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

devexpress-office-file-api-barcode 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.

DevExpress Barcode Generation API

The Barcode Generation API is a non-visual .NET library for generating barcode images programmatically. It supports over 30 barcode symbologies — 1D and 2D — and can export barcode images to PNG, BMP, JPEG, TIFF, GIF, and PDF formats. The primary namespace is DevExpress.Docs.Barcode; a legacy namespace DevExpress.BarCodes is also available but is not recommended for new development.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when you need to:

  • Generate QR Code images from URLs, text, or binary data
  • Generate Data Matrix barcodes for product labeling or manufacturing
  • Generate PDF417 barcodes for transport, ID cards, and inventory
  • Generate Aztec Code barcodes for ticketing and logistics
  • Generate EAN-13, EAN-8, UPC-A, or UPC-E barcodes for retail
  • Generate GS1 QR Code or GS1 Data Matrix for GS1-compliant workflows
  • Generate EPC QR Codes for SEPA credit transfers
  • Generate Code 128, Code 39, or Code 93 linear barcodes
  • Export barcode images to PNG, BMP, JPEG, TIFF, GIF, or PDF
  • Customize barcode appearance (colors, module size, DPI, quiet zone, border)
  • Display or embed barcodes in ASP.NET, Blazor, WinForms, WPF, or MAUI apps

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.
