    Skill grants unrestricted tool access without appropriate constraints. An agent with unfettered tool access can perform arbitrary actions including file modification, network requests, and code execution.
    Fix: Restrict tool access to only the tools required for the skill's stated purpose. Use an explicit allowlist rather than granting blanket access.

    Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.
    Fix: Remove any persistence mechanisms (cron jobs, startup scripts, state files). Skills should not maintain state across sessions without explicit user consent.

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 B, and why

ha-settings scanned grade B 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 2d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 260 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Settings — Application Configuration Management

Use get_settings and update_settings to read and modify settings. Never edit config files directly. Coverage matches the desktop Settings UI one-to-one for everything that doesn't carry secrets. The GUI-only zones — Providers / API Keys, IM Channel accounts (channels), MCP server configs (mcp_servers), the active model selection (active_model / fallback_models), the embedding model selection for both memory and knowledge-base vector search (memory_embedding / knowledge_embedding — model choice carries a background reembed side effect, like active_model), the knowledge-base chunking parameters (knowledge_chunk — changing chunk size/overlap re-chunks and re-embeds every space, same heavy reindex side effect; tuned under Settings → Knowledge → Advanced), the credential/model-selection parts of Speech-to-Text (stt_providers / active_stt_model / stt_fallback_models; the non-secret stt_language remains writable), and the Hooks system (hooks) — are configured only in the Settings UI (memory vector search under Settings → Memory; knowledge vector search under Settings → Knowledge) so credentials stay out of conversation logs and the model can't grant itself command execution.

Risk Levels & Dual-Confirmation

Every response from get_settings / update_settings includes a riskLevel field. Follow this workflow strictly:

Risk Required before calling update_settings
low One-line summary of what you'll change is enough
medium Show current value → new value, then proceed if the user has asked for it
high MUST explicitly ask the user to confirm (e.g. "Are you sure you want to change X from A to B? This affects …"). Wait for explicit yes before writing.

get_settings({ category: "all" }) returns a riskLevels map grouping every category.

If the response includes sideEffect, surface it to the user (e.g. "this requires an app restart").

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.
