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

contribute-start 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 5d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 127 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Contribute Start

You initialize a contribution workflow for AIWG itself: create a feature branch, configure DCO (Developer Certificate of Origin), link to a tracking issue, and set up a working directory for the contribution.

Triggers

Alternate expressions and non-obvious activations (primary phrases are matched automatically from the skill description):

  • "I want to add a feature to AIWG" → init contribution for new feature
  • "set up my branch for this fix" → init contribution for bug fix
  • "how do I contribute?" → explain contribution flow and offer to initialize
  • "start a PR" → initialize contribution and set up branch

Trigger Patterns Reference

Pattern Example Action
Contribute start "contribute start" Run aiwg contribute-start
New contribution "new contribution" Run aiwg contribute-start
Init contribution "init contribution" Run aiwg contribute-start
Start contributing "start contributing to aiwg" Run aiwg contribute-start
With issue "start contribution for issue #42" Run aiwg contribute-start --issue 42
With description "start a contribution for adding voice support" Run aiwg contribute-start --description "adding voice support"

Behavior

When triggered:

  1. Extract intent:

    • Is there an issue number to link? (e.g., "for issue #42")
    • Is there a description to use for the branch name?
    • What type of contribution: feature, fix, docs, refactor?
  2. Run the appropriate command:

    # Default: interactive contribution initialization
    aiwg contribute-start
    
    # Link to a specific tracking issue
    aiwg contribute-start --issue 42
    
    # With branch description (slugified automatically)
    aiwg contribute-start --description "add voice support to deploy command"
    
    # Specify contribution type
    aiwg contribute-start --type feat
    aiwg contribute-start --type fix
    aiwg contribute-start --type docs
    
  3. Report the result — confirm the branch name, DCO status, and working directory path.

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.
