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

log-decision 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.

What it actually says

Log Decision

Append an architectural decision to the persistent decision log.

Instructions

  1. Summarize the decision made in the current conversation
  2. Include: context, alternatives considered, rationale, and outcome
  3. Append to ~/.claude/decisions.log in this format:
## [DATE] - [SHORT TITLE]
**Context:** [Why this decision was needed]
**Decision:** [What was decided]
**Alternatives:** [What else was considered]
**Rationale:** [Why this choice]

If the user provided arguments, use them as the decision topic: $ARGUMENTS

If no arguments, review the current conversation and identify the most significant architectural or technical decision made.

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.
