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

grill-change 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 2mo 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.

Grill Change

Purpose

Clarify a stakeholder request before any spec, issue plan, or implementation work starts. The output is an agreement record for a follow-up synthesis workflow; it is not an implementation plan.

Operating Rules

  1. Ask one focused question, then wait for the user's answer.
  2. Include a recommended answer with the question and explain why that answer is safest for the project.
  3. Inspect relevant local specs, ADRs, docs, fixtures, and code before asking questions that local context can answer.
  4. Challenge vague terms, overloaded words, and claims that conflict with repository evidence.
  5. Prefer concrete examples, edge cases, and tradeoff choices over broad brainstorming.
  6. Keep implementation details provisional until the product intent and non-goals are settled.
  7. Capture durable terms and hard-to-reverse decisions in the agreement record when they crystallize.
  8. Do not create issue lists, edit files, or start implementation during the grill.

Question Format

Use this shape for each question:

Question: <one decision or missing fact> Recommended answer: <the default direction you would choose> Why: <short reason based on product intent, safety, contracts, or repo evidence>

Design-it-Twice

For a hard-to-reverse choice, present it as a Design-it-Twice question: sketch two genuinely different paths before recommending one.

Path A: <approach> - interface: <the shape callers see>; risks: <what could go wrong>. Path B: <a genuinely different approach> - interface: <the shape callers see>; risks: <what could go wrong>. Recommendation: <the path you would choose and why>.

Do not offer two variations of the same path. Reserve this form for choices that are expensive to change later; a routine choice needs one recommended answer, not two paths.

ADR Candidates

Capture a decision as an ADR candidate when it is hard to reverse, surprising without context, or carries real trade-offs. Record the decision, the alternatives considered, and the reason as an agreement-record note only. Do not write an ADR file during the grill; synthesis persists it after approval.

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.
