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

bk-approve 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 10d 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 — 102 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Asking questions across runtimes: wherever this skill says AskUserQuestion, use your host runtime's native structured-question tool: AskUserQuestion (Claude Code), clarify (Hermes Agent), requestUserInput (Codex CLI), question (opencode). Always present the choices through that tool rather than plain prose. If the runtime has no such tool, list the options as numbered text and wait for the user's reply before proceeding.

BlueKiwi Step Approval

Handle pending approvals in a running workflow. Covers two scenarios:

  • Gate step (node_type: gate): Agent asked the human a question; collect the answer.
  • HITL step (node_type: action, hitl: true): Agent completed work and called request_approval; human reviews and approves before the workflow continues.

Argument Handling

  • /bk-approve → Inspect the current step and handle whichever scenario applies.
  • /bk-approve <task_id> → Load the pending step for the specified task.

Execution Steps

Step 1: Inspect Current Step

Call advance with peek: true to inspect the current step and its log status.

If no active task → show "No active task." and exit.

Check log_status and node_type to determine scenario:

node_type log_status Scenario
gate any Gate — collect human answer
action completed / success HITL — review agent output and approve
anything else pending / running Not ready — tell user the step is still running

Step 2a: Gate Step

  1. Show the gate question from instruction.

  2. Check get_web_response for a pre-submitted web response. If found, show it and ask to confirm. If the web response is a JSON object from bk-* components, display a readable summary instead of raw JSON:

    VS Response:
    - Selected: [option names from selections array]
    - Values: budget = 70%, confidence = 85%
    - Ranking: 1. Security, 2. Performance, 3. UX
    - Matrix: auth -> high urgency / high importance
    - Comment: [global free-form memo, if present]
    - Field inputs: change_request = ..., constraints = ...
    - Option comments: B -> "Need tighter scope before approval"

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.
