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

btw 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.

BTW / QQ: side conversations

Use this skill when the user wants to work in parallel with the main agent instead of derailing the current turn.

Both /btw and /qq are identical. Use whichever feels natural. /qq stands for "quick question".

When to use BTW

Prefer the BTW workflow when the user wants to:

  • ask a side question while the main agent keeps working
  • brainstorm or compare options without interrupting the current run
  • prepare a plan or summary before handing it back to the main agent
  • keep exploratory discussion out of the main transcript/context

Commands

Use these commands in your guidance to the user:

/btw <question>
/btw --save <question>
/btw new [question]
/btw clear
/btw inject [instructions]
/btw summarize [instructions]

Every /btw command has a /qq equivalent:

/qq <question>
/qq --save <question>
/qq new [question]
/qq clear
/qq inject [instructions]
/qq summarize [instructions]

How to guide the user

For a quick side question

Recommend:

/btw <question>

or

/qq <question>

Use this when the user wants an immediate aside and does not need a visible saved note.

For a saved one-off note

Recommend:

/btw --save <question>

Use this when the user wants the exchange to appear as a visible BTW note in the session transcript.

For a fresh side thread

Recommend:

/btw new

or

/btw new <question>

Use this when the previous BTW discussion is no longer relevant.

To hand the full thread back to the main agent

Recommend:

/btw inject <instructions>

Use this when the exact discussion matters and the user wants the main agent to act on it.

To hand back a condensed version

Recommend:

/btw summarize <instructions>

Use this when the thread is long and only the distilled outcome should go back into the main agent.

Recommendation rules

  • Prefer /btw over normal chat when the user explicitly wants a side conversation.
  • Prefer /btw summarize over /btw inject for long exploratory threads.
  • Prefer /btw inject when precise wording, detailed tradeoffs, or a full plan matters.
  • Suggest /btw new before starting a totally unrelated side topic.
  • Suggest /btw clear when the widget/thread should be dismissed.

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.
