    Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.
    Fix: Remove any persistence mechanisms (cron jobs, startup scripts, state files). Skills should not maintain state across sessions without explicit user consent.

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

jab-hook 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 10d 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.

/jab-hook — Jab-jab-jab-right-hook for a personal portfolio

Gary Vaynerchuk's framework applied to your configured portfolio: keep the feed mostly jabs (value — BIP + educational) so the hooks (promo) earn attention when they land. Drafts to your personal Typefully workspace.

One-time setup: see references/properties.md and references/typefully-config.md to configure your real portfolio + workspace. Personal config lives in ${MAKERSKILLS_CONFIG:-$HOME/.config/makerskills}/jab-hook/.

Mental model

  • N rotation slots (configured in ~/.config/makerskills/jab-hook/properties.yaml): one per property you want to promote on rotation
  • ~2 promo posts/week → each property cycles every ~3 weeks at equal weight
  • Non-promo days: 50/50 build-in-public vs educational
  • Target weekly rhythm: ~2 promo + ~2–3 BIP + ~2–3 educational
  • Platforms: X + LinkedIn via your personal Typefully workspace

Step 1 — Pick the mode

Detect from the trigger:

User says Mode
"plan my socials," "next week's posts" plan
"what should I post," "next promo," "pick next" pick-next
"audit my socials," "what's overdue," "what haven't I posted about" audit
"draft a promo for X," "BIP post about Y," "educational about Z" draft

If ambiguous, confirm.

Step 2 — Load context

  1. Read references/properties.md — the 6 rotation slots and angle ideas
  2. Read references/voice.md — the user's voice rules per platform
  3. Read references/content-types.md — templates for promo / BIP / educational
  4. Pull recent posts from your personal Typefully workspace:
    • First run: call mcp__typefully__typefully_list_social_sets and ask which social set is your personal (X + LinkedIn). Save the ID to ${MAKERSKILLS_CONFIG:-$HOME/.config/makerskills}/jab-hook/typefully.yaml for future runs (schema in references/typefully-config.example.yaml — never save it inside the skill folder; upgrades wipe it).
    • Call mcp__typefully__typefully_list_drafts filtered to the last 30 days
    • Classify each as promo / BIP / educational by content
  5. Compute days since last promo for each of the 6 slots

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.
