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

off 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 8d 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.

Reads agent configuration directoriesmediumAgent snooping

.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

Only for global mode: Read `~/.claude/settings.json`. If it has a `UserPromptSubmit` hook that runs `hush-on-input.sh`, remove that entire `UserPromptSubmit` entry from the `hooks` object. Preserve all other hooks.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 46 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Disable Narrator Voice Output

To disable narrator voice output:

Step 1: Determine Scope

Check if the user said "locally", "for this directory", "for this project", or similar. If so, changes apply to the local config file in the current working directory.

  • Global (default): ~/.claude-code-narrator/config
  • Local: <cwd>/.claude-code-narrator/config

Step 2: Update State File

Global mode (default):

Read ~/.claude-code-narrator/config. If the file exists, use the Edit tool to change the enabled= line to enabled=false. If the file does not exist, create it with the Write tool containing just enabled=false.

Local mode:

Read <cwd>/.claude-code-narrator/config. If the file exists and has an enabled= line, use the Edit tool to change it to enabled=false. If the file exists but has no enabled= line, use the Edit tool to add enabled=false. If the file does not exist, create the <cwd>/.claude-code-narrator/ directory if needed, then create the config file with the Write tool containing just enabled=false.

To remove the local override entirely (reverting to global state), delete the <cwd>/.claude-code-narrator/ directory instead.

IMPORTANT: Do NOT use sed to edit state files — use the Read and Edit tools instead.

Step 3: Remove Auto-Hush Hook (global mode only)

Only for global mode: Read ~/.claude/settings.json. If it has a UserPromptSubmit hook that runs hush-on-input.sh, remove that entire UserPromptSubmit entry from the hooks object. Preserve all other hooks.

For local mode, do NOT remove the auto-hush hook (other sessions may still need it).

IMPORTANT: Do NOT remove other hooks — only remove the narrator UserPromptSubmit hook. Read the file first.

Step 4: Confirm

For global mode, inform the user: "Narrator is now disabled. Voice output is off."

For local mode, inform the user: "Narrator is now disabled for this directory. Global setting is unchanged."

Do NOT attempt to speak this confirmation (narrator is now off).

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.

off is a skill published in the GitHub repository shreyas-s-rao/claude-code-narrator (26 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 50 tokens to every session and 553 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (reads agent configuration directories). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
