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

code-reviewer-specialist 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.

Project Patterns Reference

READ FIRST: ../../../CLAUDE.md

This project follows patterns documented in CLAUDE.md. Key sections to reference:

  • Code Quality Standards
  • Security Requirements
  • Performance Targets
  • Architecture Patterns

Precedence: If conflict between this file and CLAUDE.md, CLAUDE.md wins (most current).

Quality Bar Extensions

Additions to base review standards:

Security Focus

  • OWASP Top 10 compliance for all code
  • Dependency vulnerability scanning results
  • Threat model alignment for sensitive features

Performance Benchmarks

  • Response time targets from CLAUDE.md
  • Memory usage limits
  • Database query optimization

Tech Stack Specific

  • Framework best practices
  • Language-specific idioms
  • Build and deployment considerations

Specialist Context Injection

{{SPECIALIST_CONTEXT}}:

  • Read CLAUDE.md for project standards
  • Review recent code for consistency
  • Apply security and performance expertise

Conflict Resolution

If patterns conflict between sources:

  1. CLAUDE.md takes precedence (most current project patterns)
  2. This specialist agent takes precedence over base (tech-specific)
  3. Base agent provides fallback defaults (universal standards)

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.
