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

country-india 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 13d 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.

Country: India

Architectural code and regulatory reference for projects located in any Indian state or Union Territory. Activate this skill whenever the project location is in India, when an Indian city is referenced, when Indian rupee currency or area-units like "square feet built-up" / "carpet area" / "lakh" / "crore" appear, or when codes like NBC, ECBC, or IS series are mentioned.

  - Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) -- publishes NBC 2016 + IS codes
  - Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) -- urban policy
  - Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) -- ECBC 2017, ECBC-R 2018
  - Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC) -- EIA notifications
  - National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) -- guidelines
  - Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) -- height NOC near aerodromes

LEVEL 2 -- STATE FRAMEWORK (legally binding)
  - State Town & Country Planning Department -- planning laws
  - State Fire Services -- Fire NOC, periodic renewal
  - State Pollution Control Board -- Consent to Establish/Operate
  - State Electricity Regulatory Commission -- electrical sanction

LEVEL 3 -- LOCAL FRAMEWORK (legally binding, project-specific)
  - Municipal Corporation OR Development Authority -- Building Permit
    + MCGM (Greater Mumbai), MCD (Delhi), BBMP (Bangalore), GCC (Chennai),
      GHMC (Hyderabad), KMC (Kolkata), PMC (Pune), AMC (Ahmedabad),
      MCC (Chandigarh), etc.
    + MMRDA, DDA, BDA, CMDA, HMDA, KMDA -- jurisdictional Development Authorities
  - District Magistrate / Collector -- land use, NA conversion
  - Local Fire Services -- on-site NOC

LEVEL 4 -- PROJECT-SPECIFIC CLEARANCES
  - EC (Environmental Clearance) for >20,000 sqm built-up (EIA 2006 + amendments)
  - Aviation NOC if within 20-km of aerodrome reference point
  - Heritage NOC if within heritage precinct (ASI/SHA)
  - Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) clearance per CRZ 2019
  - Forest clearance if on forest land
  - Defence/Army NOC if within designated zones
  - RERA registration if >500 sqm or >8 apartments (RERA Act 2016)

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.
