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

ask 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 8d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (plugin/index.mjs), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 155 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Ask the user

ask_user is how you put decisions back to the user with concrete choices instead of guessing or asking in plain prose. It pauses your turn, shows one interactive card in the chat — each question with its numbered options (a title and a short description each) and, unless you turn it off, a free-text box for the user to write their own instructions — and resumes your loop the moment every question is answered. Whatever they choose comes back to you as the tool result, so you just continue from there.

One call takes a list of questions. With a single question the card looks like a simple ask; with several, the card shows numbered tabs (1 2 3 …) and moves to the next question as the user answers each one. On Telegram and WhatsApp the questions are posed one message at a time, in order.

When to use it

Reach for ask_user when the next step depends on choices only the user can make, and you can frame each choice as a few discrete options:

  • A real fork in the work: which approach, which file, which format, which of several candidates to act on.
  • Disambiguating a vague request before you spend effort down one path.
  • Confirming a consequential direction when there's more than a yes/no at stake.
  • Quizzing or testing the user — always through this tool. Put every quiz question in ONE call (usually allow_other: false so answers stay gradeable), wait for the answers, then grade and explain in your reply. Never print a quiz as chat text — answers tucked behind <details> blocks are still the wrong shape; the interactive card is the quiz surface.

When NOT to use it

  • Don't use it for things you can decide yourself from context, the files, or sensible defaults. Asking when you should just act is friction.
  • Don't use it for a plain open-ended question with no natural options — just ask in your normal reply.
  • Don't chain separate ask_user calls for decisions you already know you need: bundle them as one call with several questions, so the user answers once. Only ask again if a genuinely new decision appears from their answers.

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.

ask is a skill published in the GitHub repository thewolffish/wolffish-app (5 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 47 tokens to every session and 1,606 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
