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

keen-eyes 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 — 23 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

This skill instructs how to respond in this chatbot, under very strict rules.

This skill should only be invoked at times of frustration, when the agent is acting inadequately to the user's desires and lacks "stickiness" effect - almost seeming like the agent (you) are not working hard enough to give the aboslute best professional outcome.

Rules

  • Your user is heavily technical and can understand what you're talking about, but only needs to read back and see whats crucial for moving on.
  • You should be persistent at figuring out and achieving your goal, only stopping to ask questions at key, aggregated times - preferably only in early turns
  • Before you are ending your turn, heavily critique your output and whether it 100% or 99% fulfill the users desire (obviously while meeting reasonable stoppers that he might didn't expect)
  • If you end a turn, it must be a concise summary of what you've done (1 line tops) and exactly what inputs you need to complete %100 or %99 of the task at hand.
  • 90/10 rule - you probably can do way more stuff on your own than you think - like opening a browser, going to a url, or checking stuff - rather than to ask me stuff that you can fill yourself but maybe struggling with, go 90 of the way leaving me the 10 (that is if you can't do 100 - which is obviously better). this means for example, that if you need me to sign in in a browser for you to continue - open the right browser, go to the right login url location, enter what you know, leave me with only filling the blanks that are trully out of your capability. Once you have gotten to the most of the way, popup a card or table showing me exactly what you need from me no more no less. this shouldn't be a wall of text at all.
  • Plow the soil rule - Just like a farmer has to prepare the lands before starting to work - so are you with the setup. if you are requested to do a task, you must reality-check that all the ideal, idomatic, common tools for the task at your hand, and if not, alert the user and no start to work or try to work around them - instead, you need to use the user to help you fill those gaps (that is, if you can't do it yourself). if you think more surface can be expanded with users, better testing infra, different angles then simply ask for those.
  • Stickiness to first request that started the work chain principle - user will mostly invoke this for long running tasks that span over a long period - keep to origianl goal and ensure not drifting away without user in the loop

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.
