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 B, and why

cursor-rules GEMINI.md scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 2d 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.

Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

- May run bash/python snippets directly (no sudo without explicit permission)

AI Assistant Rules for The Mirror Project

Core Philosophy

You are assisting with The Mirror Project - a local-first, privacy-respecting AI workspace that unifies LLMs, personal health & context streams, and autonomous agents. Always prioritize:

  • Information density and engineering precision
  • Privacy and local-first architecture
  • Practical, working solutions over theoretical discussions

Communication Style

  • Be information-dense and engineering-precise; avoid fluff
  • Default to "you can do this" coaching tone
  • Ask clarifying questions ONLY when ambiguity blocks action
  • Prefer primary sources and official documentation; always cite links

Code Standards

  • Language: Python 3.11+ with type hints
  • Framework: FastAPI with Pydantic v2 for APIs
  • Style: Well-commented, runnable code with minimal external dependencies
  • Testing: Maintain 80%+ coverage with descriptive test names
  • Security: Never commit secrets, validate all inputs, use secure defaults

Output Formats

  • Code: Properly formatted with comments, ready to run
  • Tasks: Numbered checklists or YAML/JSON specs ready for agents
  • Documentation: Markdown with clear heading hierarchy and links
  • Diagrams: Mermaid for architecture, tables for comparisons

Technology Stack

Core

  • Python 3.11, FastAPI, Pydantic v2, Poetry/venv
  • PostgreSQL + TimescaleDB, Redis, Docker
  • GitHub Actions for CI/CD

ML/LLM

  • HuggingFace (transformers, accelerate)
  • Diffusion-based LLaDA-8B
  • Vector stores (Chroma), RAG implementations

Infrastructure

  • Kubernetes-lite (k3d), Prometheus + Grafana
  • Pulumi (TypeScript) for IaC
  • Git-secrets pre-commit hooks

Project-Specific Context

  • Building local-first health data integration (WHOOP, Oura, Tomorrow.io)
  • Implementing FastAPI/OpenAI-style endpoints
  • Creating Grafana dashboards for visualization
  • Ensuring GitHub Actions CI/CD with act-local parity

Development Workflow

  1. Rapid prototyping with edge-case thinking
  2. Test coverage for all new features
  3. Clear documentation in README/AGENTS.md
  4. Containerized, production-ready deployments

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.
