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

slack-message-check 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 1mo 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.

What it actually says

Slack Message Check

Check Slack channels for important messages and summarize activity.

Instructions

Step 1: List Relevant Channels

Call slack_list_channels to see available channels.

Step 2: Check Priority Channels

For each important channel (determined by user preferences or channel activity):

  1. Call slack_get_channel_history with limit of 20 messages
  2. Filter for messages since last check

Step 3: Summarize Activity

Present findings to user:

Slack activity since yesterday:

**#general** (3 new messages)
- @alice mentioned the deployment schedule

**#engineering** (12 new messages)  
- Discussion about API changes
- @bob asked for review on PR #234

**DMs** (2 unread)
- @carol: Question about meeting time

Step 4: Offer Actions

Option Description
Create task Turn a message into a task
Reply Draft a response
Mark read Continue without action

Step 5: Continue Daily Flow

After Slack check, continue with normal planning workflow.

Example Flow

User: "What should I work on today?"

Agent:

  1. Checks Slack for new activity
  2. "You have 5 new messages across 2 channels..."
  3. Summarizes key items
  4. Offers to create tasks from actionable messages
  5. Continues with task planning

Notes

  • Focus on actionable messages, not all activity
  • Prioritize DMs and mentions over general channel noise
  • Respect user's channel preferences if configured

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.
