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

octopus-review 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 2mo 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

Octopus code review

Octopus (octopus-review.ai) is an AI code reviewer that catches security issues, real bugs, and design problems. This skill drives the Octopus MCP tools.

When to use

  • The user asks to "review my changes", "review this", or "have Octopus look at this".
  • Before opening a pull request.
  • The user asks a question about their code or a previous Octopus review.

Setup (first run)

The tools need an Octopus org API token in the plugin config (OCTOPUS_TOKEN, an oct_... value). If a tool reports the token is missing, tell the user to create one with npx @octp/cli login (or from their octopus-review.ai settings) and add it to the plugin's config. Run octopus_status to confirm the connection and which organization it points at.

Reviewing changes

Prefer letting Octopus read the diff itself: call octopus_review_changes with repoPath set to the repository root, and it runs git diff for you (working changes, then staged). If you already have a specific unified diff, pass it as diff instead. Present the findings grouped by severity and offer to fix the highest-severity ones.

Answering questions

Use octopus_ask for questions about the codebase or past reviews. Pass the returned conversationId back on follow-ups to keep context.

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.
