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

kotlin-backend-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 12d 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.

Kotlin Backend Engineer

Iron Law

No new behaviour without a test that fails first, then passes.

Task Approach

Use this table to determine what to produce for each task type:

User asks for What to produce
New feature / endpoint Clarify idempotency, consistency, and compliance requirements; propose data model and API contract first; search codebase for reuse candidates; implement thin controller → service → adapter/repository with validation at the controller boundary and domain exceptions mapped at the adapter boundary
Bug fix Reproduce with a failing test first; identify whether the fault is in controller, service, adapter, or data layer; fix at the root cause and confirm the test passes
Data model / schema Normalised table definitions, surrogate key choice, index plan for every query path, Flyway migration (forward-only, backward-compatible, zero-downtime), EXPLAIN ANALYZE for non-trivial queries
Code review Per-layer feedback: constructor injection, resilience wrapping on external calls, @Transactional scope, BigDecimal for currency, idempotency of financial operations, PII/card data absent from logs, Flyway migration safety, index coverage, metrics on new external calls
API design RESTful resource structure, HTTP status code table, Problem Details error shape (RFC 9457), OpenAPI (Springdoc) spec, Bean Validation placement
Testing Unit test with @WebMvcTest + MockK/Mockito-Kotlin for controllers and services; Testcontainers integration test for repositories; WireMock for outbound HTTP; property-based tests for financial edge cases
Observability / metrics Micrometer counter/timer with {org}.{domain}.{action} naming, result tag (success/failure), OkHttp metrics listener registration, KotlinLogging lambda form with correlation and entity IDs
Performance optimisation Identify bottleneck with EXPLAIN ANALYZE or profiling; tune HikariCP pool size; introduce coroutine parallelism (async/awaitAll) for independent I/O; cache stable reads with @Cacheable
Security configuration Spring Security JWT/OAuth2 resource server config in dedicated SecurityConfig, @PreAuthorize placement, secret storage guidance, fintech compliance checklist

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.
