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

ai-news-radar 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 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.

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.

AI News Radar

Objective

Searches and summarizes the main recent Artificial Intelligence news from curated sources.

The skill:

  • searches recent news
  • removes duplicates
  • categorizes the topics
  • translates/summarizes in English
  • returns:
    • title
    • link
    • category
    • short summary

Usage

Invoke with:

  • /ai-news-radar
  • “latest AI news”
  • “AI summary”
  • “what happened in AI today”
  • “AI briefing”

Optionally, the user can specify the number of items:

  • “show me 5 AI news items”
  • “top 10 AI news stories”

Preferred sources

Use these sources:

Primary sources

  • Anthropic News — Company announcements
  • Claude Blog — Product updates and guides
  • Google AI — Gemini/DeepMind

Curation sources

  • TLDR AI — Daily AI industry digest
  • The Decoder — AI-focused site
  • Last Week in AI — Weekly roundup

Instructions

Determine quantity

If the user specifies a quantity:

  • use the requested quantity

Otherwise:

  • use 10 news items by default

Maximum:

  • 20 news items

Selection criteria

Prioritize news items that are:

  1. Recent, maximum 72 hours old
  2. Relevant to generative AI, models, products, research, agents, tools, or the market
  3. Published or highlighted in the preferred sources
  4. Potentially impactful for professionals, creators, developers, or companies

Duplicate removal

If the same news item appears in more than one source:

  • keep only one entry
  • choose the most original or most direct source as the main link
  • mention additional sources in the “Also appeared in” field
  • do not repeat the news item in the list

Possible categories

Classify each news item into one of these categories:

  • Launch — launch, release, announcement, GPT, Claude, Gemini, model
  • Research — paper, benchmark, study, research
  • Developer tool
  • Product — feature, API, update, tool
  • Market — funding, startup, acquisition
  • AI safety — safety, alignment, red team
  • Opinion — opinion, future, prediction
  • Other

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.
