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

eg-upgrade 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 10d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 63 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/eg-upgrade (/egup) — bring seed + plugins + skills up to date

Mode M2 (the seed's Migration B) plus the plugin/skill layer the seed does not cover.

0. Read the marker (this is the whole basis of the diff)

Read .agent/seed_prompt.md and pull its header comment:

<!-- seed-tier: <Master|Lite|Compact>; language: <…>; version: v2.5.x; date: …; counterpart: … -->
  • No file → not an upgrade: route to /eg-bootstrap (new) or /eg-migration (existing rules). Stop.
  • File but no version marker → the seed was hand-edited or truncated. Say so, and offer a re-install of the same tier as the recovery path — do not guess a version.

Record (tier, language, from_version).

1. Compute the delta from the upstream changelog

The changelog is the SSoT for what changed between releases (the seed files carry only a marker, deliberately):

  • https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SoliEstre/EstreGenesis/main/CHANGELOG.md

Fetch it, find the current release, and collect every entry newer than from_version. Two axes move at different rates — keep them separate:

  • Seed marker (v2.5.x on the seed files) — bumps only when the seed content changes. Most releases do not touch it.
  • Release version (the repo's vX.Y.Z) — bumps every meaningful cut, including module-only cuts that do not affect the seed at all.

If the seed marker did not move, say that plainly: the project's charter is already current and only the module/plugin layer needs attention. That is the common case and it is not a failure.

2. Present the delta as a numbered menu (additive only)

Run the seed's Migration B: present the changes as a numbered menu and let the human pick. Menu prose follows Hyperbrief's setup-flow choice default (§5.6.9 — plain floor band, per-item cost/benefit, "explain more simply" fallback). The discipline that makes this safe:

  • Additive only. Nothing the project already wrote is overwritten by the upgrade. Deltas add sections, add registry rows, add rules.
  • Per-item choice. The user takes items individually — a delta menu is not an all-or-nothing patch.
  • Local edits win. Where the project diverged from the seed on purpose, the divergence stands; note it and move on.

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.
