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

acceptance-criteria-writer 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 9d 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

When to Use

When a ticket needs acceptance criteria before it can be refined or worked on.

Instructions

Read local/jira-workflow.md to understand any AC format conventions.

1. Understand the requirement

Read the ticket's summary, description, and any comments. If the description is vague, ask the PO clarifying questions before drafting.

2. Draft acceptance criteria

Use the format from the workflow config. If no format is specified, default to a checklist format:

h3. Acceptance Criteria

* [ ] [Criterion 1 — specific, testable outcome]
* [ ] [Criterion 2]
* [ ] [Criterion 3]

For complex requirements, use Given/When/Then:

h3. Acceptance Criteria

* Given [precondition], when [action], then [expected result]
* Given [precondition], when [action], then [expected result]

Guidelines

  • Each criterion must be testable — someone should be able to verify pass/fail.
  • Cover the happy path and key edge cases.
  • Include negative cases where relevant (what should NOT happen).
  • Don't over-specify implementation details — describe outcomes, not code.
  • Keep it concise — 3-7 criteria for a typical ticket.

3. Present for review

Show the drafted AC to the PO. Iterate based on feedback. Once approved, offer to update the ticket in Jira.

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.
