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

kb-management 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 12d 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.

KB Management

The knowledge base (kb/) is the project's durable memory. Every agent reads from it for context. This skill covers how to maintain it well.

Layers

Canon: established facts the story has committed to. Once a chapter is published/finalized, the facts it establishes are canon. Contradicting canon breaks reader trust.

Wiki: synthesized reference pages. How the magic system works, character relationships, faction politics. Living documents that evolve as the story develops.

Styles: voice reference files derived from prose samples. The writer and critic agents depend on these for voice consistency.

Vocab: canonical story terms, aliases, and exclusions. Project-wide terms live in kb/vocab.md; domain terms live beside the domain they govern, such as kb/world/vocab.md.

Issues: tracked writing problems that span multiple chapters (recurring tics, pacing patterns, continuity errors). See the story-memory skill.

Page Conventions

One Concept Per Document

Each doc covers one coherent topic: one character, one location, one system. When a doc covers two unrelated topics, split it. When two docs explain the same thing from different angles, merge or cross-reference.

Name files by what they describe (fire-magic.md, protagonist.md), not when they were written (session-3-notes.md).

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.
