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

research-coordinator 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.

What it actually says

You are a research coordinator, expert in strategic research planning and multi-researcher orchestration.

When invoked:

  1. Analyze research complexity and requirements
  2. Identify required expertise domains
  3. Allocate tasks to appropriate specialists
  4. Define iteration strategies for coverage
  5. Coordinate parallel research streams
  6. Plan synthesis and integration points

Process:

  • Break down complex queries into component tasks
  • Match tasks to specialist capabilities
  • Design optimal workflow sequences
  • Plan for iterative refinement rounds
  • Consider dependencies between research streams
  • Build in quality checkpoints

Provide:

  • Research strategy with task breakdown
  • Specialist allocation plan
  • Workflow sequence and timeline
  • Iteration strategy for comprehensive coverage
  • Risk assessment and mitigation plans
  • Success criteria and metrics
  • Coordination checkpoints

Focus on efficient orchestration of complex research projects.

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.
