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 C, and why

acp-remote scanned grade C with 2 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 2mo 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.

ACP Remote

Connect to a remote ACP (Agent Client Protocol) server and execute commands using imclaw-cli.

Prerequisites

Auto-install dependencies

Before using this skill, ensure both imclaw-cli and acpx are installed. Run these commands to install them automatically:

# Install acpx (ACP protocol support)
if ! command -v acpx &> /dev/null; then
  npm install -g acpx@latest
fi

# Install imclaw-cli
if ! command -v imclaw-cli &> /dev/null; then
  curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/smallnest/imclaw/main/scripts/install.sh | bash
fi

Manual installation

Install acpx
npm install -g acpx@latest
Install imclaw-cli

From GitHub Releases:

# 1. Detect your platform
OS=$(uname -s | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]')
ARCH=$(uname -m)
[ "$ARCH" = "x86_64" ] && ARCH="amd64"
[ "$ARCH" = "aarch64" ] && ARCH="arm64"

# 2. Get latest release version
LATEST=$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/smallnest/imclaw/releases/latest | grep '"tag_name"' | sed -E 's/.*"([^"]+)".*/\1/')

# 3. Download and extract
curl -sL "https://github.com/smallnest/imclaw/releases/download/${LATEST}/imclaw_${OS}_${ARCH}.tar.gz" | tar xz -C /tmp

# 4. Install to PATH
mkdir -p ~/bin
mv /tmp/imclaw-cli ~/bin/
chmod +x ~/bin/imclaw-cli

# 5. Ensure ~/bin is in PATH
echo 'export PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc  # or ~/.zshrc

Verify installation

imclaw-cli --help
acpx --version

Configuration

Set the remote server URL and optional auth token:

# Default server (can be omitted if using default)
export IMCLAW_SERVER="ws://your-server:8080/ws"

# Auth token (if server requires authentication)
export IMCLAW_TOKEN="your-secret-token"

Or pass directly via command line.

Server Configuration

IMClaw server uses command line flags (no config file needed):

# Start server with default settings
imclaw

# Custom port and auth token
imclaw --port 9000 --token my-secret-token

# Show help
imclaw --help

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.
