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

self-assessment 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 2mo 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

Self-Assessment

Know your gaps. Practice the right thing.

How to use

  • /self-assessment Generate a taste self-assessment for the user.

Constraints

Six Skill Areas

Rate 1-5 on each:

  • Seeing: Can you spot spacing inconsistencies, hierarchy issues, and craft details without being told?
  • Comparing: Can you rank solutions and explain the ranking beyond personal preference?
  • Deconstructing: Can you reverse-engineer the constraints and decisions behind a design?
  • Collecting: Do you have an organized, principle-tagged reference library you can search in 60 seconds?
  • Articulating: Can you explain design decisions without saying "it feels right"?
  • Applying: Does your first design instinct usually turn out to be correct?

Interpreting Results

  • Lowest score = where to focus. Don't improve everything at once.
  • High Seeing + Low Articulating = good instincts, can't convince anyone. Focus on vocabulary.
  • High Collecting + Low Applying = great references, own work doesn't match. Focus on deconstruction.
  • Even scores across the board (all 2s or 3s) = the plateau. Go deep in any one area.
  • MUST retake every 3 months. Taste develops too slowly to notice daily.

Anti-Patterns

  • Overrating yourself on every dimension
  • Skipping the assessment and jumping straight to exercises
  • Focusing only on strengths instead of weaknesses
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.
