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

contributor-pipeline-gardening 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 12d 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.

Contributor pipeline gardening — awesome-claude (HeyClaude)

HeyClaude is a curated registry/directory of Claude and AI-workflow assets, plus the website (apps/web), registry/schema library (packages/registry), and MCP package (packages/mcp) that serve it. This is a much smaller, quieter repo than loopover/metagraphed — as of 2026-07-17 it had zero open gittensor:*-labeled issues and a thin, fully-closed 2-milestone history. This skill exists to build and then maintain a small, deliberately curated backlog — 15-25 contributor-available issues, not 50-100 — because padding a codebase this size to a larger number would mean weak/duplicate issues, which is explicitly worse than a smaller real backlog here.

The one thing this skill exists to prevent

Confirmed by the maintainer, 2026-07-17: contributors here have recently gravitated to test(...): cover X PRs — real tests, but zero behavior change, added purely to nudge Codecov's codecov/patch: 70% bar (a soft, easily-hit target — unlike loopover's 99% gate, 70% patch coverage is trivially satisfied by testing already-written code). A second anti-pattern found during this skill's initial research: issue #550 (a "growth sprint" umbrella with a long child checklist) was being farmed almost entirely for its single easiest repeatable pattern — wiring one more page into the existing intent-event/analytics-click convention, dozens of near-identical PRs (#5205, #5202, #5201, ... #5168, all Made with Cursor), rather than any of the umbrella's harder, more valuable child issues.

Never generate a standalone test(...): cover X issue. A regression test attached to a real bug fix is fine and expected (see the template in reference.md); a test-only issue with no behavior change is not. Never generate more instances of an already-being-farmed shallow repeatable pattern (check open issues and recent merged-PR titles for a dense run of near-identical titles before filing anything that looks like "wire pattern X into one more file/page/route" — if 5+ near-identical PRs already exist for the same pattern, that vein is farmed out, not a gardening opportunity). The whole point of this skill is issues that "drive real value... website/content/features grow... fix bugs/issues in frontend/backend" (the maintainer's own words) — not more of what a low-effort automated farmer already does better and faster than a well-scoped issue ever could.

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.
