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

vibe-gc 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 3d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 178 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

When to invoke

Use when the owner asks to clean up, slim down or audit what is installed around the agent: too many skills, noisy hooks, a long permission list, a bloated ~/.claude, or a periodic (roughly monthly) configuration review. It is not for cleaning project source code, chat history or the pack's own skills — ./install already prunes skills the pack withdrew.

The skill is audit-only by default. Nothing moves until the owner confirms that one item, and every move is a soft delete with a logged undo.

Step 1: Scan

"${VIBESTACK_HOME:-$HOME/.vibestack}/bin/vibe-gc" scan --days 30

Each row is id channel path signal size_kb mtime confidence, ranked high → low, then by size, at most 20 rows. A shorter batch is the point: this runs periodically, not exhaustively. Show the rows as a numbered table. When the scan prints nothing, say the configuration is clean and stop.

What the channels mean:

  • skills — directories in ~/.claude/skills, ~/.agents/skills, ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.kiro/skills or ~/.copilot/skills ($COPILOT_HOME/skills when set) that the root's .vibestack-manifest does not claim. A missing or empty SKILL.md is high confidence; a name that repeats another root's skill is low. usage: unmeasured means no usage data exists for that root — it never makes an item more disposable.
  • hooks — scripts under ~/.claude/hooks/ that nothing in the user settings.json / settings.local.json and no other hook script references. A project's own .claude/settings.json is not read, so confirm before trashing a hook a project may call.
  • permissions — duplicate permissions.allow entries and Bash(...) entries already covered by Bash(*). The scan only reports them.
  • mcp — configured servers. The bin cannot see whether a server is live.
  • caches — file-history, shell-snapshots and the skills.old / skills.staging.* entries an interrupted install leaves beside a skills root, older than --days.

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.
