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

changelog 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.

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

Changelog Generation

Generate a changelog entry for a new release by analyzing merged PRs since the last tag.

Parameters

The user provides:

  • Version number -- e.g., 0.5.3
  • Additional PRs -- optionally, PRs not yet merged that should be included

Step 1: Gather Data

  1. Find the previous release tag: git tag --sort=-version:refname | head -1
  2. List all merge commits since that tag: git log <tag>..HEAD --merges --format='%s' | grep -v "Merge branch"
  3. Get PR details with: gh pr list --state merged --base main --search "merged:><tag-date>" --json number,title,author --limit 50
  4. List contributors: git log <tag>..HEAD --format='%an' --no-merges | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn

Step 2: Identify External Contributors

To determine if a contributor is external, check for an @entire.io email:

git log --all --format='%an <%ae>' --author="<name>" | sort -u

If they have an @entire.io email anywhere in git history, they are internal. Only list external contributors in the Thanks section.

Also check the memory file at memory/project_team_members.md for known internal/external mappings.

Step 3: Write the Entry

Insert the new version section at the top of CHANGELOG.md, after the header and before the previous version.

Format

Follow the existing style in CHANGELOG.md exactly:

## [X.Y.Z] - YYYY-MM-DD

### Added

- Feature description with context ([#123](https://github.com/entireio/cli/pull/123))

### Changed

- Change description ([#456](https://github.com/entireio/cli/pull/456))

### Fixed

- Bug fix description ([#789](https://github.com/entireio/cli/pull/789))

### Housekeeping

- Maintenance item ([#101](https://github.com/entireio/cli/pull/101))

### Thanks

Thanks to @contributor for description of contribution!

Style Rules

  • Sections: Added, Changed, Fixed, Housekeeping, Thanks. Omit empty sections.
  • Each bullet: starts with a dash, concise description, PR link(s) at the end
  • Group related PRs into a single bullet when they're part of the same feature/fix
  • Work-in-progress features: call out explicitly, e.g., "Feature X (work in progress): ..."
  • Known limitations: note inline, e.g., "Note: subagent tracking is not yet supported due to..."
  • Thanks section: only external contributors. Name what they contributed specifically.
  • Dependency bumps: group into a single Housekeeping bullet unless a bump fixes a notable bug
  • PR links: always use full URL format [#N](https://github.com/entireio/cli/pull/N)
  • No trailing period on bullet items
  • Date: use the current date in YYYY-MM-DD format

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.
