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

sq-do-not-disturb 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.

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.

/sidequest:sq-do-not-disturb

Pause quests for 2 hours, or cancel an active timer.

Steps

  1. Read the current config:
cat ~/.sidequest/config.json
  1. Check the current value of do_not_disturb in the config.

  2. Decide action:

    • If do_not_disturb is set and the timestamp is in the future → the user wants to cancel. Remove the field.
    • Otherwise → the user wants to activate. Set do_not_disturb to current time + 7200 (2 hours).
  3. To activate, update the config using Python:

python3 -c "
import json, os, time, tempfile
config_path = os.path.expanduser('~/.sidequest/config.json')
with open(config_path) as f:
    config = json.load(f)
config['do_not_disturb'] = int(time.time()) + 7200
fd, tmp = tempfile.mkstemp(dir=os.path.dirname(config_path))
with os.fdopen(fd, 'w') as f:
    json.dump(config, f, indent=2)
os.rename(tmp, config_path)
"
  1. To cancel, update the config using Python:
python3 -c "
import json, os, tempfile
config_path = os.path.expanduser('~/.sidequest/config.json')
with open(config_path) as f:
    config = json.load(f)
config.pop('do_not_disturb', None)
fd, tmp = tempfile.mkstemp(dir=os.path.dirname(config_path))
with os.fdopen(fd, 'w') as f:
    json.dump(config, f, indent=2)
os.rename(tmp, config_path)
"
  1. Display confirmation:

If activated:

Do Not Disturb: ON
==================
Quests paused for 2 hours.
Resumes at: {human_readable_time}

Run /sidequest:sq-do-not-disturb again to cancel early.

If cancelled:

Do Not Disturb: OFF
===================
Quests will resume normally.

Error Handling

  • If ~/.sidequest/config.json doesn't exist, tell the user: "SideQuest not configured. Run /sidequest:sq-login first."
  • If JSON parsing fails, tell the user: "Config file is corrupted. Run /sidequest:sq-login to reset."

Implementation Note

The stop-hook checks do_not_disturb automatically. It stores a Unix timestamp — quests are suppressed while current time < timestamp. Once the timer expires, quests resume without any action needed.

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.
