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

telegram-notifier 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 2mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (scripts/send_telegram.py, tests/test_message_contract.py, tests/test_send_telegram.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 This Skill Does

This skill sends one concise plain-text Telegram reminder when work reaches a point where the user should come back. It is a reminder, not a full report.

When to Use

Use this skill when:

  • the work is not an instant reply and the user may have stepped away while waiting
  • the result is worth pulling the user back to the current session
  • the work is fully complete and ready for the final reply
  • the work has reached a natural stopping point and now needs user review, confirmation, or a reply

Do not use this skill when:

  • the task is a quick answer or a small fast edit
  • the work is still actively in progress and does not need anything from the user yet
  • you are tempted to send a progress update or intermediate status

Rules

  • Send only when the work is fully complete or paused at a user-facing checkpoint.
  • Do not send progress notifications.
  • Send only once per task when possible.
  • If you retry part of the task, return to the same checkpoint, or send the final reply later, avoid duplicate sends.
  • Keep the message short, plain text, and non-sensitive.
  • Prefer a single concise line.
  • Start from the project prefix in the template, then add a short suffix that tells the user why they should come back now.
  • Add exactly one space between the project prefix and the suffix when assembling the final message.
  • The suffix may include a small amount of key outcome detail if it helps the user judge urgency.
  • The suffix must not be empty or reduced to a vague status word.
  • Treat markers like review, confirmation, or reply as direction, not fixed sample sentences.
  • Do not include secrets, credentials, private data, or long technical dumps.
  • Try sending the reminder first; do not proactively check local config before every send.
  • If sending fails, then check whether skill/telegram-notifier/config.local.env is missing or incomplete.
  • If config is missing or incomplete, read references/setup-telegram.md and run that setup flow.

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.
