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

git-guide 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 5d 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.

Git Guide for Synergy Development

Inspect status, current branch and worktree ownership before editing or any Git mutation. Direct edits are allowed; preserve unrelated dirty and untracked files. Reuse an existing task worktree when it owns the branch. Do not switch or rebase a shared or pre-existing checkout without the user's explicit request. Do not stash, reset or clean shared work to move your changes.

Stage, commit, push, create a PR or mutate external systems only when the user requests that action. Do not use destructive Git commands, force pushes or hook bypasses without explicit authority and a reviewed recovery plan. Amend only your own unpushed task commit when requested or a hook modified intended content; never rewrite someone else's work.

Every agent-created commit ends with:

Co-authored-by: synergy-agent <[email protected]>

Protect Branches and Scope

  • Never push directly to the protected dev or main branches.
  • Local commits on dev or main are permitted when the user requests them, but they advance a potentially shared branch. Publish through a topic branch and open a pull request against dev.
  • The release workflow is the only path from dev to main.
  • Inspect git status before editing, staging, committing, rebasing, or publishing.
  • Preserve unrelated dirty and untracked files. Stage only explicit files owned by the current task.

Keep Internal Data Out of Outbound Text

Never expose the following in a commit message, pull-request body, issue/PR comment, or review:

Category Forbidden content
Local filesystem paths absolute home/project paths or home-relative checkout paths
Synergy runtime paths .synergy homes, temporary runtime/worktree locations, or SYNERGY_HOME values
Session and Scope identity session IDs, Scope IDs, or equivalent internal identifiers
Logs and diagnostics local log paths, raw logs, traces, and diagnostic artifacts
Credentials auth/config-store paths, API keys, tokens, secrets, or secret-like values
Internal configuration provider endpoints, MCP addresses, private service URLs, or equivalent deployment details

What ships with it

4 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.
