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

dpa-checklist-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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 218 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

DPA Checklist Review

Conduct a structured compliance review of a Data Processing Agreement, DPA-equivalent addendum, or Business Associate Agreement against the requirements of the applicable regulatory regime. The output is a checklist suitable for a compliance tracker — each required term has a row, an assessment, and a clause reference.

When this skill applies

Apply when the user provides a DPA, DPA addendum, or BAA and asks for compliance review against a specific regulatory regime. The skill works against four distinct regimes (see regulatory_regime input) and applies different requirements for each.

Do not apply this skill to:

  • Privacy policies. Those are public-facing notices, not contracts; different review skill needed.
  • Standalone privacy schedules or security exhibits inside larger agreements where the privacy/security terms have not been collected into a DPA structure. Tell the user the substantive privacy and security terms need to be pulled into a DPA-shaped structure before this skill is useful.
  • Contractual privacy clauses inside MSAs that have not been broken out as a DPA addendum. Recommend the user request a separate DPA addendum from the counterparty, which is now industry standard.
  • Cross-regime analysis (e.g., "is this GDPR-compliant and HIPAA-compliant?"). Run the skill twice with different regulatory_regime values and compare outputs.

Privilege and confidentiality

DPAs and BAAs frequently contain client-confidential information (data flows, security postures, vendor relationships, deal terms) and the resulting compliance review is plausibly attorney work product. Before running the skill, the user must confirm:

  • Privileged work product. The checklist produced by this skill is a draft work product intended to support legal advice. Treat the output as presumptively privileged where applicable, and do not distribute it outside the attorney-client circle without considering waiver consequences.
  • External-model exposure. If this skill is being executed in an environment that routes the document to a model or service outside the user's attorney-supervised workflow (e.g., a non-BAA-covered API, a non-enterprise consumer endpoint, a logged training surface), confirm with the user before proceeding. Run this skill only inside an attorney-supervised workflow where the routing and retention posture has been vetted.
  • Legal-use posture. Output is a draft for review by qualified privacy counsel — it is not a legal opinion, not a regulator-facing artifact, and not a substitute for a PIA, TIA, or other formal compliance assessment (see "What this skill does not do").

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.
