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

ds-unstuck 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.

Preamble

"../lib/env.sh" "unstuck"

What this skill does

Something stopped working. You're going to diagnose it visually, explain it in plain English, then propose exactly one fix — and wait for approval before any code is touched.

This skill never writes code until the user says yes.

Step 1 — Understand the problem

Ask the user (if it's not already clear from context):

"What happened? Describe it like you'd tell a friend — 'the button doesn't do anything when I click it', 'the page looks broken', 'I get a red error message', etc."

Also check the conversation history for any error messages, stack traces, or descriptions already provided.

Step 2 — Take a screenshot (if browse available)

If BROWSE is not NOT_FOUND and the project has a running URL:

Ask: "Is your project running right now? What's the URL?"

If yes:

$B goto <URL>
$B screenshot /tmp/dstack-unstuck.png
$B console --errors

If the URL is not reachable:

"It looks like your project isn't running right now. To start it, open your terminal and type npm run dev (or npm start) — then tell me the URL, usually http://localhost:3000. I'll wait."

Do not continue until the user confirms the project is running.

Show the screenshot to the user via the Read tool so they can see it.

Also check the browser console for errors:

$B console

Note any red errors in the console output.

If BROWSE is NOT_FOUND: skip screenshots. Work from the error message and code context only.

Step 3 — Diagnose in plain English

Follow the jargon rules in lib/plain-language.md when diagnosing — no technical terms.

Write ONE sentence that describes exactly what's wrong. No technical jargon. Examples:

  • "The submit button isn't working because it's pointing to a page that doesn't exist yet."
  • "The page looks blank because there's an error in the data it's trying to load."
  • "The layout is broken because a piece of the page is missing a required setting."
  • "The image isn't showing up because the file path has a typo."
  • "The login isn't working because the connection to your database timed out."

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.
