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

update-pull-request 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 yesterday.

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.

Update Pull Request

This skill teaches how to update an existing pull request's title and description so they accurately reflect the implemented changes.

When to Use This Skill

  • A PR description is outdated or no longer matches the implementation
  • You want to sync the PR title and description with the latest changes on the branch
  • Addressing reviewer feedback about unclear PR descriptions
  • After significant changes to the branch that alter the scope or intent

PR Conventions

All PR title rules, validation requirements, and description templates follow the same conventions as creating PRs. See create-pull-request skill for complete details.

Title Format

<type>(<scope>): <gitmoji> <subject>
  • Format: <type>(<scope>): <gitmoji> <subject> (max 128 chars)
  • Subject: Imperative mood, lowercase after gitmoji, no period
  • Gitmoji: Must match the type (✨ feat, 🐛 fix, 📝 docs, ♻️ refactor, 🔧 chore, ⬆️ dependencies, etc.)

Description Template

## 🌰 Summary

<!-- Brief description of what this PR does (1-2 sentences) -->

## 📝 Details

- <!-- List of specific changes made -->

## 🧪 Testing

1. <!-- How to manually verify these changes work correctly -->

## 🔗 Related

- <!-- Link any relevant documentation or related resources like internal documentation, GitHub issues/pull requests -->

Workflow

Step 1 — Identify the Active Pull Request

Determine the current branch and locate its open PR:

git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD
gh pr view --json number,title,body,baseRefName

If no PR exists, inform the user and suggest using the create-pull-request skill instead.

Step 2 — Gather the Full Diff

Get the complete set of changes between the base branch and HEAD:

git log origin/main..HEAD --oneline
git diff origin/main..HEAD --stat
git diff origin/main..HEAD

For large diffs, also review individual commits to understand intent:

git log origin/main..HEAD --format="%h %s"

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.
