for my team"
  • "What did I get done this week?" / "recap my week"
  • "Draft my Done / Doing / Blockers" or "Progress / Plans / Problems"
  • Any request to turn a period of work into a short, honest status post.

Do not use it to post the update automatically (see the safety rules), and do not use it to write a report the sources can't support. This skill reports what happened. It does not manufacture a week.

What it needs (setup)

This skill reads three activity sources. It works with whichever are connected, and it says which ones it used.

  • Slack or Microsoft Teams: reads the user's own recent messages so it can see what they reported shipping, the decisions they logged, and the questions they raised. Read-only. It cannot post the finished update anywhere without an explicitly approved send path.
  • Google Calendar or Microsoft 365: lists the meetings in the window. A calendar entry proves a meeting was scheduled, not that the user attended it or what came out of it (see the limits below).
  • Notion: reads a tasks database the user points to, for items moved to Done / In Progress / Blocked in the window.
  • Linear (optional): there is no assumed first-party Linear connector here. If the user runs Linear over an MCP server, this skill will read completed issues from it. If not, it falls back to Notion, or asks the user to paste their closed issues. Be honest about this rather than pretending Linear is wired.

If a source the user expects is not connected, name it and carry on with the rest. Never fabricate activity to fill the gap.

The honest limit this skill is built around

Every one of these sources records activity, not achievement, and none of them is a complete record. Slack search is scoped: it returns what the connector is authorised to see and will miss private DMs and channels it is not in, so a "no results" is not proof the user did nothing. A calendar shows a meeting was booked, not that it happened or what was decided. A task marked Done tells you a status changed, not what the outcome was worth. So this skill pulls the signals, shows what it actually found, and leaves everything it could not evidence as a [NEEDS: …] gap. It never rounds activity up into an accomplishment.

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.
