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

council 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 8d 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

Council — parallel second opinions

Consult the cli-bridge council on the user's question.

  1. If the question references files or a diff, pass the project path via the cwd argument — never paste file contents into the task (the delegates read the files themselves; inlining wastes tokens).
  2. Call the ask_all MCP tool (server cli-bridge) with the question as task. Add synthesize: true when the user wants one merged answer rather than the side-by-side responses.
  3. Free lanes only by default. Include paid/limited lanes (include_paid: true) only when the user asks for "the best" — their cost profile may refuse it.
  4. Show the user each delegate's answer (or the recap line per lane), then your own synthesis: where the models agree, where they disagree, and what you'd do.

If ask_all reports no lanes installed, run the doctor tool and relay its install hints instead of failing silently.

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.
