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

authentication-flow 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

Authentication Flows

Sign Up

  • Minimum fields: Email and password (or just email for magic link)
  • Social sign-in options above the form (Google, GitHub, Apple)
  • Password requirements shown proactively, not after failed attempt
  • Email verification via link, not code (less friction)

Log In

  • Email + password as default
  • "Remember me" checkbox
  • "Forgot password?" link visible near password field
  • Show/hide password toggle
  • Rate limit failed attempts (show "try again in X seconds")

Password Reset

  1. Enter email → 2. Check email → 3. Set new password → 4. Confirmed
  • Don't confirm whether the email exists (security)
  • Reset links expire (1 hour typical)
  • Invalidate old passwords on reset

Multi-Factor Authentication

  • SMS codes are the minimum (but weakest)
  • Authenticator apps are better (TOTP)
  • Passkeys/WebAuthn are best (no codes needed)
  • Recovery codes: show once, make user save them
  • Don't force MFA setup during onboarding (ask after first valuable action)

Single Sign-On

  • Prominent SSO buttons with correct brand colors and logos
  • "Continue with Google" not "Sign in with Google" (works for both login and signup)
  • Handle account linking (same email, different auth method)

Session Management

  • Show active sessions in settings
  • Allow remote logout
  • Auto-logout after inactivity (configurable for sensitive apps)
  • Extend session silently on activity (no popup interruptions)

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.
