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

qa-do 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 10d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 164 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Core Principles

  1. Route to the most precise skill, not the nearest neighbor. A vague match to a broad skill is worse than a direct hit on a narrow one. "Reproduce this bug" goes to bug-reproduction, not the broader ai-bug-triage; "test our Stripe checkout" goes to payment-testing, not generic api-testing. When in doubt, prefer the skill whose trigger phrases name the exact artifact in the request.

  2. One or two skills, in order — never a pile. Output at most two skills. A second skill earns its place only when the first leaves a clear gap (diagnose → measure, risk → checklist). If one skill covers the request, say "Direct" and stop. Routing to three skills means the situation is ambiguous — ask a clarifying question instead.

  3. The routing table is the source of truth, and it goes stale. This router is uniquely prone to drift: every skill added to skills/ is a row that may be missing here. Regenerate the table and the Skill Categories reference against skills/ whenever a skill is added or removed. If a request has no row, fall back to the closest category in the Quick Reference rather than forcing a wrong direct match.

How to Use

Describe what you're trying to do or what problem you're facing — a sentence or two is enough. The router outputs the recommended skill(s) (1-2, in order) and one line per skill explaining the role it plays. Example: "Our E2E tests keep failing in CI but pass locally." → test-reliability (diagnose flaky/environment-sensitive tests), then ci-cd-integration (align the pipeline environment with local behavior).

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.
