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

text.criticize 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 yesterday.

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 — 83 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Goal

  • Review and criticize the text (markdown, blog posts, documentation)
  • Identify mistakes and improvement opportunities, focusing on factual errors, rather than style suggestions
  • Propose concrete improvements to content, flow, visual clarity, pacing, and audience fit

Workflow

Read the Material

  • Read the text passed by the user carefully

Identify and Rank Mistakes

Definition

  • Criteria for mistakes:

    • Factual inaccuracy (wrong information, outdated claims)
    • Logical contradiction or inconsistency
    • Technical error (code doesn't work, command is wrong, API is misrepresented)
    • Broken reference (link is dead, file path is wrong, name is misspelled)
    • Only report issues you are absolutely certain about
  • Ranking severity:

    • High: Misleads reader or causes confusion
    • Medium: Could improve clarity or accuracy
    • Low: Minor inconsistency or incomplete statement

TODOs

  • Ignore the TODOs that already exist in the text

Suggest Improvements

  • Identify opportunities to improve clarity, structure, or completeness without changing facts

Definition

  • Types of improvements:

    • Clarity: Making text easier to understand
    • Completeness: Adding missing context or examples
    • Consistency: Aligning terminology or formatting
    • Readability: Breaking up dense sections or improving flow
  • Ranking severity:

    • High: Significantly improves comprehension or prevents misunderstanding
    • Medium: Moderately improves clarity or adds useful detail
    • Low: Minor improvement in readability or polish

Write the Results

  • The output format is a vim cfile following .claude/skills/cfile.rules.md

    <full path file>:<LINE_NUMBER>:1 [HIGH/MEDIUM/LOW] Short description of error
    <full path file>:<LINE_NUMBER>:1 [HIGH/MEDIUM/LOW] Why this is wrong and what the correct statement should be
    ...
    
  • Example

    msml610/lectures_source/README.md:12 [HIGH] Claims "pip install X" but pip package is named "X-lib"
    msml610/lectures_source/README.md:5 [HIGH] Add example of basic usage after the description
    helpers/docs.md:8 [MEDIUM] Link to API docs is outdated (2023 version, current is 2024)

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.
