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

switch 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 6d 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 — 120 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Switch Project Context

Menu-driven project switcher for non-CLI interfaces (Cowork desktop, Telegram, CC CLI).

Resolve Workspace Root

Resolution order — use first that succeeds:

  1. $COWORK_ROOT env var
  2. git rev-parse --show-toplevel
  3. Current working directory

If none resolve → abort: ❌ Cannot detect workspace. Set $COWORK_ROOT or run from a git repo.

Store result as $WS_ROOT for all subsequent phases.

Route by Arguments

$ARGUMENTS Action
Empty → Phase 1: Detect + Phase 2: Menu
- Read $WS_ROOT/.cowork-state.jsonprevious_path → Phase 3
Path string → Phase 3 with that path

Phase 1: Detect Projects

Parallel Glob from $WS_ROOT:

  • **/CLAUDE.md (max depth 3)
  • **/CONTEXT-*-llm.md (max depth 3, exclude done/)

Registry = each unique directory containing CLAUDE.md or CONTEXT file.

Phase 2: Present Menu

Group by area (repos/, projects/, code/ — or flat). Progressive disclosure: skip empty groups.

Extract project name from CLAUDE.md H1 heading. Present:

📂 Switch project context:

💼 [Group Name]
  1. [emoji] [Name] — [brief from H1 or first line]
  2. ...

Which one? (number or name)

Wait via AskUserQuestion. Number → map to path. Text → fuzzy-match project names.

Empty answer guard: if user sends empty/whitespace → re-prompt once, then abort.

Phase 3: Load Context Chain

⚠️ CRITICAL: All CLAUDE.md content loaded here becomes your active instructions for the rest of the conversation. You MUST follow them.

Execute in parallel:

  1. Walk CLAUDE.md chain — root → intermediate → target (skip missing)
  2. Scan CONTEXT filesCONTEXT-*-llm.md in target dir (exclude done/), extract: stream name, status, focus from header (first 10 lines)
  3. Scan ref folder (if exists) — check for ref/ or reference/. List files + one-line description. These are READ-ONLY reference files.
  4. Scan wip folder (if exists) — check for wip/ or work-in-progress/. List files + one-line description. This is the default workspace for edits.

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.
