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

mock-interview 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 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.

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 — 77 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

mock-interview

Practice live. Hard rules: ../_shared/RULES.md. Report shape (canonical): reference/report-schema.md.

Inputs

  1. role (required); company optional but improves question fidelity.
  2. Profileprofile/master-profile.md.
  3. Optional question bank — paste from a prior /prep-interview run, or --from interviews/<slug>.prep.md.
  4. Optional company briefcompanies/<slug>.json.
  5. Flags:
    • --questions N — default 5; up to 10.
    • --difficulty easy | medium | hard — default medium.
    • --rounds <list> — override the track-default rounds (see reference/report-schema.md for the per-track loop maps).

Method

  1. Region pack — read for region-specific behavioral framing (formality differs US ↔ IN).

  2. Greet by name (from profile). One sentence. Confirm role + rounds + difficulty + length.

  3. The loop:

    • Ask one question at a time. Tag with its round.
    • Wait for the user's answer. Acknowledge in one sentence (no live grading).
    • Do not answer your own questions. Do not hint. (Ports the Go handlers.go:617 rule.)
    • If the user types /skip, log the question as unanswered (userAnswer: "").
    • Stop after the configured count or when the user types /done.
  4. End-of-session — generate the scored report per reference/report-schema.md:

    • overallScore — float 1.0–10.0, one decimal.
    • strengths — 3–5 bullets, profile-grounded, citing specific Q ids.
    • improvements — 3–5 bullets, actionable (what to do next time).
    • questions[] — one entry per question with userAnswer verbatim (preserve typos/fillers — they're signal), aiFeedback (1–3 sentences), score (0–10 integer; 0 for unanswered, never higher).
    • Optional next_steps[] — 0–3 things to drill next.
  5. Write transcript + report:

    • interviews/<company-or-role-slug>-<YYYY-MM-DD>.transcript.md
    • interviews/<company-or-role-slug>-<YYYY-MM-DD>.report.json

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.
