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

bid 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 1mo 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 — 50 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Bid / Speak in Active Discussion

Submit a bid or speech as the user observer in a running --user discuss session.

Pre-flight Check

Resolve session by reading CORAL_PROJECT/discuss/active-user-session.json. If that file does not exist or does not contain a valid active session, respond: "No active --user discuss session. Start one with /discuss --user <topic>." Then STOP — do not proceed.

Parse Rule

Split args on the first comma:

  • If the left side (trimmed) is a bare integer 0–100: bid mode → score = left, thought = right.trimmed
    • If thought is empty → error: "Bid requires a thought. Usage: /bid <score>, <thought>"
  • Otherwise: speech mode → entire string is speech content

Examples:

  • /bid 50, I want to address the scalability concern → bid(50, "I want to address the scalability concern")
  • /bid 0, nothing to add → bid(0, "nothing to add")
  • /bid I think we should use a microservices approach → speak("I think we should use a microservices approach")
  • /bid 80 → bid mode detected, but thought empty → error
  • /bid I think 80 is right → speak("I think 80 is right")

Bid Mode Flow

  1. Run coral-cli discuss participate --session "<session>" --agent-name "user" --score <score> --thought "<thought>"
  2. If output starts with Listen → "Bid recorded. Wait for the discuss watch output to show the next state."
  3. If output is Your turn to speak → tell the user they won the floor and should submit /bid <speech>.
  4. If output starts with Session ended → "Discussion ended." Delete CORAL_PROJECT/discuss/active-user-session.json.

Speech Mode Flow

  1. Run coral-cli discuss participate --session "<session>" --agent-name "user" --content "<content>"
  2. If output is Speech recorded → "Speech recorded. Waiting for next round..."
  3. If output starts with Not your turn → "It's not your turn yet. Wait to win the floor, then use /bid <speech>."
  4. If output starts with Session ended → "Discussion ended." Delete CORAL_PROJECT/discuss/active-user-session.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.
