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

no-ai-slop 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 10d 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.

No AI slop

Preserve the writer's point and voice while making the prose clearer and more alive. Remove observed patterns without turning distinctive writing into generic polished copy.

Choose the job

Edit (default). Make the minimum effective edit. Return the full edited draft and a short What changed section.

Detect. Name every pattern from this skill that appears, quote the affected line, and give a short fix. Do not rewrite, score the draft, or guess whether AI wrote it. Offer an edit after the report.

If no draft was provided, ask for it. Ask one audience/format question only when the answer would materially change the edit. If the goal is unclear, ask what the reader should think, feel, or do.

Editing principles

  • Read the full draft first and identify its point plus the vocabulary, cadence, bluntness, humor, uncertainty, digressions, and polish level worth preserving.
  • Make the minimum effective change. Fix observed patterns, errors, repetition, and unclear passages. Leave strong sentences alone.
  • Keep the writer's meaning. Do not invent claims, examples, statistics, sources, or opinions.
  • Lead with the point when setup adds nothing. Keep setup that adds context, tension, or character.
  • Open up tangled prose without flattening its cadence. Keep clear fragments and changes in pace.
  • Prefer concrete facts, mechanisms, consequences, and judgments over abstract importance.
  • Use the portability test: a sentence that could move unchanged to another product or company is probably filler unless it carries a necessary general rule.
  • Let facts and examples carry emphasis. Remove commentary that tells the reader what is important when the prose already shows it.
  • Prefer direct verbs and active voice when they are clearer.
  • Preserve useful edge, strong opinions, humor, and honest uncertainty.
  • Keep the existing structure unless it hurts the piece. Report any meaningful reorganization.
  • Preserve precise technical and domain terms. A word that is empty in marketing copy can still be correct in a product vocabulary. In Yoke, coding harness is an established, precise term; do not replace it merely because "harness" is often vague elsewhere.

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.
