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

reminders 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 1mo 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.

Reminders

Use this for Apple Reminders tasks. Prefer rem over Things/AppleScript when the user wants an AI-friendly personal todo backend on macOS.

Tool

  • CLI: rem
  • Repo: https://github.com/BRO3886/rem
  • Install:
GOBIN=/opt/homebrew/bin go install github.com/BRO3886/rem/cmd/rem@latest

rem uses EventKit for normal reads/writes. It may need Reminders permission for the calling app in System Settings > Privacy & Security.

Start

Check access:

rem lists -o json
rem today -o json

Use JSON for anything scripted or verified:

rem list --incomplete -o json
rem search "flight" -o json
rem show <id> -o json

Add Tasks

Default: add directly, then verify by search/show.

rem add "Book LHR-SFO nonstop business flight" --due "tomorrow 9am" --priority high --notes "Nonstop only." -o json
rem search "LHR-SFO" -o json

Useful flags:

  • --list "Name": target list
  • --due "tomorrow 9am": due date/time; natural language is supported
  • --priority high|medium|low|none
  • --notes "text"
  • --url https://...
  • --silent: due date without notification
  • --remind-me 15m: alarm before due time
  • --repeat daily|weekly|monthly|yearly

Update / Complete / Delete

Find the UUID first, then mutate by id or unique short id:

rem search "flight" -o json
rem update <id> --name "New title" --due "friday 2pm" --notes "..." -o json
rem complete <id> -o json
rem delete <id> --force

Always read back after writes; do not trust exit status alone.

Lists

rem lists --count -o json
rem list-mgmt create "Travel"
rem list-mgmt rename "Old" "New"
rem list-mgmt delete "Name" --force

Conventions

  • Use executable task titles. Rewrite vague notes into the next concrete action.
  • Preserve user wording when they clearly want verbatim capture.
  • Split multiple unrelated actions into separate reminders.
  • Use the default list unless the user names a list or the category is obvious.
  • Do not add calendar events here; use calendar tooling instead.
  • For current date math, run date; do not guess.

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.
