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

clockify-automate 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 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (hooks/clockify-runaway.sh), 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.

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 — 288 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Clockify automate

Mode on. This is not a second init. Wizards configure forge + Cursor platforms + runaway, patch yaml, ensure Clockify resources, write Cursor glue, and install Clockify-owned runaway hooks when enabled.

Config root

Pass config_root on Clockify MCP calls. If it is already known this session and still this repo, reuse it — do not run git before every tool. Otherwise resolve once with git rev-parse --show-toplevel from the working directory (open tabs are not required). Non-git: use the Cursor window folder (same as init). In a multi-root workspace, git-toplevel the focused file/folder; if nothing is focused, ask or scan roots for .clockify/config.yml. Re-resolve when the focused root changes. Do not pass the .code-workspace parent.

Init first (if needed)

If .clockify/config.yml is missing (clockify_get_config with config_root returns found: false), perform clockify-init (workspace AskQuestion only, write v4 base yaml, ignore markers). It is idempotent. Then continue below. Do not restate or fork that skill’s config/ignore steps.

If config already exists, do not overwrite the whole file — patch only the entry.automated (and scope.project when the forge wizard sets it) fields below.

Paused resume: If any entry.automated.forge.*.enabled is true and root enabled is false (after /clockify-automate-disable), skip the wizards below unless the user asks to reconfigure. Set enabled: true, restore platforms.cursor.enabled when modes warrant it, rewrite Cursor rules, and install/remove runaway hooks per settings.runaway.enabled — same as clockify-automate-enable. Temporary pause without wizards: that skill pair.

Forge wizard

Skip this wizard only when any entry.automated.forge.*.enabled is already true, unless the user asks to reconfigure forge settings. After /clockify-unautomate, all forge.*.enabled are false — always run the full wizard. After /clockify-automate-disable, forge *.enabled flags stay — skip and treat like enable (flip root enabled on + refresh glue) unless they ask to reconfigure.

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.
