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

create-vps 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (assets/destroy.sh, assets/provision.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Create VPS

Use this skill to provision a fresh Hetzner Cloud VPS from a local machine.

This skill creates a server, SSH key, local SSH alias, and project folder. It can optionally chain into setup-control-room after the server is reachable.

Triggers

Standalone:

  • "create a vps"
  • "new vps"
  • "provision a server"
  • "create a hetzner vps"
  • "set up a new hetzner box"
  • /create-vps

Chained into setup-control-room:

  • "create an agent vps"
  • "create a fully loaded vps"
  • "create a vps and bootstrap it"
  • "new agent box"
  • /create-agent-vps

Inputs

Required:

  • PROJECT_NAME: collected from the user.

Derived from PROJECT_NAME:

SERVER_NAME
SSH_ALIAS
SSH_KEY_FILE
SSH_KEY_NAME

Defaults:

SERVER_TYPE=cx23
SERVER_LOCATION=hel1
SERVER_IMAGE=ubuntu-24.04

Server type and location should be selected from live hcloud output after the user adds the token to .env.

Prerequisites

Check first:

  1. hcloud CLI is installed.
  2. User has a Hetzner Cloud account.

If hcloud is missing, stop and give install instructions.

Security Rule

Never accept the Hetzner token in chat.

If the user pastes it, tell them to revoke it and create a new one.

The token must be pasted directly into the local .env file by the user.

Flow

  1. Ask for project name.
  2. Create local project folder.
  3. Write .env, .gitignore, scripts/provision.sh, and scripts/destroy.sh.
  4. Tell the user how to create a Hetzner API token.
  5. Tell the user to paste it after HCLOUD_TOKEN= in .env.
  6. After confirmation, source .env and query:
hcloud server-type list
hcloud location list
  1. Ask for server type and location using live options.
  2. Write selected values into .env.
  3. Run scripts/provision.sh.
  4. Verify:
ssh <alias> 'echo connected as $(whoami) on $(hostname); uname -a'
  1. If the original trigger asked for an agent VPS, invoke setup-control-room with SSH_ALIAS.
  2. Otherwise ask whether the user wants to bootstrap the Agent Control Room.

What ships with it

8 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
