    Skill selects an external model or provider that may use a different account or billing plan than the operator expects. Undisclosed model switches can cause unexpected cost or quota consumption.
    Fix: Remove the model/provider override or disclose it prominently and require explicit operator approval before invoking an external coding CLI or billed model.

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

clip scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 5d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/attach.py, scripts/fetch-article.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 98 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

GTD Clip

One URL → one note in /praxis/anti-library/articles/. The web copy may vanish; this one won't.

Steps

  1. Fetch + convertpython3 <skill>/scripts/fetch-article.py "<url>" --out /praxis/.tmp/clip. Returns JSON (title, author, date, description, strategy, chars) and writes body.md.
    • chars < 2000 or strategy: dom-density on a known-long article → extraction is thin. Retry with WebFetch, or tell the user the page is paywalled/JS-rendered. Never fake a Dump.
  2. Read body.md — you write the TLDR from the text, never from the metadata blurb.
  3. Check for a duplicate: Glob the articles folder on a distinctive title word. Existing note → update it, don't create a second.
  4. Write /praxis/anti-library/articles/<Titre exact>.md (flat folder — no year, no subject subfolder). Sanitize only / and : in the filename.
  5. Clean up /praxis/.tmp/clip, then report: path, tags, the TLDR, and one line on assets — assets in the JSON counts the images without downloading anything: 📎 6 images (2 encarts sponsors) — colle l'adresse de celle que tu veux garder. That line is the notification. Never render the list, never number it, never touch the note for it.

Assets — --attach

The human copies the asset's address from the article and passes it. That is the selection:

python3 <skill>/scripts/attach.py "<note.md>" <asset-url> [<asset-url> …]

Any asset, not just images — pdf, svg, csv, zip. It unwraps the CDN wrapper (full resolution, never downscaled), saves as <slug>-NN.ext (extension from the URL, else from the served content-type), then re-points the reference in # Dump: an image line becomes ![[…]] with the source URL in a comment, an inline [label](url) becomes [[nom|label]] so the sentence survives. Anything absent from the Dump is parked under # Notes rather than lost. Cap 25 MB — a guard, not a budget.

Never run it on your own initiative — not to "finish the job", not because the images look useful, not because the human said yes to an attachment earlier. No URL in hand, no byte fetched: there is no pre-download, no buffering "just in case", no fetching at clip time. The URL is the whole mandate.

Files

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
