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

create-issues 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.

Create GitHub Issues

Execute automated GitHub issue creation workflow for $ARGUMENTS following TDD principles and conventional commit standards.

Context

  • Current git status: !git status
  • Current branch: !git branch --show-current
  • Open issues: !gh issue list --state open --limit 10
  • GitHub authentication: !gh auth status

Requirements Summary

Follow TDD principles, conventional commits, and protected branch workflows. Use proper labels, auto-closing keywords, and atomic commits. See references/requirements.md for complete standards.

Phase 1: Repository Analysis

Goal: Assess repository state, detect templates, and determine issue scope and type.

Actions:

  1. Analyze current branch from context (main/develop vs PR branch)
  2. Review open issues to identify duplicates or related work
  3. Check for contributing guidelines (CONTRIBUTING.md) and follow its requirements
  4. Detect issue templates in .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/ directory
  5. If templates exist: select appropriate template using gh issue create --list
  6. Determine issue type (epic, PR-scoped, or review) based on $ARGUMENTS complexity
  7. Apply branch-based decision logic from references/decision-logic.md

See references/repository-templates.md for template detection and compliance details.

Phase 2: Issue Creation

Goal: Create GitHub issue with proper structure, labels, and links.

Actions:

  1. Create or verify required priority labels exist (see references/decision-logic.md for commands)
  2. Draft issue following structure requirements in references/issue-structure.md
  3. Apply appropriate labels (priority, type) using --label
    • Assign owners using --assignee
    • Link milestones using --milestone or projects using --project if requested
  4. Add auto-closing keywords if PR-scoped issue (NOT for epics)
    • CRITICAL: auto-closing keywords only fire when the PR merges into the repository's default branch. If the issue will be resolved by a PR targeting a non-default branch, warn the user that the issue will NOT close automatically and must be closed manually — see references/auto-closing-keywords.md for the full rule and keyword table.
  5. Link to related issues or epics if applicable

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.
