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

Documentation Gap Finder 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 9d 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.

Documentation Gap Finder

What this skill does

This skill directs the agent to audit a codebase or documentation directory and produce a comprehensive list of documentation gaps. It checks for missing docstrings, undocumented exports, README files that don't match the current code, stale setup instructions, and any public API surface that lacks documentation. The output is a prioritized gap list that tells you exactly what to write and in what order.

Use this when preparing for a new developer joining the team, before an open-source launch, when onboarding is taking too long, or as part of a quarterly documentation review.

How to use

Claude Code / Cline

Copy this file to .agents/skills/documentation-gap-finder/SKILL.md in your project root.

Then ask:

  • "Use the Documentation Gap Finder skill on the entire repo."
  • "Audit the documentation for src/api/ using the Documentation Gap Finder skill."
  • "Use the Documentation Gap Finder skill — I want to know what a new developer would struggle to find."

Cursor

Add the instructions below to your .cursorrules or paste them into the Cursor AI pane before asking for the audit.

Codex

Provide the directory tree and key files. Ask Codex to follow the instructions below to produce the gap report.

The Prompt / Instructions for the Agent

When asked to audit documentation, follow these steps:

Step 1 — Establish scope

Determine what to audit:

  • If given a specific directory, focus there
  • If given the whole repo, check: root-level docs, docs/ or wiki/ folder, README.md, all public API surfaces, and configuration files
  • Identify the audience: internal developers, external API consumers, end users, or all three

Step 2 — Audit each documentation type

README / Project-level docs

  • Does a README.md exist at the project root?
  • Does it cover: what the project does, how to set it up, how to run it locally, how to run tests, how to deploy, how to contribute?
  • Are the setup instructions still accurate? Check against package.json, Dockerfile, or equivalent.
  • Are any listed commands or URLs broken or outdated?
