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

platform-tracing-configure 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 6d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 123 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Platform Tracing — Configure

Generate EventSettings metadata to enable or disable the Platform Tracing toggle, which controls whether TraceSpanEvent is published at a sample rate. This modifies a single field (enablePlatformTracing) within the existing EventSettings metadata type.

Scope

  • In scope: Generating Event.settings-meta.xml with the enablePlatformTracing field to enable or disable TraceSpanEvent publishing.
  • Out of scope: Agentforce agent tracing to Data Cloud (use platform-tracing-agentforce-configure). Other EventSettings fields (enableDeleteMonitoringData, enableLoginForensics, etc.) owned by other teams. Event Log Files. Change Data Capture.

Prerequisites

Before generating, inform the user of these requirements:

  1. PlatformTracing org permission must be active — this permission gates the feature. It is provisioned (not settable via metadata). Without it, the setting deploys but TraceSpanEvent is not published.
  2. API version 68.0+enablePlatformTracing on EventSettings was introduced in Spring '25. Orgs or tooling on older API versions will not recognize the field. Update sfdx-project.json sourceApiVersion to 68.0 or higher if on an older tooling version.

If the user reports the setting isn't working after deploy, the most likely cause is a missing prerequisite above.


Clarifying Questions

Before generating, confirm with the user if not already clear:

  • Enable or disable? (Which state do you want for Platform Tracing / TraceSpanEvent?)

No other clarification needed — this controls a single boolean field.


Required Inputs

Gather or infer before proceeding:

  • Desired state: true (enable) or false (disable)

Defaults unless specified:

  • If user says "enable" or "turn on": set to true
  • If user says "disable" or "turn off": set to false

If the user provides a clear request, generate immediately without unnecessary back-and-forth.


Workflow

  1. Warn about prerequisites — inform the user that this feature requires the PlatformTracing org permission and API version 68.0+.

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.
