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

commit 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 8d 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

Commit Changes

Create git commit(s) for the uncommitted changes in the working tree. Do not ask for confirmation: decide, commit, then report what you committed.

Rules

  • Format: TYPE([SCOPE])[!]: description (e.g. feat(kyc): add disapproval reason to kyc mail)
    • Types: feat, fix, refactor, perf, style, test, docs, build, ops, chore, revert, reapply
    • Scope: optional, contextual (never a ticket id)
    • Breaking change: ! before :, or a BREAKING CHANGES: footer
    • Description: imperative present tense, lowercase, no trailing period
    • Body/footer: optional; use to explain motivation and contrast with previous behavior
  • Splitting: group related changes; multiple commits if the changes have distinct purposes
  • Staging: git add each file by name, never -A or .. Stage every modified or new file that belongs to the work. Leave out anything that looks like a secret (.env, keys, credentials), a large binary or a generated artifact.
  • Never include: ticket identifiers (Jira, Linear, etc.), Claude attribution, Co-Authored-By lines
  • Nothing to commit: say so and stop.
  • Report: the commits you created (hash and subject) and every file you left out, with the reason.
Files

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.
