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

bmad-index-docs 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 9d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

100% identical to bmad-index-docs — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

Index Docs

Goal: Generate or update an index.md to reference all docs in a target folder.

EXECUTION

Step 1: Scan Directory

  • List all files and subdirectories in the target location

Step 2: Group Content

  • Organize files by type, purpose, or subdirectory

Step 3: Generate Descriptions

  • Read each file to understand its actual purpose and create brief (3-10 word) descriptions based on the content, not just the filename

Step 4: Create/Update Index

  • Write or update index.md with organized file listings

OUTPUT FORMAT

# Directory Index

## Files

- **[filename.ext](./filename.ext)** - Brief description
- **[another-file.ext](./another-file.ext)** - Brief description

## Subdirectories

### subfolder/

- **[file1.ext](./subfolder/file1.ext)** - Brief description
- **[file2.ext](./subfolder/file2.ext)** - Brief description

### another-folder/

- **[file3.ext](./another-folder/file3.ext)** - Brief description

HALT CONDITIONS

  • HALT if target directory does not exist or is inaccessible
  • HALT if user does not have write permissions to create index.md

VALIDATION

  • Use relative paths starting with ./
  • Group similar files together
  • Read file contents to generate accurate descriptions - don't guess from filenames
  • Keep descriptions concise but informative (3-10 words)
  • Sort alphabetically within groups
  • Skip hidden files (starting with .) unless specified
Changes

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.
