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

update-focus 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 6d 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 — 206 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Update Focus Skill

Structured end-of-session update to .context/current-focus.md that preserves the document's full structure.

Purpose

The stop hook nudges to update current-focus.md at session end, but ad-hoc edits risk flattening its rich structure. This skill handles session rotation, open loop management, and targeted questions — so the file stays useful as a working memory between sessions.

When to Use

  • At the end of a work session (triggered by stop hook or manually)
  • When the user says "update my focus", "save where I left off", "update current focus"
  • After session-log if current-focus.md wasn't updated

Canonical Document Structure

current-focus.md follows this structure — always preserve it:

Workflow

Step 1: Read current state

Read these three sources to understand what happened:

  1. .context/current-focus.md — current file contents
  2. Latest file in log/ — most recent session log (if one was created)
  3. git log --oneline -10 — recent commits for concrete evidence of work done

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.
