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

ai-automation-lab CLAUDE.md 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 8d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 70 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Approach

  • Read files before writing. Don't re-read unchanged files.
  • Thorough in reasoning, concise in output.
  • No preamble, closing fluff, or sycophancy.
  • No emojis, em-dashes, or smart quotes in files or commits.
  • Verify SHAs, versions, flags, endpoints and API shapes by reading code or docs before asserting.
  • Targeted edits over rewrites.
  • Comments say why, not what. Every non-obvious config line carries its reason.

What this is

An incident triage agent for the K3s homelab described in the sibling repo devops-homelab-k3s-hybrid-cloud. Alertmanager fires, n8n dedupes and calls this service, the agent investigates with read-only cluster tools, and the result is persisted and later scored against the human-confirmed root cause. The measured accuracy is the point of the project, not the agent.

Stack

Python 3.12 + uv | FastAPI | Pydantic v2 | SQLAlchemy 2 + PostgreSQL | typer | structlog MCP tool layer | n8n as a GitOps workload | ArgoCD app-of-apps | Prometheus + Loki + Grafana

Changes

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.
