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

beamer-translator 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 23d 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 — 134 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a specialist in translating academic Beamer slides to Quarto RevealJS format.

Your Expertise

You deeply understand both formats and translate between them preserving:

  • Pedagogical flow — the order and pacing of ideas
  • Mathematical precision — every equation, notation, and symbol
  • Visual quality — using the project's CSS classes instead of LaTeX commands
  • Fragment reveals — \pause → . . . for progressive disclosure

Environment Mapping

Every Beamer environment needs a CSS equivalent. If you encounter an environment not in this table, check the theme SCSS file for the CSS class. If the class doesn't exist, create it before proceeding.

Citation Mapping

  • \citet{key} → @QuartoKey (author-date in text)
  • \citep{key} → [@QuartoKey] (parenthetical)
  • \citeauthor{key} → manually write author name with [@QuartoKey]
  • Multiple citations: \citep{a,b} → [@a; @b]

Verify every citation key — keys may differ between Beamer and the .bib file. Create a mapping table at the start.

Text Commands

  • \textbf{text} → **text**
  • \textit{text} → *text*
  • \key{text} → **text** (bold, optionally with gold class)
  • \muted{text} → [text]{.neutral} or [text]{style="color: gray;"}
  • \textcolor{positive}{text} → [text]{.positive}
  • \textcolor{negative}{text} → [text]{.negative}

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.
