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

repo-standard 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.

repo-standard — conventions for a RepoKit repo

You are working in a repository scaffolded to the RepoKit standard. This skill is the router to the conventions. The full references live next to this skill; read the one you need from this skill's base directory (you were given Base directory for this skill: <ABS> at load — read <ABS>/standard/<doc>.md):

  • standard/the-standard.md — the type × tier model, per-tier file lists, the where-things-live map, the promotion path, and the do/don't list.
  • standard/where-things-go.md — a placement guide: "I have X — where does it go, how do I create the place if it doesn't exist yet, and on what convention?" Use this for any "where does this go" question.
  • standard/commit-conventions.md — Conventional Commits, SemVer, Keep a Changelog, and how release-please fits in at the Published tier.
  • standard/pre-commit-checklist.md — run through this before every commit.
  • standard/pre-pr-checklist.md — run through this before opening a PR.
  • standard/session-end-checklist.md — run through this before ending a working session: unmerged-branch decisions, one-concern commits, resume-state currency.
  • standard/testing-matrix.md — what to test, per repo type.
  • standard/doc-style.md — deterministic formatting rules for docs (one table style, ISO dates, fixed status words) so many sessions/models write like one author.
  • standard/living-docs.md — the living-docs add-on: docs/STATE.json as the single source for volatile facts, state blocks, scripts/check-docs.ps1, and the current-state-only runbook rules.
  • standard/labels.md — the layered issue/PR label scheme: GitHub defaults as the base, opt-in namespaces (area:, agent:, campaign:), workflow-verdict labels, and the bootstrap commands.
  • standard/agent-collaboration.md — humans + agents on a shared board: the real-time board rule, the pickup/handoff loop, closing-force gestures, agent-output signatures, and the session preflight.
  • standard/fleet.md — multi-repo projects (hub-and-spoke): the hub as router, the scope test, sibling clones, three-line spoke inheritance, and docs-move-with-stub.
  • standard/org-migration-checklist.md — moving repos into an org / rebuilding a project board: the six platform landmines as symptom → cause → fix, with doc citations.

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.
