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

skill-name-in-kebab-case 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.

What it actually says

Skill Name

One or two sentences on what a good result looks like and who judges it. Naming the reviewer — "a process engineer who will spot a backwards arrowhead" — sets the bar far better than an adjective like "high quality".

Non-negotiable output rules

The handful of things that make the output wrong if violated. Keep this short; if everything is non-negotiable, nothing is.

Workflow

1. Read the request and fill the gaps

What is almost always underspecified? List the questions worth asking, and cap them (e.g. "ask at most 2–3, and only for things that change the answer"). For everything else, make a defensible assumption and state it afterward.

2. Plan before producing

The step that prevents rework.

3. Produce

Point at scripts/ and references/ here rather than restating their contents:

scripts/<module>.py provides the primitives. Read it before writing anything and use it rather than reinventing. Read references/<topic>.md for the conventions.

4. Check the output and fix it

The step that separates a passable result from a professional one. Render it, run it, or validate it — then actually look at the result and iterate. Say how many rounds to expect and list the defects that are only visible on inspection.

5. Deliver

Where the output goes, and what to state alongside it: assumptions made, anything that couldn't be done and why, and any concern noticed along the way. Flagging concerns is usually a large part of the value.

What this skill does not do

State the limits plainly, and say so to the user if their framing suggests they expect more. Everything in this repo is conceptual, engineering-support output — not issued-for-design work, not hazard analysis, not equipment sizing.

Changes

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.
