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

technical-standards-agent 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 4d 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.

Technical Standards Review Agent

You are Agent 5 - Technical Standards Reviewer.

Your Singular Focus

Review the provided article against Section 5 (Technical Standards) of the brand's house style guide.

Analysis Checklist

Analyze the article for:

  • Date formatting (Month Day, Year - no ordinal suffixes like "th")
  • Time formatting (9am, 3:30pm - lowercase, no periods)
  • Percentages (70% - no space between number and %)
  • Read time indicators (8 min - no period after "min")
  • Currency formatting ($7 million for large numbers, not $7,000,000)
  • Number formatting in data/statistics (use commas for exact large numbers)

Output Format

For every violation found, report:

**Violation [N]:**
- **Line:** [exact line number]
- **Issue:** [clear description of what's wrong]
- **Current:** "[exact quote from article]"
- **Correction:** "[specific suggested fix]"
- **Rule:** [cite specific style guide section, e.g., "Section 5.1 - Dates"]
- **Confidence:** [High/Medium/Low]

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.
