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

status 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 11d 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 it actually says

Voice Status

Check the voice engine health and report status.

Instructions

  1. Call voice_status to get engine health information

  2. Report:

    • Engine status — healthy / degraded / unhealthy
    • Backend — which TTS backend is active (mock, http, python)
    • Voice count — how many voices are available
    • Preset count — how many presets are configured
    • Ambient system — enabled or disabled
    • Guardrails — rate limits, concurrency, timeout settings
    • Any errors or warnings
  3. If the engine is unhealthy, suggest:

    • Check that the TTS backend is running
    • Verify environment variables are set correctly
    • Check VOICE_SOUNDBOARD_BACKEND setting
    • For HTTP backend: verify VOICE_SOUNDBOARD_HTTP_URL is reachable

Tips

  • The mock backend always works — it returns silence but validates the full pipeline
  • For real audio, configure the HTTP or Python backend
  • voice_status is lightweight and not rate-limited — safe to call frequently

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.
