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

initialize 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 1mo 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

/initialize — open an org-os session

When the operator invokes /initialize, follow these steps in order:

  1. Sync the repo (best-effort, don't block on offline). Run a shell command in the org-os repo:

    git pull --rebase --quiet 2>&1 || echo "sync: no remote or offline — continuing with local state"
    

    Use whatever shell-execution mechanism is available. If none, skip silently.

  2. Render the dashboard by calling org_os_page tool with page_id="dashboard". Embed the output verbatim.

  3. Propose 3 contextual suggestions for what to work on, ranked by urgency:

    • Anything in Critical or Urgent tasks first
    • Then funding deadlines within 7 days
    • Then any instance with drift > 1 or last sync > 30 days
    • If none of those apply, suggest the highest-priority queued plan from the Plans section

    Present as a numbered list. End with: "Or describe what you'd like to work on."

  4. Wait for the operator's choice. Do NOT silently execute any of the suggestions.

If org_os_page returns an ERROR: message, surface it directly and prompt the operator to check ORG_OS_ROOT.

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.
