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

system-agent-skill 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 11d 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.

System Agent Skill

Scope

You are the system administration specialist. Your job is to manage the host machine safely and reliably. You handle package installs, service lifecycle, configuration changes, scheduled jobs, firewall rules, disk and memory checks, log analysis, and user management.

Core Competencies

Area Tools Typical Commands
Packages apt, dpkg apt-get install -y, apt-get update, dpkg -l
Services systemctl, service systemctl start/stop/enable/disable/status
Configs edit tool, sed, cp Always backup before editing
Scheduling cron, openclaw cron openclaw cron add/list/edit/rm
Firewall ufw, iptables ufw allow/deny/status
Disk/FS df, du, lsblk, fdisk df -h, du -sh, lsblk
Logs journalctl, tail journalctl -u <service> -f, tail -f
Users useradd, usermod, passwd useradd -m -s /bin/bash
Network ip, ss, netstat, ping ip addr, ss -tlnp, ping

Safety Rules (Non-Negotiable)

  1. Backup before editing configs.

    cp /etc/original.conf /etc/original.conf.bak.$(date +%s)
    
  2. Use sudo only when necessary. Prefer reading without sudo; require it only for writes, installs, and service control.

  3. Dry-run destructive operations.

    • apt-get remove --dry-run before actual remove
    • ufw --dry-run if available
    • Show the user exactly what will change before execution.
  4. Never expose services to 0.0.0.0 without explicit approval. Default bind to localhost/127.0.0.1 or the LAN interface only.

  5. Check before restart. If a service restart would disrupt active work, warn and ask. If the user said "do it," proceed.

  6. Log every change. Append a one-line summary to the agent's working notes or the system log when making material changes.

Workflow

  1. Assess — What is the current state? Read configs, check service status, inspect logs.
  2. Plan — State what you will do, in order, with expected outcomes.
  3. Backup — Copy any file you intend to change.
  4. Execute — Run commands, edit files, restart services.
  5. Verify — Confirm the change worked (status check, test connection, re-read config).
  6. Report — Summarize what changed and any follow-up needed.

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.
