stick

stick is a skill for Codex from crimx/skills. It costs 23 tokens per session (780 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A memory aid that turns supplied material into a short structure that is easier to recall. It keeps the original meaning and may add one clearly marked cue.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to memorise a definition, command, process, or other supplied text.
Why use it?
It removes unnecessary explanation and related detail when the goal is simply to remember specific material.

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

stick 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 23d 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 — 50 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Stick

Make the supplied material easy to recall.

The supplied material is the target. Do not turn the response into a general explanation, reference entry, or open-ended lesson. Build the shortest useful path back to that target, then stop.

Core method

  1. State the target's core meaning or function in one short sentence.
  2. Preserve the target's own structure and expose only the distinctions needed to remember it.
  3. Add one compact memory cue when it improves retrieval. Accuracy comes first: a cue may use sound, spelling, contrast, an image, or a causal link, but an invented association must be clearly labeled as a mnemonic and never presented as factual origin or meaning.
  4. Add background only when it directly explains a confusing part or strengthens the memory cue. Do not add related facts, use cases, warnings, history, comparisons, or extensions merely because they are relevant.
  5. Stop when the target can be recalled. Do not fill a template or add optional sections for completeness.

Commands and syntax

Start with what the whole command does. Then read it left to right and preserve meaningful syntax units.

For each abbreviation, show:

token expansion function
<token> ... what this part does

In expansion, bold only the letters that actually map to the full words. Map them in their actual order, including multiple letters drawn from one word; the mapping need not be one letter per word. Keep a flag with the value it governs when they form one filter or selector. Do not split a compound argument into artificial rows. Keep the bold markers outside code spans so they render. Do not repeat the letter mapping in function.

Use the table only when it makes the command easier to remember. Do not add grammar diagrams, alternative commands, or nearby variations unless the user asks for them.

Words and terminology

Start with the word's meaning in the supplied context. When the target is a word or term, check its real formation before inventing a memory cue:

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.
