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

time-blocking-scheduler 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 11d 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.

Time Blocking & Scheduling Assistant

What It Does

Designs a personalized time management system that aligns your energy patterns, priorities, and obligations into focused blocks. Instead of running on reactive mode (email → Slack → urgent request → oh look it's 5 PM), you get a repeatable daily structure optimized for deep work, creative flow, and sustainable energy.


Core Concepts

The Time Blocking Spectrum

Free-form          Time-blocked        Time-boxed
(no structure)     (planned hours)     (hard constraints)
     │                   │                    │
     │    Reactive       │    Intentional     │    Rigid
     │    Chaotic        │    Flexible        │    Brittle
     └───────────────────┴────────────────────┘

Target: Time-blocked (with guardrails). Enough structure to protect focus, enough flexibility to handle reality.

Block Types

Block Duration Purpose Energy Level Interruptions
Deep Work 90-120 min Creative, strategic, writing, coding, design High None (airplane mode)
Light Work 30-60 min Email, Slack, admin, scheduling Low Permitted
Meeting/Connect 25-50 min Calls, 1:1s, client meetings Medium Expected
Recharge 15-30 min Walk, stretch, meditate, nap Restore None
Buffer 15-30 min Transition, overflow, unexpected tasks Any Welcome
Batching 60-120 min Similar tasks grouped (e.g., all content creation) Medium-High Minimized

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.
