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

significant-change 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 7d 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.

/grc:significant-change

Analyze whether a system change qualifies as "significant" and determine the required actions.

Usage

/grc:significant-change [framework?] [change-description]

The user describes the change in the prompt or as an argument.

Arguments

  • framework (optional): fedramp, nist, fisma. Defaults to fedramp.
  • change-description: Free-text description of the system change (can be inline or pasted after invoking).

Examples

/grc:significant-change fedramp We are migrating our database from self-managed PostgreSQL to AWS RDS
/grc:significant-change We are adding a new API gateway in front of our application
/grc:significant-change fedramp Upgrading from RHEL 8 to RHEL 9 across all production servers
/grc:significant-change Our ISSO is leaving and we are assigning a new ISSO
/grc:significant-change Adding a new interconnection to an agency's identity provider

Behavior

When invoked:

  1. Display the Data Sensitivity Notice at the top of every response (see SKILL.md Data Handling section). Users may describe system architecture details.

  2. Read the appropriate reference files:

    • skills/grc-knowledge/audits/significant-change-criteria.md for the decision criteria and category definitions
    • Framework file from skills/grc-knowledge/frameworks/ if framework-specific parameters are needed
  3. Classify the change:

    • Walk through the significant change decision tree from the reference file
    • Determine the change category (1-5) or determine it is not significant
    • Explain the rationale for the classification
  4. If significant, provide:

    a. Change Category Which of the 5 categories it falls into and why.

    b. Affected Control Families List the control families impacted by this change, using the control-to-change-type mapping from the reference file.

    c. Required Actions — Before the Change Specific steps to take before implementing (SIA, notifications, SSP draft updates, etc.).

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.
