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 B, and why

eli-pr scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 1mo 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.

What it actually says

ELI-PR — Plain-Language PR Description

Reads the current git diff and writes a PR description a non-engineer can understand.

Steps

1. Get the diff

git diff main...HEAD 2>/dev/null || git diff master...HEAD 2>/dev/null || git diff HEAD~1..HEAD 2>/dev/null || git diff --cached

Also scan recent commit messages:

git log --oneline -10 2>/dev/null

2. Check active eli5 level

cat .claude/eli5-state.json 2>/dev/null || echo "{}"

Default to eli-adult if no level is active.

3. Write the PR description

Use exactly this structure:

## What changed
[One sentence. Plain English. What was built, fixed, or removed — not how.]

## Why
[One sentence. The user/business reason. What problem does this solve?]

## How to test
- [Step 1 — anyone can follow this]
- [Step 2]
- [Step 3 if needed]

## Risk
[One sentence. What could break? Or: "Low risk — no user-facing changes."]

Rules

  • Audience: your manager, a designer, a PM — intelligent but not technical
  • No jargon without an inline plain-language equivalent (e.g. "cache (temporary storage)")
  • The "What changed" line must pass the pub test: could you say it to a friend?
  • If the diff is empty or unreadable, ask the user to describe the change
  • If eli5-mode is active at a specific level, match that level's vocabulary
  • Never invent functionality — only describe what the diff shows

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.
