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

cotend-project-init 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (scripts/check_cotend_governance_language.py, scripts/maintain_project_agents_router.py, scripts/resolve_framework_update.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.

CoTend Project Init

Protocol target: cotend-collaboration-v2.01

Project Init is the canonical initialization orchestrator. It routes to stable owners; it is not a second product-development, semantic-alignment, Tooling, Plan Tree, or reporting implementation.

Hard Boundaries

  • Inspect before asking which project mode applies. Resolve framework impact before Auto Mode or broad reads.
  • Project Init is the sole owner of user_facing_language_resolution during Init. Never infer language from conversation, locale, repository text, filenames, model output, runtime profile, or identity.
  • Project Init must not classify, execute, load, call, delegate, or wrap $cotend-semantic-alignment or $cotend-diagnose-only. Do not load cotend-collaboration/references/project-intelligence.md during ordinary Init. Do not use grill-me, Idea to Consensus, or Project Intelligence inside Init for product meaning.
  • Do not create protected L0-L2 meaning, confirmation, a parallel semantic tree, a second impact/language/reconstruction resolver, a language ledger, or an automatic canonical writer.
  • A supplied same_primary_session_handoff is point-in-time input, never current truth. It is eligible only with literal $cotend-session-handoff in the current input; never discover it after restart/reconnect/resume.
  • Critical, destructive, public/release, credential/private-data, scope, unresolved P0/P1, final acceptance, language conflict and integrity gates still stop for the user.
  • Full and Adaptive use the same language resolver, impact selection, validator, repair budget, stop/readiness result, and outer handback.
  • A standalone invocation returns control before product work. A bounded ordinary follow-on explicitly authorized in the same instruction may run only after the Init report and only when no specialized decision blocks it.

Direct Reference Router

Read a triggered direct reference completely. Do not preload all references, and do not reconstruct a missing owner from memory.

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.
