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

system-control 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (restart.py, scripts/restart.py, scripts/shutdown.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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

System Control Skill

This skill allows the agent to restart or shut down the bot.

Commands

Restart

Restart the bot. This is useful when the bot needs to reload code, clear memory, or recover from an unstable state. The bot will exit with code 42, which should be handled by the supervisor/watchdog to trigger a restart.

Usage:

python -m kabot.skills.system-control.restart --chat-id <CHAT_ID> --message "I'm back!" --channel <telegram|discord>

Arguments:

  • --chat-id: The ID of the chat where the bot should send a message after restarting.
  • --message: The text message to send after restart.
  • --channel: The platform channel (e.g., 'telegram', 'discord').

Shutdown

Shut down the bot completely.

Usage:

python -m kabot.skills.system-control.shutdown
Files

What ships with it

5 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
