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

hedgefundmonitor-hardened scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.

OFR Hedge Fund Monitor API

Free, open REST API from the U.S. Office of Financial Research (OFR) providing aggregated hedge fund time series data. No API key or registration required.

Base URL: https://data.financialresearch.gov/hf/v1

Quick Start

import requests
import pandas as pd

BASE = "https://data.financialresearch.gov/hf/v1"

# List all available datasets
resp = requests.get(f"{BASE}/series/dataset")
datasets = resp.json()
# Returns: {"ficc": {...}, "fpf": {...}, "scoos": {...}, "tff": {...}}

# Search for series by keyword
resp = requests.get(f"{BASE}/metadata/search", params={"query": "*leverage*"})
results = resp.json()
# Each result: {mnemonic, dataset, field, value, type}

# Fetch a single time series
resp = requests.get(f"{BASE}/series/timeseries", params={
    "mnemonic": "FPF-ALLQHF_LEVERAGERATIO_GAVWMEAN",
    "start_date": "2015-01-01"
})
series = resp.json()  # [[date, value], ...]
df = pd.DataFrame(series, columns=["date", "value"])
df["date"] = pd.to_datetime(df["date"])

Authentication

None required. The API is fully open and free.

Datasets

Key Dataset Update Frequency
fpf SEC Form PF — aggregated stats from qualifying hedge fund filings Quarterly
tff CFTC Traders in Financial Futures — futures market positioning Monthly
scoos FRB Senior Credit Officer Opinion Survey on Dealer Financing Terms Quarterly
ficc FICC Sponsored Repo Service Volumes Monthly

Data Categories

The HFM organizes data into six categories (each downloadable as CSV):

  • size — Hedge fund industry size (AUM, count of funds, net/gross assets)
  • leverage — Leverage ratios, borrowing, gross notional exposure
  • counterparties — Counterparty concentration, prime broker lending
  • liquidity — Financing maturity, investor redemption terms, portfolio liquidity
  • complexity — Open positions, strategy distribution, asset class exposure
  • risk_management — Stress test results (CDS, equity, rates, FX scenarios)

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.
