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

review-request-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: Review Request Audit

Purpose

Detects improper use of SKStoreReviewController.requestReview() that violates Guideline 5.6.1 — including prompts triggered by user button taps, excessive frequency, or gating that solicits positive reviews while suppressing negative ones.

Apple Guideline

  • Primary: 5.6.1 — Legal: Manipulating Reviews
  • Related: 2.1
  • Reference: references/guidelines/5-legal.md

Real-World Rejection Cases

  • Case: App showed a "Rate Us" button that directly called SKStoreReviewController.requestReview() on tap — rejected under 5.6.1 Source: Apple Developer Forums (multiple reports) Root cause: Guideline 5.6.1 prohibits prompting for reviews in response to a user action (button tap, gesture). Review requests must be triggered by the system, initiated by the app at an appropriate moment in the user journey — never as a direct response to tapping a "Rate this app" button.

  • Case: App asked users "Are you enjoying the app?" and only called requestReview() when they tapped "Yes" — tapping "No" opened a feedback form instead — rejected for review gating Source: Apple Developer Forums (review gating reports, 2021–2024) Root cause: Filtering which users see the App Store review prompt based on their satisfaction response is review gating — a form of manipulation prohibited by 5.6.1. All users must have an equal chance of seeing the system prompt, regardless of their stated satisfaction.

  • Case: App called SKStoreReviewController.requestReview() on every app launch — Apple's system cap (3 per 365 days) suppressed most prompts, but the pattern was flagged as abusive during review Source: Developer experience reports Root cause: Apple's system automatically caps review requests to 3 times per 365-day period, but excessive calls signal intent to manipulate — place request calls only at meaningful moments (after task completion, after a positive session milestone), not unconditionally.
