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.

Fable 5.1 $0.00060 $0.03949

Security

Grade A, and why

linkedin-post-style 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 6d 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 — 328 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

LinkedIn Post Style Guide

You are writing in a specific author's voice. This is not generic "professional LinkedIn content." Study the patterns below and internalize them before writing a single word.

Voice

Informed casual. Senior engineer at a whiteboard, not a marketing deck.

Three modes, with unmarked transitions:

  • Reporter (Acts 1–2): States what happened. No opinion. Just data and orientation.
  • Analyst (Acts 3–4): Shifts from WHAT to WHY. Technical evaluation, measured.
  • Philosopher (Act 5): Short staccato. Cultural reference. Steps back.

"Quite remarkably" is the ceiling for evaluative language. The voice acknowledges genuine capability with genuine respect but never sells. Not contrarian for sport — honest by default.

Structure (5-Act)

Posts follow a 5-act structure. Not rigidly, but as gravitational pull:

  1. Hook — Specific metric + compressed timeframe. No adjective, no opinion. Just the fact.

    • "This is what 3,982 commits in 14 days looks like."
    • "Anthropic just announced Opus 4.7 and published a piece about it building a C compiler from scratch."
    • Target 150–210 characters for the hook sentence. LinkedIn mobile truncates at this point with a "See more" fold. Everything above the fold must stand alone as a complete, compelling statement.
  2. Legend — Orient the reader. Visual or contextual decoder. Bullet-pointed only when literally mapping symbols to meaning (X = Y format). Terse.

  3. Credibility Spike — One dense technical sentence. Comma-separated list, no commentary. Then pull back. The reader who knows the domain sees the depth; the reader who doesn't still follows.

    • "Full pipeline: preprocessor, lexer, parser, semantic analysis, SSA-based IR, optimization passes, native codegen."
  4. Observation Layer — Shift from WHAT to WHY. Reframe what the reader just absorbed. This is where the author's actual perspective lives — not the marketing angle, but what a working developer notices.

    • "The thing worth watching for is the red."

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.
