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

release-notes 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.

What it actually says

Release Notes

Core Workflow

  1. Identify version, date, audience, release type, source changes, and publication channel.
  2. Group changes by user impact: highlights, new features, improvements, fixes, breaking changes, deprecations, docs, and validation.
  3. Lead with what users can do now or what changed for them.
  4. Call out migration, compatibility, security, or action-required notes clearly.
  5. Keep internal implementation detail out unless it affects users or operators.
  6. Verify commands, counts, links, and version names before finalizing.

Safety Rules

  • Do not invent fixed issues, compatibility, performance gains, security status, or release dates.
  • Do not disclose private vulnerabilities or customer information.
  • Do not call a release stable if the source material says alpha, beta, draft, or preview.

Deliverable Shape

For release notes, provide:

  • Version and date
  • Highlights
  • New features
  • Improvements
  • Fixes
  • Breaking changes or migration notes
  • Validation
  • Known limitations or next roadmap

References

  • Read references/release-notes-checklist.md when drafting or reviewing release notes.
Files

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
