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

article-workflow-polish 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 7d 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.

Article Workflow Polish

这是流程类 Skill,默认仅在用户显式调用 $article-workflow-polish 时运行。

This is Phase 5 of the article-workflow-* skill series, corresponding to the "round-by-round polish" step of the article optimization workflow.

Goal: Under the constraint of preserving the author's personal style, iteratively polish the main draft expression across three rounds — remove truly redundant words (not tone carriers), smooth out truly awkward sentences (not flatten deliberate rhythm), and unify residual terminology and formatting inconsistencies. The AI executes; the author makes the final judgment. Each round produces independent output, and the next round only proceeds after the author confirms.

Trigger Scenarios

Use this skill when the user requests:

  • Executing article optimization workflow Phase 5
  • Round-by-round polish / language polish / polish
  • Generating .article-workflow/05-polish-rounds/ output
  • Doing a final expression polish pass after the main draft is complete
  • Starting from the main draft + style bible and iteratively tightening the text

Input and Output

Default inputs:

  • .article-workflow/04.5-main-draft/main-draft.md (the integrated main draft from Phase 4.5, serving as the polish baseline)
  • .article-workflow/style-bible.md (the style bible from Phase 5.0; must be read before each polish round)
  • .article-workflow/04.6-visual-plan/visual-plan.md (if present; only used to avoid polish disrupting planned text-image rhythm; does not change the polish scope)

Optional inputs:

  • .article-workflow/00-cleaned-sources/terminology-notes.md (confirmed proper noun table and uncertain items from Phase 0.5)

Default outputs (all placed in a single directory):

  • .article-workflow/05-polish-rounds/05.1-trim.md: Round 1 — trim redundant words
  • .article-workflow/05-polish-rounds/05.2-rhythm.md: Round 2 — adjust rhythm
  • .article-workflow/05-polish-rounds/05.3-terms.md: Round 3 — unify terminology
  • .article-workflow/05-polish-rounds/polished-draft.md: Final polished draft output from the three rounds

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.
