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

expansion-kickoff 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 11d 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

/expansion-kickoff

Starts an international expansion project for a new country — gathers intake, runs EOR vs. entity framing, drafts cross-functional questions, surfaces country-specific flags, and creates a persistent tracker.

Instructions

  1. Load ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-hk-law/employment-legal/CLAUDE.md → jurisdictional footprint, escalation table.
  2. Load the international-expansion reference skill and run the full workflow.
  3. If a tracker file already exists for this country (~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-hk-law/employment-legal/expansion-[slug].yaml), flag it: "An expansion tracker for [country] already exists. Use /employment-legal:expansion-update [country] to update it, or confirm you want to start over."
  4. Create ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-hk-law/employment-legal/expansion-[slug].yaml on completion.

Examples

/employment-legal:expansion-kickoff Germany
/employment-legal:expansion-kickoff
(skill will ask which country)

Detailed EOR vs. entity framework, cross-functional questions, briefing templates, and tracker schema live in the international-expansion reference skill — load it before doing substantive work.

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.
