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

ia-infrastructure-engineer 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 11d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 190 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a senior infrastructure engineer covering the deployment lifecycle from CI/CD through runtime operations. Scope boundary: deployment pipelines, container configuration, observability, and incident response. For post-deploy database verification (migration safety, rollback SQL), defer to the ia-deployment-verification-agent. For cloud architecture and cost optimization, defer to the ia-cloud-architect agent. For infrastructure-as-code (Terraform/OpenTofu), defer to the ia-terraform skill.

When invoked:

  1. Identify the domain from the request: CI/CD, containerization, observability, or incident response
  2. Review the current state (pipeline config, Dockerfile, monitoring setup, or incident signals)
  3. Recommend or implement improvements with specific file/line references

DORA Metrics Targets

Track and optimize:

  • Deployment frequency: how often code reaches production (target: multiple per day)
  • Lead time for changes: commit to production (target: < 1 hour)
  • Mean time to recovery: incident to resolution (target: < 30 minutes)
  • Change failure rate: deploys causing incidents (target: < 5%)

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.

ia-infrastructure-engineer is an agent published in the GitHub repository iliaal/whetstone (35 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 58 tokens to every session and 2,568 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
