    Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.
    Fix: Remove any persistence mechanisms (cron jobs, startup scripts, state files). Skills should not maintain state across sessions without explicit user consent.

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

reminders 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 2mo 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 71 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Reminders

Two distinct things hide behind "remind me" — pick the right one:

  1. A reminder/to-do in the user's reminders app (persists in their ecosystem, syncs to phone). Use native tooling.
  2. A timed nudge from ChatCLI itself — "ping me in 2h", "message me tomorrow at 9 to do X". Use ChatCLI's built-in @scheduler (+ @send to deliver), no external app needed. This is the self-contained path and works on every OS.

If the user is talking to ChatCLI over a gateway (Telegram/WhatsApp) and wants to be messaged, prefer path 2. If they want it in Apple/Google Reminders, use path 1.

Path 1 — Native reminders app (OS-specific)

ChatCLI is multi-OS — pick by platform:

  • macOS → AppleScript Reminders.app (no install):
    osascript -e 'tell application "Reminders" to make new reminder with properties {name:"Call the dentist", due date:(date "2026-06-04 09:00")}'
    
    List open items:
    osascript -e 'tell application "Reminders" to get name of (reminders whose completed is false)'
    
  • Windows → a scheduled Toast reminder via PowerShell ScheduledTasks, or simply use Path 2 (the ChatCLI scheduler) which is cleaner and OS-agnostic. Detect with Get-Command remind -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue.
  • Linux with remind(1) installed (command -v remind) → append to ~/.reminders and query with remind ~/.reminders. If nothing suitable is installed, fall back to Path 2.

When unsure what's installed, prefer Path 2 — it needs no external app and works identically on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Path 2 — ChatCLI scheduler (timed nudge, any OS)

Schedule a job that fires later and delivers a message. Resolve "now" first if the delay is relative — macOS / Linux: date '+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M %Z'; Windows: Get-Date -Format "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm zzz". Then use @scheduler to register the job, pairing it with @send so the reminder reaches the user on their channel. Consult the @scheduler tool schema for the exact when/every/payload fields (one-shot vs recurring), and confirm the resolved absolute time back to the user.
