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

cloud-security-guide 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 9d 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.

Cloud Security Guide

Workflow en 8 étapes

1. Auditer et durcir l'IAM

Critère de déclenchement : nouveau compte cloud, audit trimestriel, onboarding d'un service.

# AWS — lister les utilisateurs sans MFA
aws iam generate-credential-report
aws iam get-credential-report --query 'Content' --output text | base64 -d | grep ',false,'

# AWS — trouver les politiques permissives (Action: *)
aws iam list-policies --scope Local --query "Policies[*].Arn" --output text | \
  xargs -I{} aws iam get-policy-version --policy-arn {} --version-id v1 \
  --query "PolicyVersion.Document" 2>/dev/null | grep -B5 '"Action": "\*"'

# Azure — Access Review via CLI
az ad user list --query "[?accountEnabled==\`true\`].{UPN:userPrincipalName}" --output table

Règles d'or :

  • Pas de credentials longue durée sur les machines : utiliser des Instance Profiles / Managed Identities / Workload Identity.
  • Séparer les comptes par environnement (dev / staging / prod) avec AWS Organizations SCPs ou Azure Management Groups.
  • Imposer MFA via une SCP/Policy bloquant toutes les actions si MFA absent.
// AWS SCP — forcer MFA
{
  "Effect": "Deny",
  "NotAction": ["iam:CreateVirtualMFADevice","iam:EnableMFADevice","sts:GetSessionToken"],
  "Resource": "*",
  "Condition": {"BoolIfExists": {"aws:MultiFactorAuthPresent": "false"}}
}

2. Segmenter le réseau

# AWS — VPC avec sous-réseaux isolés (Terraform snippet)
resource "aws_vpc" "main" { cidr_block = "10.0.0.0/16" }
resource "aws_subnet" "public"   { cidr_block = "10.0.1.0/24" ... }
resource "aws_subnet" "private"  { cidr_block = "10.0.2.0/24" ... }
resource "aws_subnet" "data"     { cidr_block = "10.0.3.0/24" ... }

# Activer les VPC Flow Logs
aws ec2 create-flow-logs \
  --resource-type VPC --resource-ids vpc-xxx \
  --traffic-type ALL --log-destination-type cloud-watch-logs \
  --log-group-name /vpc/flowlogs

Décision rapide :

Ressource Exposition autorisée
Base de données Jamais publique — Private endpoint obligatoire
Application web Via ALB/WAF uniquement
API interne Via VPN ou Service Mesh
Bucket/Blob Jamais public sauf CDN explicite

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.
