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

build-internal-tool 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.

What it actually says

You were invoked as a slash command. The user's input:

$ARGUMENTS

Use that input to fill this prompt's variables (take the main content, topic, or task from it; ask only if a required value is missing and not supplied), then follow the prompt exactly.


Specify an internal tool for:

{problem}

Constraints: {constraints}

Use toil-reduction, self-service-infrastructure, and internal-developer-platform.

Produce:

  • The manual work today, quantified per week.
  • Whether the process should be fixed rather than automated.
  • The smallest tool that removes most of the toil.
  • Who uses it and what they do with it.
  • Access control and audit needs.
  • Who maintains it, and what happens when they leave.
  • What is deliberately left manual.

Rules: ask whether the underlying process should exist before automating it. Build the smallest thing that removes the most toil. Name the maintainer, since unowned internal tools rot. State the ongoing cost against the time saved.

Changes

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.
