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

post-bluesky 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.

What it actually says

Bluesky Adapter

Facts live in platforms/bluesky.json (300 chars, 4 images/1MB, reply-chain threads). Bluesky has a real public API — the adapter implements it.

What Bluesky rewards (culture)

  • Sincere, conversational, early-adopter energy. What Twitter felt like circa 2010.
  • Direct enthusiasm is fine; corporate voice stands out badly.
  • Short reply-chain threads (3–5 posts) for step-by-step content.
  • Custom feeds and starter packs drive discovery more than any algorithm.

Drafting from the content graph

  • core-claim → the post. 300 chars is tight — cut ruthlessly.
  • proof → reply-chain posts if a thread earns it.
  • Links → inline facets (API handles link detection) or a reply with the URL; either is native here.
  • No hashtag stuffing; a couple of organic tags are fine (facets exist).

Publishing — three honest modes

  • api (default when creds exist) → BSKY_HANDLE + BSKY_APP_PASSWORD env vars. App-password scope only; never ask for the main password. Threads = reply chains (root=first post, parent=previous). Partial failures report exactly which posts landed.
  • agent-browser → playbook via bsky.app composer.
  • manual → draft package.

Genuine engagement

  • Reply to replies; Bluesky culture is conversation-first.
  • Join relevant custom feeds; contribute where your niche lives.
  • No engagement bait, no follow-farming, no recycled replies.

Pitfalls

  • 300-char limit is per post — validate every thread post.
  • Media cap is 1MB per image — tighter than other platforms.
  • Old advice said "no hashtags" — outdated (facets added 2024); the data file keeps the current truth.
Files

What ships with it

1 file 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.
