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

vercel-deploy 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 7d 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 — 267 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Vercel Deployment

Deploy and configure a project on Vercel. If target specifies a particular concern (domains, env vars, etc.), focus there. Otherwise, do the full setup.

Step 1: Install and Authenticate

pnpm add -g vercel
vercel login

If already installed, verify with vercel --version.

From the project root:

vercel link

Follow the prompts to connect to an existing Vercel project or create a new one. This creates a .vercel/ directory locally (already in .gitignore by default).

Step 3: Configure vercel.json

Create vercel.json in the project root only if you need non-default settings. Next.js projects usually need minimal config.

{
  "framework": "nextjs",
  "buildCommand": "pnpm build",
  "installCommand": "pnpm install",
  "headers": [
    {
      "source": "/(.*)",
      "headers": [
        { "key": "X-Content-Type-Options", "value": "nosniff" },
        { "key": "X-Frame-Options", "value": "DENY" },
        { "key": "Referrer-Policy", "value": "strict-origin-when-cross-origin" }
      ]
    }
  ],
  "redirects": [],
  "rewrites": []
}
Field When to set
framework Auto-detected for Next.js. Set explicitly if detection fails.
buildCommand Override if using a monorepo or custom build step
installCommand Override if not using npm (e.g., pnpm install)
headers Add security headers, CORS, caching
redirects Domain migrations, URL restructuring
rewrites Proxy API routes, SPA fallbacks
regions Pin serverless functions to specific regions (e.g., ["iad1"])

Step 4: Environment Variables

Set via CLI

# Add for all environments
vercel env add NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL

# Add for specific environments
vercel env add DATABASE_URL production
vercel env add DATABASE_URL preview
vercel env add DATABASE_URL development

Environment Types

Environment When used Notes
Production Main branch deploys Use production database, real API keys
Preview PR and branch deploys Use staging database, test API keys
Development vercel dev locally Mirrors .env.local

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.
