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

skill-reflection 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 1mo 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 Reflection

Use this skill to produce a high-signal retrospective on the current conversation focused on skills: what was used, what was missing, and what would make future runs faster and safer.

Output Contract

Return a short, structured reflection. Prefer bullets over prose.

Include these sections when applicable:

  1. Conversation recap (1–3 bullets): what the user wanted and what happened.
  2. Skills used: list explicitly activated skills and any implicitly-triggered ones (name + evidence).
  3. Skill improvements: actionable recommendations to update existing skills.
  4. New skills to consider: candidates for repeatable workflows discovered in this conversation.
  5. Commands to consider (optional): whether a slash command would reduce friction.

How to Identify Skills Used

  • Explicit usage: look for direct skill activation (for example, skill: <name> tool calls) and commands that instruct activation.
  • Implicit usage: infer from the agent’s behavior and/or command prompts (for example, a commit message workflow likely used commit-messages).
  • If uncertain, say so explicitly (for example, “Likely used general-software-engineering (pattern match), but not explicitly activated”).

How to Recommend Skill Improvements (Keep It General)

Your goal is to improve the skill package, not to solve the one-off task.

When suggesting a change, include:

  • Problem pattern: what repeated friction or failure mode appeared.
  • Proposed change: what to add/remove/clarify in the skill (description triggers, workflow steps, safety constraints, validation commands, templates).
  • Why it helps: how it reduces ambiguity, prevents mistakes, or saves iterations.

Guardrails:

  • Avoid recommendations that are overly specific to a single repo, file path, or one-off request.
  • It’s fine to cite the conversation as an example, but phrase the change as a general technique.
  • Prefer small edits that preserve the skill’s intent and minimize token bloat.
  • If the gap is better solved by a command (argument validation + small context blocks), say so.

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.
