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

ocr-and-documents 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

OCR And Documents

Turn screenshots, scans, and messy files into structured working context.

Use when

  • Important information is trapped in images, PDFs, or mixed-format docs.
  • A docs or support workflow needs extracted text before analysis.

Workflow

  1. Identify the source type: screenshot, scanned PDF, exported doc, or mixed notes.
  2. Extract or retrieve text first before summarizing or making decisions.
  3. Preserve headings, tables, and named entities when they affect the outcome.
  4. Flag low-confidence or ambiguous OCR segments instead of inventing detail.
  5. Feed the cleaned result into the next workflow: docs update, support reply, launch brief, or review.

Deliverable

  • Clean extracted summary.
  • Important structured fields or action items.
  • Any ambiguous text that still needs human confirmation.
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.
