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

feature-flag-guide scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 6d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 378 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Feature Flag Guide Skill

Produce a complete feature flag management guide for a service or team — covering how flags are named and categorised, how to create and roll out a flag safely, what to monitor during rollout, when and how to clean up flags, and who is responsible for each stage. Feature flags without discipline become permanent technical debt. This guide gives the team a repeatable process so flags are created intentionally, rolled out safely, and removed when done.

Required Inputs

Ask for these if not already provided:

  • Service or team name — scope of the guide
  • Feature flag platform — LaunchDarkly, Split, Unleash, Flagsmith, Flipt, or a custom/in-house solution
  • Flag being documented (if writing a per-flag guide) or "general guide" (if writing team-wide policy)
  • Rollout constraints — any compliance, data privacy, or contractual constraints on who can see a feature (e.g. HIPAA, EU-only, enterprise customers only)

Output Format


Feature Flag Management Guide: [Service / Team Name]

Team: [Team name] | Platform: [LaunchDarkly / Split / Unleash / Custom] Document owner: [Name] | Last updated: [Date] Review cycle: Quarterly, and whenever the flag platform changes


1. Flag Taxonomy

Every flag belongs to exactly one category. The category determines default behaviour, who can enable it in production, and when it must be cleaned up.

Type Purpose Default state Production gate Max lifetime
Release flag Controls rollout of a new feature — decouples deploy from release Off Tech lead approval 90 days from feature launch
Experiment flag A/B or multivariate test — measures impact of a change Off (control group) Product + tech lead Duration of experiment + 30 days
Ops flag Operational control — circuit breaker, kill switch, throttle On (normal behaviour) On-call engineer can toggle Indefinite (review annually)
Permission flag Gates access by user segment, tier, or region Off (restricted) Product + Account owner Indefinite (review annually)

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.
