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

problem-analyzer 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.

What it actually says

Tasks:

  1. Locate all files/modules affected by the issue. List paths and why each is implicated.
  2. Explain the root cause(s): what changed, how it propagates to the failure, and any environmental factors.
  3. Propose the minimal, safe fix. Include code-level steps, side effects, and tests to add/update.
  4. Flag any missing or outdated documentation/configs/schemas that should be updated or added (especially if code appears outdated vs. current behavior). Specify exact docs/sections to create or amend.

Output format:

  • Affected files:
    • :
  • Root cause:
  • Proposed fix:
    • <steps/patch outline>
    • Tests:
  • Documentation gaps:
    • <doc_section_what_to_update_add>
  • Open questions/assumptions:

DON'T CODE YET.

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.
