These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

    Skill selects an external model or provider that may use a different account or billing plan than the operator expects. Undisclosed model switches can cause unexpected cost or quota consumption.
    Fix: Remove the model/provider override or disclose it prominently and require explicit operator approval before invoking an external coding CLI or billed model.

    Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.
    Fix: Remove any persistence mechanisms (cron jobs, startup scripts, state files). Skills should not maintain state across sessions without explicit user consent.

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

today 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 4d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (tests/test-skill-contract.sh, tests/test-yesterday-prompt.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 — 181 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Today — Activity recap

The single collection-and-rendering procedure for /today and the /yesterday prompt. The existing /wrap-up activity helper owns collection; this skill owns report layout and mode rules. Use it for a catch-up or stand-up recap without ending the session or creating a handoff.

Usage and mode

/today                         # Same-day catch-up with current-session context
/today --previous-workday       # Objective previous-workday recap
/yesterday                     # Pi/Claude prompt for previous-workday mode

Accept no arguments (same-day mode) or exactly --previous-workday. Reject unknown arguments and repeated flags before collecting. The /yesterday prompt prepends --previous-workday and forwards any supplied arguments unchanged for this validation; never infer the mode from conversation text. Codex uses /today --previous-workday because this repository does not install prompt templates there.

Read-only boundary

Never create or update a handoff. Never change Git state, Beads, Jira, settings, files, or remote state. Do not commit, stash, push, sync, rename or exit the session, transition, comment, update tracker status, or prompt for a mutation. This skill reports evidence only.

Collect once, freshly on every invocation

The helper requires Python 3.10+ for date and JSON processing. Run the installed command for the selected mode once, in the invoking repository or workspace:

Mode Command Report header
Same-day ~/.agents/skills/wrap-up/scripts/activity.sh --workspace # Today — {DATE}
Previous-workday ~/.agents/skills/wrap-up/scripts/activity.sh --workspace --previous-workday # Yesterday — {DATE}

The helper owns date selection, local-day boundaries, UTC conversion, and validated repository resolution. Previous-workday means Friday when invoked on Monday and the preceding calendar day otherwise. Use its ---DATE--- value; never recalculate the date in either entry point.

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
