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

applescript 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 3d 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.

AppleScript 执行

通过 osascript 执行 AppleScript / JXA 脚本,控制 macOS 应用和系统。

使用场景

  • 需要控制 macOS 原生应用(Finder, Safari, Mail 等)
  • 需要弹窗对话框询问用户
  • 需要操作系统设置(音量、亮度、Wi-Fi 等)
  • 其他 Skill 内部调用

AppleScript 常用命令

应用控制

# 打开应用
osascript -e 'tell application "Safari" to activate'

# 关闭应用
osascript -e 'tell application "Safari" to quit'

# 获取当前最前方应用
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of first application process whose frontmost is true'

对话框

# 显示消息
osascript -e 'display dialog "操作完成!" with title "小搭子" buttons {"好的"} default button "好的"'

# 选择列表
osascript -e 'choose from list {"选项A", "选项B", "选项C"} with title "请选择" with prompt "你想要哪个?"'

# 选择文件
osascript -e 'choose file with prompt "选择一个文件"'

# 选择文件夹
osascript -e 'choose folder with prompt "选择一个文件夹"'

系统信息

# 获取当前 Wi-Fi 名称
osascript -e 'do shell script "networksetup -getairportnetwork en0 | cut -d: -f2 | xargs"'

# 获取系统音量
osascript -e 'output volume of (get volume settings)'

# 设置音量
osascript -e 'set volume output volume 50'

# 获取电池百分比
osascript -e 'do shell script "pmset -g batt | grep -o \"[0-9]\\+%\""'

# 获取屏幕亮度
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get value of value indicator 1 of slider 1 of group 1 of window 1 of application process "System Preferences"'

Finder 操作

# 获取当前 Finder 窗口路径
osascript -e 'tell application "Finder" to get POSIX path of (target of front Finder window as alias)'

# 在 Finder 中显示文件
osascript -e 'tell application "Finder" to reveal POSIX file "/path/to/file"'

# 获取选中的文件
osascript -e 'tell application "Finder" to get POSIX path of (selection as alias)'

JXA(JavaScript for Automation)

# JXA 替代 AppleScript
osascript -l JavaScript -e '
  const app = Application.currentApplication();
  app.includeStandardAdditions = true;
  app.displayDialog("Hello from JXA!");
'

# JXA 获取 Safari 标签页
osascript -l JavaScript -e '
  const safari = Application("Safari");
  const tabs = safari.windows[0].tabs();
  tabs.map(t => t.url()).join("\n");
'

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.
