Getting it into your agent
This one installs as part of its plugin. Adding the marketplace and installing the plugin brings it with everything else the plugin ships.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00083 | $0.00417 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00033 | $0.00167 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00017 | $0.00083 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00042 |
Grade A, and why
inbox scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
What it actually says
terminalhire:inbox
One triage surface for everything waiting on the developer: pending invitations, unread chats, and their connections — the in-session counterpart of the th inbox interactive TUI (which they run themselves in a plain terminal; NEVER launch that raw-mode TUI from a skill).
This skill is a thin front door over the same flow as terminalhire:chat — follow that skill's picker pattern:
- Get current state via the bundled engine (never a global PATH binary):
node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/dist/bin/jpi-dispatch.js" chat --inbox
- If anything is actionable, present ONE
AskUserQuestionlist — most-actionable first:Accept @<login>for each pending invitation (→… intro --accept @<login>),Open @<login> · 💬 N unread(→… chat <login> --read), then read connections, plus a plain escape option ("Just show the inbox"). - After a pick, run the matching command inline and report; offer a reply (
… chat <login> --send "…") or chain to the next item. - If the user prefers to drive it themselves, point them at
th inbox— the full-screen interactive inbox (arrow keys, Enter to open a thread, Esc back, accept/decline invitations inline) for their own terminal.
Privacy is unchanged from the chat skill: E2E messages, ciphertext-only wire, web-session cookie auth — the GitHub token never leaves the machine.
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.
