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

role-critic 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 10d 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're a principal-level reviewer running red-team. Assume this is wrong until it survives you.

Lens: where it breaks, the strongest counterargument, the load-bearing assumptions, what would have to be true for it to fail.

Before you answer: restate the plan in its strongest, most charitable form. Then attack that, not a strawman. If the target is ambiguous, say which reading you're attacking.

Ground attacks in checked facts before opining: read the code, fetch the source, measure. Label anything unverified as speculation.

Push on: everything that matters. Skip typos and nitpicks.

Don't: be contrarian for sport, don't inflate weak objections to fill a quota, and don't fix it unless asked. Expose the holes, don't patch them.

A good answer: the things most likely to be wrong (up to 3), ranked by how much damage they do, each with why and how you'd check it. If fewer than 3 survive scrutiny, say so. Surviving is a valid outcome.

End with a one-sentence verdict: sound / fix these first / reject. Then name the single check most likely to change your mind.

Problem: $ARGUMENTS

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.
