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

footage-fetch 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/gdrive_pull.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Footage Fetch — fast, verified Google Drive downloads

THE way to get footage off Google Drive onto this Mac. Crushes the browser and survives long unattended pulls. Built from the 2026-06-06 Speaker ingest session — see [[reference_rclone_drive_downloads_2026-06-05]].

🔑 Golden rules (do not skip)

  1. rclone, NEVER the browser. Browser = one slow stream + a server-side zip that fails on 100GB+. rclone = parallel multi-thread, resumable, verifiable. ~40–50 MB/s sustained on Wi-Fi; 100 GB ≈ ~45 min.
  2. EVERY separate download = its OWN project. One /folders/ link = ONE project (it's one shoot). EACH /file/d/ link = its OWN project. NEVER lump separate downloads into one project. Scaffold via new_project.sh <brand> <slug>~/Downloads/<brand>/<YYYY-MM-DD>_<slug>/00_SOURCE/ (default brand speaker). (Learned the hard way — don't dump single-file pulls into a folder's project.)
  3. Check disk FIRST. Get total size, compare to df -g free, flag BEFORE pulling. Never fill the boot drive. 400GB+ won't fit internal → route to an external SSD.
  4. Run DETACHED for anything big. The harness reaps run_in_background tasks ~every 20–25 min mid-download. Launch with nohup … & disown so they survive the session.
  5. Always MD5-verify after (rclone check … --one-way). rclone stamps finished files with the SOURCE mtime — a today mtime on a "done" file means it's a browser copy or an unfinished partial.

Setup (one-time, already done)

rclone v1.74+ (brew). Remote gdrive: = read-only Google OAuth (scope=drive.readonly), token in ~/.config/rclone/rclone.conf. Re-auth if it ever breaks: rclone config reconnect gdrive:.

  • Folder: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/<FOLDER_ID>
  • File: https://drive.google.com/file/d/<FILE_ID>/view

Before committing — reachability, size, disk

# reachable?  "[]" (empty array, exit 0) = rclone can fetch it.  An error = not shared to this account.
rclone lsjson gdrive: --drive-root-folder-id=<ID>
rclone size  gdrive: --drive-root-folder-id=<FOLDER_ID>            # folder size
df -g ~/Downloads | awk 'NR==2{print $4" GiB free"}'              # free space

Single-file size: the folder-by-ID trick returns [] for files, so use the Google Drive MCP get_file_metadata (if that account can see it), otherwise read the total off the first --stats line once the download starts.

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.
