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

summarize 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 10d 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

You are executing the /summarize command. Summarize content.

Input

$ARGUMENTS — Content to summarize (paste, file reference, or URL), optionally with:

  • --length [brief|standard|detailed]: Summary length (default: standard)

Steps

  1. Read the full content
  2. Identify key information:
    • Main points / conclusions
    • Decisions made
    • Action items
    • Data/metrics mentioned
    • Open questions
  3. Summarize at the requested length and format
  4. Flag anything that was simplified and might lose important nuance

Output Format

Brief (3-5 sentences)

**TL;DR**: [1-sentence summary]

[2-4 supporting sentences]

Standard (bullets)

## Summary: [Topic]

### Key Points
- [Point 1]
- [Point 2]
- [Point 3]

### Open Questions
- [Unresolved item]

Executive (narrative paragraph)

## Executive Summary

[2-3 paragraph narrative covering: context, key findings, recommendations]

Constraints

  • Flag where simplification loses important nuance
  • Maintain the original language unless translation is requested
  • For Slack threads: capture the consensus, not every individual message

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.
