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

setup 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

Check that Claude Code CLI is installed and authenticated.

Steps:

  1. Check if claude binary exists in PATH:

    which claude
    
  2. Check Claude version:

    claude --version
    
  3. Check that ANTHROPIC_API_KEY is set:

    if [ -n "$ANTHROPIC_API_KEY" ]; then echo "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY is set"; else echo "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY is not set"; fi
    

If any check fails, provide installation instructions:

Claude Code Installation:

Install via npm:

npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code

Or download from: https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/agents-and-tools/claude-code/overview

Authentication:

export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="your-api-key-here"

Get your API key from: https://console.anthropic.com/settings/keys

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.
