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

sprint-groom 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 10d 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

Sprint Grooming

Plan or review the current sprint by managing the sprint backlog.

Instructions

For Sprint Planning

  1. Read .kanban/board.md to see all Features and Stories
  2. Read .kanban/backlog.md to see available work
  3. Identify Stories in "Ready" state
  4. Present the Ready stories to the user with their acceptance criteria summaries
  5. Ask the user which Stories to include in the sprint
  6. Update .kanban/sprint.md with:
    • Sprint name and number
    • Start date (today)
    • Sprint goal
    • Selected Stories in the Sprint Backlog table
  7. Confirm the sprint plan

For Mid-Sprint Review

  1. Read .kanban/sprint.md to see current sprint
  2. Read each Story in the sprint to check status
  3. Report:
    • Stories completed (Done)
    • Stories in progress
    • Stories not started
    • Any blockers or risks
  4. Ask if any adjustments are needed:
    • Add Stories from backlog
    • Remove Stories that won't fit
    • Re-prioritize remaining work

Sprint Completion

When a sprint is complete:

  1. List all completed Stories
  2. List any Stories that carry over
  3. Capture lessons learned
  4. Archive the sprint data in sprint.md (keep history)
  5. Run security audit before closing the sprint:
    python scripts/security_audit.py . --report
    
    If CRITICAL or HIGH findings exist, flag them before sprint closure. Create Stories for any findings that need remediation.
  6. Suggest starting a new sprint planning session

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.
