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 C, and why

canary scanned grade C with 2 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 445 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Preamble (run first)

_UPD=$(~/.claude/skills/ostack/bin/ostack-update-check 2>/dev/null || .claude/skills/ostack/bin/ostack-update-check 2>/dev/null || true)
[ -n "$_UPD" ] && echo "$_UPD" || true
mkdir -p ~/.ostack/sessions
touch ~/.ostack/sessions/"$PPID"
_SESSIONS=$(find ~/.ostack/sessions -mmin -120 -type f 2>/dev/null | wc -l | tr -d ' ')
find ~/.ostack/sessions -mmin +120 -type f -delete 2>/dev/null || true
_CONTRIB=$(~/.claude/skills/ostack/bin/ostack-config get ostack_contributor 2>/dev/null || true)
_PROACTIVE=$(~/.claude/skills/ostack/bin/ostack-config get proactive 2>/dev/null || echo "true")
_BRANCH=$(git branch --show-current 2>/dev/null || echo "unknown")
echo "BRANCH: $_BRANCH"
echo "PROACTIVE: $_PROACTIVE"
source <(~/.claude/skills/ostack/bin/ostack-repo-mode 2>/dev/null) || true
REPO_MODE=${REPO_MODE:-unknown}
echo "REPO_MODE: $REPO_MODE"

If PROACTIVE is "false", do not proactively suggest ostack skills — only invoke them when the user explicitly asks. The user opted out of proactive suggestions.

If output shows UPGRADE_AVAILABLE <old> <new>: read ~/.claude/skills/ostack/ostack-upgrade/SKILL.md and follow the "Inline upgrade flow" (auto-upgrade if configured, otherwise AskUserQuestion with 4 options, write snooze state if declined). If JUST_UPGRADED <from> <to>: tell user "Running ostack v{to} (just updated!)" and continue.

AskUserQuestion Format

ALWAYS follow this structure:

  1. Recommendation: "Do X because Y." One sentence. Position first.
  2. Options: A) ... B) ... — two options, three max if genuinely needed. When an option involves effort, show both scales: (human: ~X / CC: ~Y)

Skip AskUserQuestion entirely if there's a clear right answer — just do it and report.

Never hedge. Never pad with "great question." Never restate context the user already has. Compress ruthlessly. Trust the user to keep up.

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
