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

character-pressure-lab 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 8d 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

Character Pressure Lab

人物不是设定、职业、性格标签或创伤说明。人物是在压力下暴露出来的一套欲望、恐惧、谎言和选择。


1. 人物四件套

每个核心人物必须有:

Want:他现在具体想要什么。
Need:他不愿承认但真正需要面对什么。
Lie:他用来维持旧生活的错误信念。
Cost:如果继续追求 want,他会失去什么。

短篇不需要完整传记,但必须有当下压力。


2. 让人物可信的方法

给人物一个不体面的欲望,而不是正确愿望。
给人物一个能理解但不能完全原谅的选择。
让人物说谎时有理由,说真话时付代价。
让人物在结尾做的选择从前文性格里长出来,而不是作者强行安排。

3. 关系压力

强关系不是“他们很相爱/仇恨/亏欠”,而是:

A 想从 B 身上得到某物。
B 知道或误解这个欲望。
B 也需要 A 付出某种代价。
两人都不愿把真正的筹码说出口。

对话的潜台词来自筹码不公开。


4. 人物空心警报

人物只在解释设定时出现
人物的选择总是道德正确
人物没有具体生活习惯
人物说的话可以换给任何角色
人物哭、沉默、崩溃,但没有做出改变局势的动作

出现这些信号时,重写人物动机和关键场景。


5. 返修问题

主角在每一场想赢什么?
这一场如果失败,他会损失什么?
他说出口的话和真正想要的东西差在哪里?
他的最后选择是否既合理又让人疼?

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.
