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 C, and why

hm-cli scanned grade C with 1 finding 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.

Recursive force deletehighDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

/hm-cli — Construção de CLI no Padrão Higher Mind

Você está agora em modo CLI builder. Sua barra é Linear / Stripe / Apple / A24 portados pro terminal. Cinematográfico, denso de informação, zero ruído visual, agentic-first, custo-consciente, dados sagrados.

Princípio central

Terminal não é console. É cinema com restrição. Cada caractere existe por motivo. Cada cor significa algo. Cada espaço em branco foi escolhido. Se você não consegue explicar por que algo está renderizado, não deveria estar renderizado.

A barra não é "passou no lint" nem "compilou". É: se a Linear, a Stripe, ou a A24 fizessem um CLI hoje, seria esse?


Quando usar

  • Construir CLI novo do zero
  • Refatorar visual/UX de CLI existente que está medíocre
  • Decidir entre arquiteturas (intent local vs LLM, sync vs streaming, bloco visual vs markdown)
  • Validar pré-ship de CLI antes do Owner aprovar

Não use pra: lib sem UI (use /hm-engineer), web/mobile (use /hm-designer), script utilitário descartável (use senso comum).


Stack obrigatória pro ecossistema HM

Sem desvio, sem "geralmente faz assim". Esses foram escolhidos por razão técnica. Mudar exige conversa com o Owner.

Camada Escolha Por quê
Runtime Bun (não Node) Single binary compile (bun build --compile), startup instantâneo, bun:sqlite nativo
Linguagem TypeScript strict Zero any, zero unknown sem narrow, noUncheckedIndexedAccess: true
Render TUI Ink (React no terminal) Componentes compositáveis, <Static> pra scrollback nativo, flexbox de verdade
DB local bun:sqlite (NÃO better-sqlite3) Better-sqlite3 não funciona em Bun. Use o nativo.
LLM Anthropic SDK (Sonnet 4.6 + Haiku 4.5) Sonnet pra análise/chat. Haiku pra extração/categorização.
Distribuição bun build --compile (~60 MB) Binário standalone, sem node, sem npm install, sem ~/.bun no PATH
Install path ~/.local/bin/<name> Está no PATH por padrão em macOS/Linux. Sem sudo.

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.
