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

resonate-defaults 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 12d 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.

Resonate Defaults

Overview

Use this skill when an agent (or user) needs to answer a "what is the default for X in Resonate?" question. The canonical reference page lives at:

That page is the single source of truth — every value below mirrors it. If the canonical page and this skill disagree, the canonical page wins and this skill is stale.

The skill carries a quick-lookup table so an agent can answer common questions in one hop. For anything not in the table, read the canonical page or the source files listed under Source-of-truth files.

When to use this skill

Trigger this skill when the question is about a default value, especially:

  • "What does ctx.run retry by default?"
  • "What is the default timeout for a durable function?"
  • "What is the default ttl / group / target?"
  • "What does Exponential() default to without arguments?"
  • "What is RESONATE_URL if I do not set it?"
  • "What is the default Resonate server port / log level / storage backend?"
  • Any "I called the constructor / Options(...) / Exponential(...) with no args — what did I get?"

If the question is how to configure something (versus what the default is), reach for the relevant resonate-basic-* or resonate-server-deployment skill instead.

Source-of-truth files

When the canonical page does not answer the question, read these files directly. Do not guess or deflect.

TypeScript SDK (resonatehq/resonate-sdk-ts)

  • src/options.ts — per-call Options defaults (timeout, target, tags, version, nonRetryableErrors, etc.)
  • src/retries.tsExponential, Constant, Linear, Never constructor defaults
  • src/resonate.ts — init defaults (group, ttl, pid, verbose, logLevel, prefix, url resolution)
  • src/network/http.tsHttpNetwork defaults (request timeout, URL fallback)
  • src/context.ts — runtime resolution that picks Exponential for regular functions vs Never for generator functions

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.
