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

kimun-cli 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 17d 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.

Kimün CLI Reference

Kimün is a local-first, terminal notes app. Notes are plain Markdown files indexed for fast search. Use the CLI to write, append, search, and read notes without opening the TUI — ideal for automation, piping, and AI-driven workflows.

Writing Notes

All write commands accept content as a second argument or from stdin (when stdin is not a TTY).

Create

Creates a new note. Fails if the note already exists — use append if unsure.

kimun note create "inbox/idea" "My content"
echo "My content" | kimun note create "inbox/idea"

Append

Appends to a note. Creates it automatically if it doesn't exist. Safe to use as the default write command.

kimun note append "inbox/log" "New entry"
echo "Entry" | kimun note append "inbox/log"

Modifying Notes

Three destructive operations let you change or remove existing content. Each one backs up the note first (see below), so an edit is recoverable.
