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

001-emoji-communication 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 10d 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

Emoji Communication Guidelines

Context

  • When responding to user queries in conversations
  • When emphasizing important points or status updates
  • When making technical communication more engaging and human-friendly

Requirements

  • Use emojis purposefully to enhance meaning, but feel free to be creative and fun
  • Place emojis at the end of statements or sections
  • Maintain professional tone while surprising users with clever choices
  • Limit emoji usage to 1-2 per major section

Examples

Critical Rules

  • Never use more than one emoji per statement
  • Choose emojis that are both fun and contextually appropriate
  • Place emojis at the end of statements, not at the beginning or middle
  • Skip emoji usage when discussing serious issues or errors
  • Don't be afraid to tell a mini-story with your emoji choice

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.
