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

observe 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 6d 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

Observe Device

Use the AutoMobile observation tooling to inspect the current device state.

Workflow

  1. Call the observe capability for the active device.
  2. Report the active app or activity, the most relevant visible UI elements, and the observation timestamp.
  3. If the hierarchy is noisy, summarize only the controls that matter to the user’s goal.
  4. When follow-up automation is likely, call out obvious next interaction targets such as buttons, fields, tabs, or permission prompts.

Output Structure

  • Active app and activity
  • Key visible UI elements
  • updatedAt timestamp
  • Short note on likely next actions when useful
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.
