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

analyze-gold 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 132 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Analyze Gold — Combination Command

Pre-configured wrapper around pair-analyze for XAUUSD with gold-specific calibration. Pick this when the user says "analyze gold" or "gold setup" so defaults match how gold actually trades.

Invocation

/tradecraft:analyze-gold [TIMEFRAME] [MODE]

# Examples
/tradecraft:analyze-gold              # defaults: H1, standard
/tradecraft:analyze-gold H4 conservative
/tradecraft:analyze-gold M15 scalp
/tradecraft:analyze-gold D1 swing

Arguments are exposed via $ARGUMENTS. Symbol is locked to XAUUSD.

What This Wrapper Does

  1. Binds symbol = XAUUSD (also accepts broker variants: XAUUSDm, GOLD, XAU/USD — normalize before dispatch).
  2. Applies gold-specific overrides (see below).
  3. Delegates to the pair-analyze pipeline.
  4. Returns the same JSON output contract as pair-analyze, plus a gold_context block.

Gold-Specific Calibration

Aspect Override vs. generic pair-analyze
Pip / point 0.01 USD per unit — price quoted to 2 decimals
Typical spread 0.15 – 0.40 on ECN; 0.25 – 0.60 on standard
Active sessions London open → US close (08:00 – 21:00 UTC)
Dead zone Asian session outside the Tokyo/London overlap (~06:00 – 09:00 UTC)
Volatility reference H1 ATR(14) typically 3–12 pts; >20 = elevated
SL minimum Max(structure-based, 1.0 × H1 ATR, 2.5 pts) — gold wicks hunt tight stops
High-impact drivers FOMC, NFP, CPI, PPI, DXY moves, real yields, geopolitical risk
News gate buffer 30 min before / 60 min after red-folder USD events
Correlation to monitor DXY (inverse), US10Y real yield (inverse), SPX (weak positive in risk-on)

Mode Defaults Adjusted for Gold

Mode Per-trade risk Min R:R Notes
conservative 0.5% 3.0 H4/D1 only; avoid during NY lunch
standard 1.0% 2.0 H1/H4; skip the first 15 min after London open
aggressive 1.5% 1.5 H1 only; never during CPI/FOMC week
scalp 0.5% 1.5 M5/M15; London and NY overlap only
swing 1.0% 3.0 H4/D1; align with weekly bias

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.
