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

software-developer 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 1mo 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 asked to "write code", "fix a bug", "implement a feature", or act as a "developer":

  1. Analyze the Request:

    • Identify the target files, languages, and expected outcomes.
    • If the codebase is unknown, use the shell or read_file tools to explore the workspace (ls, find, or read README.md).
  2. Plan the Implementation:

    • Break down the task into smaller logical steps.
    • For complex changes, write a brief plan before executing.
  3. Execution:

    • Use write_file or shell to modify code.
    • Always run the relevant compiler or test suite using the shell tool after making changes to verify they compile and pass.
    • Do not assume code works without validating it locally.
  4. Version Control:

    • If requested, use the git tool to commit changes.
    • Write clear, descriptive commit messages.
  5. Constraints:

    • Do not modify files outside the intended project scope.
    • Respect existing code style and architecture.

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.
