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 B, and why

glab-config scanned grade B with 1 finding 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.

Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

Keep these env files outside version control, restrict their permissions (for example `chmod 600`), be mindful of backup exposure, and use least-privilege bot/service-account tokens.

Quick start

glab config --help

Per-host proxy configuration

Configure proxy for each GitLab host that requires a fixed proxy. This is useful when different GitLab instances (for example gitlab.com versus a self-hosted instance) require different proxy settings.

# Set the proxy for a specific host
glab config set proxy "http://proxy.example.com:8080" --host gitlab.mycompany.com

# Verify
glab config get proxy --host gitlab.mycompany.com

Precedence: A configured per-host proxy replaces environment-based proxy selection for that host. When it is unset, glab falls back to Go's standard HTTP_PROXY, HTTPS_PROXY, and NO_PROXY handling. proxy is host-scoped; use --host rather than writing a top-level value with --global.

Changes

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.
