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

humanize 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 10d 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.

humanize · 人間

人間 · にんげん — "human being". Makes AI-generated text sound like a real person wrote it.

Based on research from: Grammarly, MIT Technology Review, GPTZero, QuillBot, Reddit (r/auscorp, r/cybersecurity), Hacker News, Stack Overflow, JustDone, print-css.rocks, BrowserStack, pdf4.dev benchmarks, and professional writing guides (2024–2026).


Core metrics AI detectors measure

Metric What it means Human text AI text
Perplexity How predictable each word is High — uses unexpected words Low — always picks the most probable word
Burstiness Variance in sentence length High — mixes short/long sentences Low — uniform sentence length
Word frequency Rate of common vs rare words Balanced — uses uncommon terms Skewed — overuses "the", "it", "is"
Repetition Recurring patterns Low — natural variation High — same structures repeat

The 16 AI tells (how to spot them)

1. Overused buzzwords (Grammarly 2026, Reddit)

AI word Human alternative
delve into analyze, explore, dig into
pivotal key, decisive, critical
underscore highlight, point out, stress
multifaceted complex, with several aspects
landscape ecosystem, context, situation
paradigm model, approach, framework
robust solid, reliable, resilient
leverage use, harness, take advantage of
seamless smooth, frictionless, natural
transformative disruptive, profound, radical

2. Mechanical connectors (GPTZero research)

  • "Moreover", "Furthermore", "Nevertheless", "Consequently" → use "Also", "But", "So" or nothing
  • "However" every 3 paragraphs → cut half, let it flow
  • "Nevertheless", "Therefore", "Consequently" → replace with "So", "Then", "That means"

3. Perfect symmetrical structure (MIT Tech Review)

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.
