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

document-linking 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 18d 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.

Document Linking

Provides a unified ID system connecting PRDs, ADRs, PRPs, work-orders, GitHub issues, commits, and PRs. IDs are project-scoped, auto-generated on first access, and maintained bidirectionally.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when... Use blueprint-sync-ids instead when...
You need bidirectional links between PRD/ADR/PRP/issue at runtime You're doing a one-shot bulk ID assignment for docs missing IDs
You're auto-assigning an ID on first document access You want a --dry-run preview of bulk ID changes
You want to validate broken cross-document references Use blueprint-adr-validate instead for ADR-only relationship checks
You need to find orphan docs/issues across the project Use document-detection instead when capturing a brand-new doc

ID Format

Document Type Format Example Notes
PRD PRD-NNN PRD-001 3-digit, zero-padded
ADR ADR-NNNN ADR-0003 4-digit (matches existing convention)
PRP PRP-NNN PRP-007 3-digit, zero-padded
Work-Order WO-NNN WO-042 3-digit, matches work-order number

Frontmatter Schema

All blueprint documents should include these fields:

---
id: PRD-001                    # Unique identifier (auto-generated if missing)
relates-to:                    # Cross-document references (optional)
  - ADR-0003
  - PRP-002
github-issues:                 # Linked GitHub issues (optional)
  - 42
  - 87
implements:                    # For PRPs: source PRD (optional)
  - PRD-001
# ... existing fields (created, modified, status, etc.)
---

ID Registry (manifest.json)

IDs are tracked in docs/blueprint/manifest.json:

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.
