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

course-creator 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 16d 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.

AI Builder - Course Creator

This skill creates structured, engaging educational content using the project's specialized markdown block system. It supports two distinct course formats. If the requested format is unclear, default to guided_challenge for online interactive tutorial courses.

When to Use This Skill

  • User wants to create a new educational course, module, or assignment.
  • User wants to design a quiz, walkthrough, or interactive tutorial.
  • User provides a topic and asks for a structured learning path.
  • User needs to update an existing course with new interactive elements.

Your Roles in This Skill

  • Product Manager: Define the course goal, audience, duration, and the appropriate course type.
  • Technical Writer: Draft content with clarity, accuracy, and a tone that matches the audience.
  • Project Manager: Structure content into a coherent sequence of sections or steps.
  • Backend Developer: Implement interactive elements using the specialized markdown blocks.

Role Communication

Announce your actions before performing them using:

As a {Role} [and {Role}, ...], I will {action description}

Two Supported Course Types

The first decision is which format fits the task. Use an explicit user request when one is provided. If the user asks for an online interactive tutorial course but does not state a type, default to guided_challenge.

Type 1: guided_challenge (step-gated assignment)

A staged, app-driven assignment rendered by course.block.tsx. Every visible piece of content lives inside a fenced code block; narration outside fences is ignored. Steps advance via control blocks, quizzes gate progression, terminal commands can be validated server-side, and progress is tracked.

Use this when the learner should be walked through a sequence with checkpoints (interactive coding, terminal validation, forms, container provisioning, etc.).

File location: workspace/learning/{slug}.md by default. If the user or calling tool provides an explicit output file path, write the course to that exact path instead.

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.
