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

homectl 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

homectl

Operate the public materialization mechanism over a private Home Assistant definition. Axon owns the parser, validation, and vendoring behavior. The selected overlay owns the templates, variable map, component lockfile, helpers, and generated output.

Commands

scripts/homectl doctor
scripts/homectl materialize
scripts/homectl components [--only NAME] [--dry-run]

Defaults resolve from AXON_OVERLAY_ROOT, AXON_HOME_ROOT, or the overlay declared by axon.local.toml:

  • capability input: <overlay>/capabilities/home-assistant
  • variables: <overlay>/config/home-assistant.vars
  • generated output: <overlay>/build/home-assistant
  • component destination: <overlay>/config/home-assistant

Every path remains overridable for isolated tests.

Boundary

  • Never point generated output into public Axon.
  • Never place a real entity ID, hostname, component selection, or device name in this Pack.
  • Treat the set of templates and components as a private inventory even when their contents use placeholders and public Git references.
  • Review component diffs before replacement; runtime fetching is not allowed.

Read references/templating.md for the token contract and references/automation-doctrine.md for reusable reliability rules.

Files

What ships with it

4 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.
