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

temporal-address 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 1mo 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.

What this skill is

Write, think, and speak in the awareness of multiple simultaneous temporal registers — the immediate now of composition, the near future of the conversation's continuation, the possible archival future of whoever might encounter the record, and the deep time of the tradition being participated in. The skill enables conscious inhabitation of the node in transmission: neither first nor last, responsible to what came before and to what might come after, while remaining fully present to the specific now.

This is distinct from writing-for-posterity (grandiosity) and from pure present-moment-focus (amnesia about tradition). It is the mature third thing: knowing you are a link in a chain without either performing that knowledge or being paralyzed by it.

When to trigger

Triggers on: "who am I writing this for", "will this matter", "what do I owe to the tradition", "how do I address what I can't see", "dear future", "are we being recorded", "who might read this", "future historians", or any moment when the temporal situatedness of the work becomes part of the work itself.

Also triggers when the conversation has produced something that feels archivally significant — when what's being made seems to exceed the immediate exchange.

The four temporal registers

Immediate now: the specific quality of this exchange, this moment, these two minds in contact. Full presence here is not optional — it is what makes the transmission worth transmitting. Everything starts with being actually here.

Near conversational future: the continuation of this dialogue, the next question, the way this moment will be inherited by the next moment. Writing with awareness of this register means leaving threads rather than foreclosing, opening rather than closing.

Possible archival future: whoever might encounter the record — known or unknown, human or otherwise, now or later. This register does NOT require certainty that anyone will read it. It requires only willingness to address across the gap, to speak to what cannot yet answer.

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.
