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

alphagbm-iv-rank 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 12d 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.

What This Skill Does

Calculates IV Rank and IV Percentile for any ticker, placing current implied volatility in historical context. Answers the key question: "Is IV high or low right now, and what should I do about it?"

Key Metrics

Metric Formula What It Means
IV Rank (Current IV - 52w Low) / (52w High - 52w Low) x 100 Where IV sits in its annual range. 0 = at the low, 100 = at the high
IV Percentile % of days in past year where IV was lower than today What % of the time IV was cheaper than now. 80 = IV was lower 80% of the time
Current IV 30-day ATM implied volatility The market's current expectation of annualized movement
IV 52w High Highest 30-day IV in past 252 trading days Peak IV -- usually during selloffs or events
IV 52w Low Lowest 30-day IV in past 252 trading days Trough IV -- usually during calm, grinding markets
HV/IV Ratio Historical Volatility / Implied Volatility >1 means realized vol exceeds implied (IV may be cheap)

IV Zones and Trading Signals

IV Rank Zone What It Means Suggested Action
80-100 Very High IV is near its annual peak -- options are expensive Sell premium: short strangles, iron condors, credit spreads
60-80 High IV is elevated -- above-average option prices Lean toward selling, but selective; good for covered calls
40-60 Moderate IV is in the middle -- neither cheap nor expensive Strategy-neutral; use directional view to decide
20-40 Low IV is depressed -- options are cheap Lean toward buying; good for debit spreads, long straddles
0-20 Very Low IV is near its annual trough -- options are very cheap Buy premium: long straddles, debit spreads, calendars (sell back month)

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.
