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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00086 | $0.00855 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00034 | $0.00342 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00017 | $0.00171 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00085 |
Grade A, and why
sync-translations scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 75 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
sync-translations Skill
Detect which English docs changed and retranslate only those pages into docs/zh-TW/.
Step 1 — Find changed English doc files
Run this to find which English docs have changed since the last commit (or since a specific commit):
git diff --name-only HEAD docs/ | grep -v "^docs/zh-TW" | grep "\.md$"
If the user specifies a range (e.g. "since last release" or a commit SHA), use:
git diff --name-only <sha> HEAD docs/ | grep -v "^docs/zh-TW" | grep "\.md$"
If no files show up in git diff but the user says specific pages were changed, ask them which files or check git log --oneline docs/ -10 to find recent changes.
Step 2 — Show the user what will be retranslated
Before translating, list the files you found and confirm:
These English pages changed and need their zh-TW versions updated:
docs/guide/getting-started.md→docs/zh-TW/guide/getting-started.mddocs/philosophy/the-origin.md→docs/zh-TW/philosophy/the-origin.mdRetranslating now…
If the list is empty, tell the user no English doc changes were detected.
Step 3 — Retranslate each changed file
For each changed English file, translate it into Traditional Chinese and overwrite the corresponding docs/zh-TW/ file.
Path mapping: docs/X/Y.md → docs/zh-TW/X/Y.md
Translation rules (apply consistently):
- Translate all prose naturally into Traditional Chinese (Taiwan, 繁體中文)
- Keep ALL code blocks, CLI commands, file paths, variable names, function names in English
- Keep technical terms in English that are standard in Taiwan's tech industry: API, middleware, framework, backend, frontend, Redis, Socket.IO, TypeScript, Vue.js, React, Express.js, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Bull, Joi, Sequelize, Jest, Passport.js, Moment.js, JWT, token, session, OAuth, cron, migration, fixture, schema, UUID, action, controller, model, route, queue
- Keep product/brand names in English: Orbital Express, FiscalNote, Nitra, Heroku, Render, AWS, GitHub, LinkedIn, npm, yarn
- Preserve all VitePress markdown:
::: tip/warning/danger/infoblocks, tables, headers, code blocks - Update internal links:
/guide/X→/zh-TW/guide/X,/philosophy/X→/zh-TW/philosophy/X, etc. - Leave external links unchanged
- Tone: direct and confident, matching the English original
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.
