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

audit-code-review 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 290 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Code Review Skill

Degree of freedom: MIXED — Phases 1–2 judgment [HIGH freedom]; mandatory pre-review git/docs [LOW freedom — run exactly].

Review this PR or named diff. Repo-wide anti-patterns → audit-code-quality. Bulk transform semantics → audit-codemod-safety.

How to reason

  1. Observe — quote the hunk and the surrounding file (not the line alone)
  2. Interpret — what breaks, leaks, or duplicates if this merges?
  3. Classify — blocking / suggestion / nit / praise
  4. Severity — security, data-loss, or break-existing = blocking

Worked example

Observe: new GET /api/invoices/:id returns Invoice.findById(id) with no userId predicate (app/api/invoices/[id]/route.ts in this diff). Interpret: any authenticated caller reads another user's invoice. Classify: blocking (IDOR). Severity: Critical — must fix before merge. Finding: [id]/route.ts | add ownership check | blocking

Pre-review checks [LOW freedom — run exactly]

Before reviewing code:

1. Read Relevant Documentation

README.md (project conventions)
src/[domain]/@_[domain]-README.md (domain-specific patterns)
CONTRIBUTING.md (code standards)

2. Understand the Full Change

If reviewing a PR or commit:

git log --oneline -10 # recent context
git diff <base>..HEAD --stat # files changed
git diff <base>..HEAD # full diff

If reviewing a specific file, read the FULL file for context — not just the changed lines.

3. Check for Duplicate Implementations

Use Grep and SemanticSearch to verify:

  • Does this code duplicate existing functionality?
  • Is there an existing component/service that should have been extended?
  • Does this follow established patterns in the codebase?

4. Check Production Impact (Sentry)

If the change touches error-prone code, check if related Sentry issues exist:

sentry:search_issues
{
 "organizationSlug": "<ORG_SLUG>",
 "query": "issues related to <component or function being changed>",
 "projectSlugOrId": "<PROJECT_SLUG>",
 "regionUrl": "<REGION_URL>",
 "limit": 10
}

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.
