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

create-commit-message 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 3d 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 message

Steps

  1. Read staged changes: git diff --cached
  2. Read unstaged changes: git diff
  3. Read recent commits for style match: git log --oneline -10
  4. If both diffs are empty, stop and say "nothing to commit".
  5. Read the current branch name: git branch --show-current — if it contains an issue/ticket id, reference it per the repo's convention visible in git log.

Output format

<type>(<optional scope>): <short summary in imperative mood, max 72 chars>

<optional body: what changed and why, wrapped at 72 chars, splitted as bullet items>

Where <type> is one of: feat, fix, refactor, docs, test, chore, perf, ci If the branch name contains an issue id (e.g. 123 in feat/123-add-login), include it the way recent commits in git log do (e.g. (#123) suffix); omit it otherwise.

Rules

  • Be concise — focus on the "why", not the "what" (the diff shows the what)
  • Use imperative mood: "add feature" not "added feature"
  • If changes span multiple concerns, suggest splitting into separate commits
  • Output only the message, ready to copy-paste
  • Message should be for one commit only. Do not split into more than one commit
  • If quotes are to be used, use single quotes always

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.
