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

dream 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 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.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 182 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/dream

Intent. Make the vault talk back. Without this verb, a second-brain is "a very organised way to forget things." /dream is the feedback loop — synthesis pushed at the user without them having to ask.

The output is a brief in inbox/, not a graph node. Briefs are prompts to think, not auto-generated content. If a brief surfaces something load-bearing, the user (or /extract invoked on the brief) promotes it to a synthesis claim in notes/synthesis/.

This separation is deliberate: the model can identify candidate connections; only the user can decide which become atoms in the graph.

Modes

--daily (default)

A 3-second read before the user opens anything else. Three asks — surfaced from claim activity in the last 7 days (configurable via --scope):

  1. Connections (3) — non-obvious links between recent captures and older notes the user probably forgot about. Each link is one sentence: "[[claim-A]] connects to [[older-claim-B]] because ."
  2. Pattern (1) — one pattern across the last week's reading. What is your brain working on, even if you haven't said it explicitly?
  3. Question (1) — one question worth sitting with today. Not a task. A question.

Output: inbox/dream-{YYYY-MM-DD}.md.

--weekly

Deeper, Monday-morning ritual. 15-minute read. Four asks — surfaced from the last 30 days (configurable):

  1. Emerging thesis — what idea is the vault building toward without it having been stated explicitly? Look at the new claims, the new MOCs, the questions that recur.
  2. Contradictions — what has been saved recently that contradicts something believed before? confidence: contested claims are the obvious place to look; also flag claims whose contradicts: arrays are non-empty.
  3. Knowledge gaps — what is clearly not being read that should be? Look at the goals.md active threads vs. recent claim coverage. Where's the gap?
  4. One action — the single highest-leverage thing to do or think about this week. Not a task list. One sentence.

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.
