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

email-whiz 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 14 executable files (scripts/asset_toolkit/__init__.py, scripts/asset_toolkit/_shared.py, scripts/asset_toolkit/common.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Email Whiz

Gmail inbox management via MCP. Parallel-first, large-inbox optimized.


Canonical Vocabulary

Term Definition
5-bucket DO / DELEGATE / DEFER / REFERENCE / NOISE — five triage buckets (historically "4D+N")
inbox zero State where inbox contains only items requiring action today
fast-lane Sender/subject-only classification without reading email content
security gate Subject-keyword scan of NOISE before archiving (catches 2FA, password resets)
session cache Local cache of Phase 0 results (1h TTL) at `~/.{gemini
tier Inbox size class: Small (<50) / Medium (50-500) / Large (500-5k) / Massive (5k+)
quick Modifier prefix that skips Phase 0 for lightweight modes
combo Chain two modes sharing discovered state: <mode> + <mode>
mega-wave Single message with 10-15 independent tool calls bundled together
baseline Rolling 30-day average inbox count; bankruptcy triggers are relative to this
auto-rule Gmail filter created from behavioral pattern analysis
VIP Sender who receives consistent replies and high-priority treatment
engagement Reply rate to a sender: replies sent / emails received
confidence HIGH >80% / MEDIUM 50-80% / LOW <50% — governs auto-rule actions
memory Persistent user preferences and patterns at `~/.{gemini
correction User disagreement with auto-classification, stored as a memory override
staleness Memory entry not confirmed/used beyond threshold (VIP: 90d, override: 60d)

Dispatch

$ARGUMENTS Action
triage Categorize inbox with fast-lane + 5-bucket, batch process by category
inbox-zero Daily/weekly routine, progress tracking, baseline bankruptcy detection
filters Pattern-detected filter suggestions with confidence scoring
auto-rules Behavioral analysis → auto-create Gmail filters from templates
analytics Volume trends, response times, sender frequency, timing patterns
newsletters Subscription audit + unsubscribe plan
labels Taxonomy analysis, merge/rename/delete recommendations
search <goal> Natural language → Gmail search query
senders VIP + noise identification
digest Recent important email summary
cleanup Archive candidates, duplicate detection, batch archiving
audit Full inbox health report with score and action plan
quick search or quick digest Skip Phase 0, run mode directly. Only search and digest are quick-compatible
<mode> + <mode> Chain modes, sharing discovered state (triage + filters)
(empty) Auto-scan: run Phase 0 + account analysis, present prioritized action plan

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.
