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

git-workflow-and-versioning 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 9d 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 — 80 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Overview

Git history is documentation. A clear commit history enables fast debugging, safe reverts, and meaningful changelogs. This skill enforces the habits that make git useful as a tool rather than just a backup system.

When to Use

  • Before starting any branch
  • Before committing changes
  • Before creating a PR
  • When tagging a release

Process

Step 1: Branch naming

Use: <type>/<description> — e.g., feat/user-search, fix/login-redirect, chore/update-deps Types: feat, fix, docs, chore, refactor, perf, test

Step 2: Commit messages

Follow Conventional Commits:

<type>(<scope>): <description>

[optional body]
[optional footer]

Examples:

  • feat(auth): add OAuth2 login with Google
  • fix(api): handle null user_id in /profile endpoint
  • perf(db): add index on users.email column

Rules:

  • Description is imperative mood ("add" not "added")
  • Under 72 characters
  • One logical change per commit
  • Reference ticket: Closes #123

Step 3: Keep PRs small

A PR should be reviewable in under 30 minutes. If it takes longer, it's too big. Split it.

  • One logical change per PR
  • No PRs with 500+ line diffs (with rare exceptions)
  • No WIP code in a PR

Step 4: PR description

Every PR must have:

  • What changed (not a list of files, but a description of the change)
  • Why it changed
  • How to test it
  • Screenshots for UI changes
  • Link to the ticket

Step 5: Semantic versioning

MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH

  • MAJOR: breaking change (removing an API, changing a contract)
  • MINOR: backward-compatible new feature
  • PATCH: backward-compatible bug fix

Tag releases: git tag v1.2.3 -m "Release 1.2.3"

Step 6: Git hygiene

  • Never force push to main/master
  • Never commit secrets (use pre-commit hooks: gitleaks, detect-secrets)
  • Rebase feature branches on main before merging (or squash)
  • Delete branches after merge

Verification Requirements

  • Branch follows naming convention
  • Commits follow Conventional Commits format
  • PR has description with: what, why, how to test
  • PR is reviewable in under 30 minutes
  • No secrets committed (pre-commit hook confirms)
  • Release tagged with semantic version

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.
