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

code-review 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 yesterday.

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.

Code Review

Guide proper code review practices emphasizing technical rigor, evidence-based claims, and verification over performative responses.

Overview

Code review requires three distinct practices:

  1. Receiving feedback - Technical evaluation over performative agreement
  2. Requesting reviews - Systematic review via code-reviewer subagent
  3. Verification gates - Evidence before any completion claims

Each practice has specific triggers and protocols detailed in reference files.

Core Principle

Technical correctness over social comfort. Verify before implementing. Ask before assuming. Evidence before claims.

When to Use This Skill

Receiving Feedback

Trigger when:

  • Receiving code review comments from any source
  • Feedback seems unclear or technically questionable
  • Multiple review items need prioritization
  • External reviewer lacks full context
  • Suggestion conflicts with existing decisions

Reference: references/code-review-reception.md

Requesting Review

Trigger when:

  • Completing tasks in subagent-driven development (after EACH task)
  • Finishing major features or refactors
  • Before merging to main branch
  • Stuck and need fresh perspective
  • After fixing complex bugs

Reference: references/requesting-code-review.md

Verification Gates

Trigger when:

  • About to claim tests pass, build succeeds, or work is complete
  • Before committing, pushing, or creating PRs
  • Moving to next task
  • Any statement suggesting success/completion
  • Expressing satisfaction with work

Reference: references/verification-before-completion.md

Quick Decision Tree

SITUATION?
│
├─ Received feedback
│  ├─ Unclear items? → STOP, ask for clarification first
│  ├─ From human partner? → Understand, then implement
│  └─ From external reviewer? → Verify technically before implementing
│
├─ Completed work
│  ├─ Major feature/task? → Request code-reviewer subagent review
│  └─ Before merge? → Request code-reviewer subagent review
│
└─ About to claim status
   ├─ Have fresh verification? → State claim WITH evidence
   └─ No fresh verification? → RUN verification command first

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.
