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

dashclaw-weekly 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 5d 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 — 60 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

DashClaw weekly digest

Turn the maintainer's log into a public weekly update Wes can paste to Reddit unmodified. The story is the experiment: an AI maintains this repo under a human-held constitution (MAINTAINER.md), and these are its receipts.

Gather (in order)

  1. Cursor: find the last <!-- digest-posted: YYYY-MM-DD --> marker in docs/maintainer-log.md. Cover everything after it. No marker → last 7 days. An explicit range in the user's args overrides both.
  2. Log entries: read the covered entries in docs/maintainer-log.md — they are the primary source (decisions, incidents, numbers).
  3. Commits: git log --oneline --no-merges --since=<cursor> on main — cross-check nothing shipped unlogged. If something did, say so in the digest (the gap is itself content) and append a catch-up log entry.
  4. Dogfood stats (best-effort, skip silently if unavailable): with a local instance running and DASHCLAW_API_KEY in .env.local, GET /api/policies/summary (30-day decision outcome counts — label the window honestly) and /api/policies/proposals (open tuning proposals). These are the "the product governs its own maintainer" numbers.

Compose

One fenced code block, ready to paste. No hard wraps — one line per paragraph, blank lines between (Wes's standing formatting rule for copyable text). Plain language; define DashClaw terms on first use; no internal codenames, file paths only when they're the point.

Sections, in order, dropping any that are empty this week:

  • Title: DashClaw maintainer update — week of <date> (+ version if one shipped)
  • TL;DR: 2-3 sentences.
  • Shipped: what landed, with version + one-line why-it-matters each.
  • Decisions: the why behind non-obvious calls, from the log.
  • Incident of the week: the most instructive failure, told straight — these are the credibility of the whole series. Never omit one that's in the log.
  • The AI is governed by the product: dogfood stats when available.
  • Next up: the next roadmap item, one line.
  • Links: repo, MAINTAINER.md, docs/plans/owner-roadmap.md, docs/maintainer-log.md.

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.
