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-incident-law AGENTS.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 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

AI Incident Law — agent instructions

Build pipeline

index.html is hand-edited (the SPA shell). No script writes it. Safe to edit directly.

Generated files in this repo:

  • data.js — produced by scripts/build-data.mjs from data/data.json. Do NOT hand-edit.
  • data/data.json generated_at field — derived at build time from newest record last_verified_date / last_checked_date. Do NOT hand-edit.
  • api/v1/of/ — Obligation-First binding artifacts produced by scripts/build-obligation-first.mjs.

Edit data/data.json records or index.html SPA shell directly. Then:

npm run build       # build:data + build:of + validate:data
npm run check       # the full gate; read the "check" script in package.json, it grows

Then stage the whole generated set. CI asserts generated artifacts are committed (git diff --exit-code), so a data change that lands without its output fails the build:

git add data/ data.js api/ proceeding/ allegation/ determination/ authority/ party/ tombstone/ tests/fixtures/

party/ and tests/fixtures/of-contract-fingerprint.json are both easy to miss and both break CI on their own. Add index.html only if the SPA shell was hand-edited. If a record's jurisdiction changed, delete the stale authority/<old-slug>.json and api/v1/of/records/<old-slug>.json before committing, or the generated set will not match the data.

When in doubt, grep scripts/ for the file path before editing.

Cross-portfolio context

AI Incident Law is part of the PAICE legal graph. Implements the Obligation-First proceeding strand. Schema canon is at https://obligationfirst.org/. Portfolio canon at https://paice.foundation/ (~/Git/paice-foundation/INTENT.md).

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.
