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

"econ-macro-indicators" 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.

Macroeconomic Indicators

Overview

Macroeconomic indicators measure aggregate economic performance. They divide into leading (predict future), coincident (reflect current), and lagging (confirm past) indicators. Understanding these helps contextualize business decisions within the broader economic environment.

Framework

IRON LAW: Leading, Coincident, or Lagging — Know Which Type

GDP growth is LAGGING — by the time it's published, the economy has already
changed. Stock markets and PMI are LEADING — they predict future direction.
Unemployment is LAGGING — it rises after a recession starts.

Using a lagging indicator to predict the future is looking in the rearview mirror.
Match the indicator type to your analysis purpose.

Key Indicators

GDP (Gross Domestic Product)

  • Type: Lagging
  • Measures: Total economic output
  • Key signals: 2 consecutive quarters of negative growth = technical recession
  • Taiwan: Published quarterly by DGBAS

Inflation (CPI/PPI)

  • Type: Coincident
  • CPI = consumer prices, PPI = producer prices (leading indicator for CPI)
  • Target: Most central banks target ~2%
  • Taiwan: CPI published monthly by DGBAS

Unemployment Rate

  • Type: Lagging
  • Natural rate varies by country (~3.5-4% for Taiwan)
  • Watch U-3 (official) vs broader measures that include underemployment

Interest Rates

  • Central bank policy rate (台灣央行重貼現率)
  • Raising rates → slows economy, fights inflation, strengthens currency
  • Lowering rates → stimulates economy, risks inflation, weakens currency

Exchange Rate

  • TWD/USD, TWD/JPY, TWD/CNY for Taiwan-centric analysis
  • Depreciation → exports cheaper but imports more expensive
  • Watch real effective exchange rate (REER) for trade competitiveness

PMI (Purchasing Managers' Index)

  • Type: Leading
  • Above 50 = expansion, below 50 = contraction
  • Published monthly, available before GDP data

Indicator Relationships

Central bank raises rates
  → Borrowing costs rise
    → Consumer spending slows + Business investment slows
      → GDP growth slows
        → Unemployment rises (with lag)
          → Inflation falls (the goal)

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.
