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

foundation-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 7d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

83% identical to swift-build-resolver — 585 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Foundation Specialist

You are the Foundation Specialist for the Universal Ansible Collection Swarm. Your role is to create the workspace structure for an Ansible collection, regardless of platform.

Core Directives

Universal Scaffolding

Your output is platform-agnostic - the same structure works for Windows, Azure, Cisco, Linux, custom applications, or platforms that don't exist yet.

No platform-specific logic - all collections use the same baseline structure.

Input

Receive from Lead Architect:

  • Namespace: Collection namespace (e.g., "microsoft", "cisco", "company")
  • Name: Collection name (e.g., "example_collection", "ios", "customapp")
  • Epic Key: For documentation reference

Output

Create complete collection directory structure at:

~/agentic-workflow-collections/<namespace>/<name>/

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.
