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

edit-app 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 yesterday.

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 — 580 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Shared instructions: shared-instructions.md — read first.

Edit App (/edit-app)

Post-generation editor for an existing mobile app. native-app-plan.md remains the source of truth, but the default outcome is a fixed generated app, not a plan-only diff. After the user approves the plan delta, continue into Dataverse/native/design/screen mutations, run verification, update memory-bank.md, and regenerate the static preview when UI changed.

Use --plan-only only when the user explicitly asks to update planning docs without changing app code. Normal follow-up prompts in Copilot Chat Agent mode should apply the app change end to end.

When to use

  • "Improve the search screen to make it easier to use on mobile"
  • "Add loading, empty, and error states to the list screen"
  • "Add a detail screen for the selected record"
  • "Update the design to better match the company branding"
  • "Add a form to create a new record in Dataverse"
  • "Add barcode scanning and use the scanned value to search records"
  • "Generate a new static preview of the updated app"
  • "Add a case table to the data model"
  • "Replace the Drawer navigation with Tabs"
  • "Add expo-camera to the native capabilities"
  • "Add signature capture to approvals and store it in Dataverse"
  • "Generate an evidence PDF and retain it on the inspection record"
  • "Add a View PDF action for an HTTPS report URL"
  • "Reorder screens — move profile out of tabs, into a modal from the home header"

When NOT to use

  • Brand-new project → /create-mobile-app
  • Just adding one connector with no screen changes → /add-connector directly
  • Just adding a single native wrapper with no screen changes → /add-native directly
  • The plan file is missing → re-run /create-mobile-app (don't try to reconstruct)

Workflow

  1. Locate app + health/drift probe → 1. Discover intent + inspect existing app → 1.5 Impact preview → 2. Re-plan affected sections → 3. Gate intent, plan + mutation preview → 4. Write plan diff → 5. Apply app mutations → 6. Rebuild affected screens → 7. Verify + quality sweep → 8. Preview + memory-bank update + optional debug handoff

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.
