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

push-notification-audit 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 7d 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.

Skill: Push Notification Audit

Purpose

Detects push notification implementations that violate Guideline 4.5.4 — including requesting push permission at launch, using push for unsolicited marketing, and broken notification handling — which are common causes of rejection and post-approval removal.

Apple Guideline

  • Primary: 4.5.4 — Design: Push Notifications
  • Related: 2.1
  • Reference: references/guidelines/4-design.md

Real-World Rejection Cases

  • Case: App requested push notification permission immediately on launch before any user interaction — rejected under 4.5.4 Source: Apple Developer Forums (multiple reports) Root cause: Push permission must be requested in context — at the moment the user encounters a feature that would benefit from notifications. Requesting on first launch with no explanation is treated the same as any other permission abuse and is rejected.

  • Case: App sent daily promotional push notifications unrelated to any user action after users had only granted permission for transactional alerts — rejected on resubmission after user complaints triggered review Source: Apple Developer Forums (Guideline 4.5.4 enforcement) Root cause: Guideline 4.5.4 prohibits using push notifications for advertising, promotions, or direct marketing without explicit user opt-in for those categories — permission for one type of notification does not cover all marketing use cases

  • Case: App used push notifications to display full-screen interstitial ads — rejected Source: Apple Developer Forums Root cause: Push notifications may not be used to display ads — notification content must be relevant to the user's in-app activity or provide utility the user has opted into

Trigger

Invoke on any iOS/macOS project that uses UNUserNotificationCenter or remote push notifications.
