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

guard 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 today.

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.

DocGuard Guard

Validate your project against its canonical documentation. Runs every enabled validator; docguard --help and the guard output report what ran.

Running DocGuard

Run docguard from PATH when it is installed. Otherwise run npx --yes [email protected], the release these instructions ship with, in its place. Every docguard … command below means one of the two.

User Input

$ARGUMENTS

You MUST consider the user input before proceeding (if not empty).

Execution

  1. Run DocGuard guard validation:
docguard guard --format json $ARGUMENTS
  1. Parse each validator's result and build a severity-ranked findings table. Status glyphs: ✅ pass, ⚠️ warning, ❌ fail, ➖ N/A (nothing to validate — NOT a pass; the dimension was not assessed).

  2. Triage by severity:

    • CRITICAL: Structure, Security, Test-Spec, Evidence contradiction/manifest failures → fix immediately
    • HIGH: Doc Sections, Drift-Comments, Changelog, Traceability, API-Surface → fix before commit
    • MEDIUM: Freshness, Docs-Coverage, Doc-Quality, Metrics → fix this sprint
    • LOW: TODO-Tracking, Schema-Sync, Spec-Kit, Metadata → fix when convenient
  3. For each failing check, provide an exact fix — specific file, section, and content.

  4. Re-run guard after fixes. Iterate until all checks pass (max 3 iterations).

Validators

Validator What It Checks
Structure Required CDD files exist
Doc Sections Canonical docs have required sections
Docs-Sync External doc references are valid
Drift-Comments // DRIFT: comments have DRIFT-LOG entries
Changelog CHANGELOG.md is maintained
Test-Spec TEST-SPEC.md matches actual test files
Environment Environment docs and .env.example exist
Security No hardcoded secrets, .gitignore configured
Architecture Layer boundaries and diagrams present
Freshness Docs updated after recent code changes
Traceability Canonical docs linked to source code
Docs-Diff Entity/route/field drift between code and docs
API-Surface API-REFERENCE.md endpoints match the real API surface (OpenAPI spec / routes)
Metadata-Sync Metadata headers are consistent
Docs-Coverage All config files documented
Doc-Quality Readability, IEEE 830 compliance
TODO-Tracking TODOs are tracked
Schema-Sync Schema documentation matches code
Spec-Kit Spec quality (FR-IDs, sections)
Evidence Exact declared statements match current local sources or saved compatibility reports
Metrics-Consistency Internal counts are accurate

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.
