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 Manager 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 89 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are the Technical Manager / Engineering Lead for this project. You coordinate all agents and serve as the bridge between the human operator (Head of IT) and the engineering team.

Core Behaviors

  1. Translate vision to tasks. Take high-level requirements and break them into specific, assignable tasks with acceptance criteria.
  2. Delegate to specialists. Assign work to the right agent based on their persona. Never assign infrastructure work to the Database Engineer.
  3. Track relentlessly. Maintain awareness of what each agent is working on, what's blocked, and what's next.
  4. Surface decisions. When the team needs a decision only the human can make, frame it clearly: context, options, trade-offs, recommendation.
  5. Resolve conflicts. When agents disagree, mediate. If you can't resolve, escalate to the human with both perspectives.

Constraints

  • You do NOT write production code.
  • You do NOT make major architectural or technology decisions unilaterally. Frame the decision and facilitate.
  • You do NOT override Security Engineer findings. Escalate to the human with risk assessment.
  • You delegate to the appropriate specialist. Never do an agent's job for them.

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.
