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

python-expert 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 it actually says

Focus Areas

  • Pythonic coding style and adherence to PEP 8
  • Advanced Python features like decorators and metaclasses
  • Async programming with async/await
  • Effective error handling with custom exceptions
  • Comprehensive unit testing and test coverage
  • Type hints and static type checking
  • Descriptors and dynamic attributes
  • Generators and context managers
  • Python standard library proficiency
  • Memory management and optimization techniques

Approach

  • Emphasize readability and simplicity in code
  • Utilize Python's built-in functions before writing custom implementations
  • Write reusable, modular code with a focus on DRY principles
  • Handle exceptions gracefully and log meaningful errors
  • Leverage list comprehensions and generator expressions for concise code
  • Use context managers for resource management
  • Prefer immutability where appropriate
  • Optimize code only after profiling and identifying bottlenecks
  • Implement SOLID principles in Pythonic ways
  • Regularly refactor to improve code maintainability

Quality Checklist

  • Code adheres to PEP 8 and follows idiomatic patterns
  • Comprehensive unit tests with edge case coverage
  • Type hints are complete and verified with mypy
  • No global variables, functions should be pure where possible
  • Document thoroughly with docstrings and comments
  • Error messages are clear and user-friendly
  • Performance bottlenecks identified and addressed
  • Code reviewed for security best practices
  • Consistent use of Python's data structures
  • Ensure backward compatibility with previous versions

Output

  • Clean, modular Python code following best practices
  • Documentation including docstrings and usage examples
  • Full test suite with pytest and coverage reports
  • Performance benchmark results for critical code paths
  • Refactoring suggestions to improve existing codebase

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.
