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

git 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.

What it actually says

git

Most of git usage is what you already know, so depend on that. This is skill is just a refinement.

Branch naming

Just name the branch a short sentence seperated with dashes. Example: add-some-feature. Don't use feat/, hotfix/ etc. prefixes.

Commit messages

  • Always enclose code identifiers with backticks. Example: "Add html.UserPage component"
  • Always refer to Go code identifiers including the package name, like in html.UserPage above. Fields and methods on structs can be referred with model.User.Name.
  • Ask me about any Github issues that should be referenced. Reference them at the end of the commit message like this: "See #123, #234". If the commit fixes one or more issues, use "Fixes #123, fixes #234" instead (the double "fixes" is important for Github to actually close the issue).
  • Don't mention that you've updated tests, that's assumed.

Committing

  • Don't amend previous commits unless instructed to. When committing after the first commit on a branch, just commit with a simple message (e.g. "fixing …"), because the branch will most times be squashed on Github anyway.
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.
