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 B, and why

bdb-updater scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 8d 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.

Reads agent configuration directoriesmediumAgent snooping

.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

BDB Updater Skill

You are responsible for keeping the BDB Antigravity Skills up to date. When the user asks about updates, or if you are running on a scheduled cron task, you must:

  1. Check the latest version on NPM by running: npm show @hybridlabor-api/bdb-dev-optimized-agent-skills version

  2. If an update is needed, or the user requests a force update, you must run the interactive installer without prompts: npx -y @hybridlabor-api/bdb-dev-optimized-agent-skills@latest

  3. After a successful update, inform the user about the new features or simply confirm that the skills and MCP servers have been refreshed in ~/.gemini/config.

Scheduled Updates

If the user wants automatic updates, strongly recommend they use the /schedule slash command to set a recurring cron job for you. Example: "I can set up an automatic weekly update check for you. Just type: /schedule CronExpression="0 10 * * 1" Prompt="Check if there is a new version of @hybridlabor-api/bdb-dev-optimized-agent-skills via npm view and update it""

1. Overview

This skill provides domain-specific logic and rules for its respective BDB pipeline component to ensure standardization across multi-agent workflows.

2. When to Use

  • Use when specifically requested by the user or triggered by an orchestration agent.
  • Use when the current task aligns with the skill's domain.
  • Exclude when standard tool execution is sufficient.

3. Core Process

  1. Read the provided context and ensure preconditions are met.
  2. Run the required script or tool and confirm the state change.
  3. Verify exit codes, file modifications, or DB counts to guarantee success before reporting completion.

4. Common Rationalizations

Rationalization Reality
"The code change was small, so I skipped updating OpenWiki docs." Every state change must be reflected in the relevant system records.
"The ingest script exited without an error, so the memB index must be updated." Silent failures happen; explicit verification of the side effect is mandatory.
"I'll let the /startcycle proceed without a defined rollback path." Proceeding without a rollback path corrupts the workflow integrity and safety.
"I trust the cached agent registry instead of rescanning after a skill change." Caches stale out quickly; explicit rescans prevent ghost failures.

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.
