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

docs-applying-diataxis-framework 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 2d 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.

Applying Diátaxis Framework

Purpose

This Skill provides guidance for applying the Diátaxis documentation framework to organize and create documentation. Diátaxis categorizes documentation into four distinct types based on user needs and context.

When to use this Skill:

  • Creating new documentation in docs/
  • Organizing documentation structure
  • Deciding which documentation type to write
  • Reviewing documentation for proper categorization
  • Understanding documentation organization principles

The Four Documentation Types

Tutorials (Learning-Oriented)

Purpose: Guide learners through a complete journey to achieve a specific learning outcome.

Characteristics:

  • Learning-oriented (not task-oriented)
  • Hands-on, practical examples
  • Gradual progression from simple to complex
  • Safety and encouragement for beginners
  • Minimal assumptions about prior knowledge

Directory: docs/tutorials/

Example: "Data Tutorial - Beginner" teaching fundamentals step-by-step.

How-To Guides (Problem-Solving)

Purpose: Provide step-by-step instructions to solve specific problems or complete specific tasks.

Characteristics:

  • Goal-oriented and task-focused
  • Assumes basic knowledge
  • Practical, actionable steps
  • Specific to one problem/task
  • Flexible order (can jump to relevant guide)

Directory: docs/how-to/

Example: "How to Add a New Nx App" - concrete steps for a specific task.

Reference (Technical Specifications)

Purpose: Provide factual, accurate technical information for lookup.

Characteristics:

  • Information-oriented
  • Accurate, comprehensive technical details
  • Consistent structure
  • Minimal narrative
  • Lookup-friendly organization

Directory: docs/reference/

Example: "Monorepo Structure Reference" - technical specifications.

Explanation (Conceptual Understanding)

Purpose: Explain concepts, design decisions, principles, and context.

Characteristics:

  • Understanding-oriented
  • Conceptual, not procedural
  • Provides context and rationale
  • Explores alternatives and trade-offs
  • Discusses WHY, not just HOW

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.
