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

cognitive-work-alignment-check 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 9d 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.

认知-工作对齐检查(cognitive-work-alignment-check)

设计意图:你的认知体系(L1.5原则 + L1文档)应该是所有判断和行动的根基。 如果某项工作无法追溯到任何 L1.5 原则或 L1 文档,它就是「漂浮工作」—— 做完了,但没有认知依据,也无法通过工作反哺认知体系。

认知科学依据:元认知监控(Flavell, 1979)—— 意识到「我为什么这么判断」比「我判断了什么」更重要。


知识导航表(执行前阅读)

层级 文档 用途
D0 认知根 cognitive/L0_brain_map.md 了解当前认知体系的全貌(有哪些 L1 文档,覆盖哪些领域)
D0 原则 cognitive/L1.5_principles/principles.md 已确认的底层原则列表(对齐检查的基准)

激活后立即执行

Step 0  读取认知基准
        Read: cognitive/L0_brain_map.md
        → 提取:当前有哪些 L1 文档(按领域列出)
        Read: cognitive/L1.5_principles/principles.md
        → 提取:已确认的原则列表(标记 ✅ 状态的)

Step 1【γ】 确认检查范围(用户选择)

        询问用户:「你想检查哪个工作领域的对齐情况?」
        选项:
          A. 最近完成的具体任务(用户描述)
          B. 某个持续进行的工作领域(用户描述)
          C. 全部工作领域(若用户有工作域定义文档)
        
        等待用户选择后继续。

Step 2【α】 逐项对齐检查

        对每个工作产出/决策,执行:
        
        2a. 「这个工作的目标是什么?」
            → 用一句话陈述
        
        2b. 「这个目标/方法,可以追溯到哪条 L1.5 原则?」
            → 从 principles.md 中找到最相关的原则
            → 若找到:标记「✅ 对齐,来源:[原则编号] [原则名称]」
            → 若未找到:继续到 2c
        
        2c. 「这个目标/方法,可以追溯到哪个 L1 文档中的概念?」
            → 从 cognitive/L1_knowledge/ 中找到最相关的文档章节
            → 若找到:标记「✅ 对齐,来源:[文档名] [章节]」
            → 若未找到:标记「⚠️ 漂浮工作,无认知根」

Step 3【α】 生成对齐报告

        输出格式:
        
        ## 认知-工作对齐报告
        
        ### ✅ 已对齐的工作
        | 工作产出 | 认知根 | 对应文档/原则 |
        |---------|--------|------------|
        | ... | L1.5 P[N] | [原则名] |
        | ... | L1 文档 | [文档名][章节] |
        
        ### ⚠️ 漂浮工作(无认知根)
        | 工作产出 | 当前状态 | 建议行动 |
        |---------|---------|---------|
        | ... | 无法追溯 | 选项A/B/C(见下文)|
        
        ### 🔍 认知缺口(工作揭示的 L1/L1.5 空白)
        | 发现的空白 | 建议填补方式 |
        |-----------|------------|
        | ... | 运行 cognitive-capture-fragment 记录碎片 |
        | ... | 运行 cognitive-extract-principle 提炼原则 |

Step 4【γ】 处理漂浮工作(用户决策)

        对每项「漂浮工作」,请用户选择:
        
        A. 「这个工作有认知根,只是我没有写进 L1/L1.5,现在补上」
           → 触发 cognitive-capture-fragment(记录对应认知碎片)
        
        B. 「这个工作确实是漂浮的,未来应该先建立认知根再行动」
           → 记录到 cognitive/L3_logs/todo.md(待整合的认知缺口)
        
        C. 「这个工作属于执行层(不需要认知根)」
           → 标记为「执行层工作,豁免对齐检查」

Step 5【α】 更新系统日志

        追加到 cognitive/L3_logs/system_log.md:
        格式:[LOG-YYYYMMDD-NN] cognitive-work-alignment-check |
              对齐报告:✅X项 ⚠️Y项漂浮 🔍Z个认知缺口 | L0地图/L1.5原则库

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.
