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

release-management 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 12d 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.

Expected in a hook, worth knowing in a rule or an instructions file.

Release Management (s28)

Purpose

Orchestrate production releases with rigorous change management — ensuring every deployment has approval, verification, rollback readiness, stakeholder communication, and audit trail. Production is not a test environment; releases must be planned, not impulsive.


Prerequisites

  • Pipeline YAML from s04
  • Feature flags from s08 configured with kill switches
  • Security scan from s11 passed (no HIGH/CRITICAL findings)
  • Performance results from s13
  • Resilience score from s26 (minimum 80 for production)
  • Observability from s22 active and monitoring

Input Contract

Input Source Required
All pipeline YAML (stages, approval gates) s04 output Yes
CV verification passed s19 output Yes
Resilience score ≥ 85 s26 output Yes
Security scan passed s11 output Yes
Performance baseline validated s13 output Yes
Feature flag states (what's staged vs live) s08 output Yes
Deployment window constraints s02 taste (workflow), s22 (OPA) Yes
Rollback plan s04 (rollback steps), s10 (GitOps revert) Yes

Output Contract

Output Destination Format
Release plan document .commandcode/artifacts/releases/release-plan-<version>.md Markdown
Release notes (auto-generated) .commandcode/artifacts/releases/release-notes-<version>.md Markdown
Change request ticket (Jira/ServiceNow) External system Ticket ID
Deployment calendar update Team wiki / calendar iCal/CSV
Stakeholder notification Slack / Email Message

Post-release validation s19 (CV rerun), s26 (score update) Trigger

Release Lifecycle

PLAN → BUILD → VERIFY → APPROVE → DEPLOY → VALIDATE → COMMUNICATE → MONITOR

Week 1: Plan         — Scope, schedule, stakeholders
Week 2: Build+Verify — CI/CD runs, tests pass, security gates pass
Day 0:  Go/No-Go     — Release readiness checklist
Day 1:  Deploy       — Canary/blue-green/rolling with CV
Hour 2: Validate     — CV passes, SLOs maintained
Hour 2: Communicate  — Release notes published, stakeholders notified
Day 1-7: Monitor     — Error rates, latency, customer feedback
Day 7:  Retro        — What went well, what to improve

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.
