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

talk-normal 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 3d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 75 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

talk-normal

A curated system prompt that stops your LLM from writing like a LinkedIn post. Measured: 71% character reduction on GPT-4o-mini, 56% on GPT-5.4, across 10 prompts in English and Chinese, without losing information.

What this skill does

When invoked, this skill installs the talk-normal rules into your workspace's AGENTS.md file as an always-on behavior modifier. After install, every reply your OpenClaw agent produces follows the rules in prompt.md. The rules live between # --- talk-normal BEGIN --- and # --- talk-normal END --- markers so they do not conflict with your existing rules in AGENTS.md.

This is not a workflow skill you invoke per turn. It is a one-time installer that makes your agent permanently less verbose until you uninstall.

How to run

To install or update talk-normal in the current workspace:

bash install.sh

The script is idempotent: running it again replaces the existing talk-normal block in place with the latest rules. Nothing else in your AGENTS.md is touched.

To remove:

bash install.sh --uninstall

What gets installed

The contents of prompt.md get injected into your AGENTS.md. The rules target the specific slop patterns that make LLM output sound corporate and padded, grouped into a few categories:

  • Filler and hedging — banned opening phrases ("Great question", "I'd be happy to", "让我们一起来看看"), no throat-clearing, no restating the question
  • Structural discipline — lead with the answer, match depth to complexity, use bullets only when content is genuinely parallel, cap explanations for conceptual questions
  • Closing patterns — no "In summary" / "Hope this helps" / "综上所述", no hypothetical follow-up offers, no conditional next-step menus ("If you want I can also...")
  • Rhetorical tics — no "不是X,而是Y" / reject-then-correct framing in any variant, no plain-language restatements ("翻成人话", "in other words")
  • Shape of comparisons — give a recommendation with brief reasoning, cap pros/cons lists, no balanced-essay posture

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.
