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

azure-monitor-audit 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 12d 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.

Azure Monitor Audit

Audit Azure activity with Monitor, Activity Logs, and Log Analytics for compliance, security, and operational visibility.

When to Use

  • Enabling centralized audit logging across Azure subscriptions
  • Meeting compliance requirements for SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS, or ISO 27001
  • Investigating security incidents or unauthorized activity in Azure
  • Setting up alerting on administrative and security events
  • Building compliance dashboards and automated evidence collection
