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

next-steps 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 10d 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.

Next Steps — Stakeholder Alignment Checklist

What it does

Reads the current conversation (and optional connected context: Linear, Slack thread, Notion doc, git/PR state) and produces one consolidated checklist of next steps grouped by owner, ranked by priority, with explicit dependencies and open questions. Designed to be pasted into a Slack thread, a Linear comment, or a Notion update so everyone sees the same picture.

The point isn't to enumerate every possible task — it's to surface what unblocks the next move forward, so multiple stakeholders can self-serve.

When to use

  • After a working session, before posting a status update.
  • When a Slack/Linear thread has multiple unresolved threads — you need to consolidate.
  • When the user says things like "so what are next steps", "align everyone on next items", "summarise what each person owes".

Do NOT use this for: timesheet recaps (use /workday-summary), retrospective status posts (use /project-updates), or commit-by-commit breakdowns.

Inputs

Required:

  • The current Claude conversation — the primary signal. The model already has this in context.

Optional (from the scope-hint arg or follow-up questions):

  • A Linear ticket ID (e.g. ENG-1234) — fetch via mcp__linear-server__get_issue to anchor scope and check current state/assignee.
  • A PR number (e.g. #822) — fetch via gh pr view for state, reviewers, blocking checks.
  • A Slack thread permalink — read via Slack MCP to extract stakeholder asks.
  • A Notion doc URL — read via WebFetch / Notion MCP for narrative context.

If the conversation already contains these references (it usually does), pull them automatically. Only ask the user when scope is genuinely ambiguous.

Workflow

1. Anchor the scope

Identify, in one sentence, what project / piece of work this is for. Pull it from the conversation. If multiple candidates exist, ask the user which one.

2. Identify stakeholders

List every named person and role that has appeared in the conversation or in referenced tickets/threads. Mark each as one of:

  • Owner — has work to do
  • Decider — owes a call/answer that unblocks others
  • FYI — needs to know but has no action

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.
