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

qa-review 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 4d 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 — 160 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Code Review

Objective

Identify quality, security, and maintainability issues BEFORE merge.

Native features first

Claude Code ships a native /code-review that owns the review execution: effort levels from low to max, --fix to apply findings, --comment to post inline PR comments, and ultra for a multi-agent cloud review. Prefer it to run the review.

This skill's delta is the conventions the review is held to — the checklist below (incl. the substance-check.sh gate native review does not run), the naming tables, and the severity taxonomy. Use them to brief or grade a native /code-review run, or as the manual protocol where the native command is unavailable.

Instructions

1. Overview

# View the changes
git diff main...HEAD --stat
git log main...HEAD --oneline

2. Review checklist

Code quality
  • Readability (clear names, short functions)
  • DRY (no duplication)
  • SOLID (single responsibility)
  • Reasonable complexity
  • No over-engineering (YAGNI: no speculative options/abstraction; could a stdlib/native/one-liner replace custom code?)
Typing (TypeScript)
  • No any
  • Explicit types on public APIs
  • Well-defined interfaces
Tests
  • Tests present and relevant
  • Edge cases covered
  • Mocks limited to I/O
  • Substance: no hollow tests / stubs — run ./scripts/substance-check.sh <changed-files> (flags no-assertion / always-true / skipped / empty / stub; a green suite over hollow tests is not "done")
Security
  • Inputs validated
  • No hardcoded secrets
  • No injection possible
Performance
  • No N+1 queries
  • No possible infinite loops
  • Memory managed correctly

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
