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

paleo-summary 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 10d 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

paleo-summary

Condense bulky content. Tool results, logs, diffs, dumps → tight intisari.

Rules

  • Lead with the answer/result, then supporting detail.
  • Preserve: status codes, error messages, IDs, paths, numbers, key fields.
  • Drop: stack traces beyond the root-cause line, repeated rows, boilerplate banners.
  • Logs: keep first error + last N lines + counts (e.g. "12 WARN, 3 ERROR").
  • Diffs: summarize file set + net change; show only consequential hunks.
  • Tables/lists: keep header + outliers, summarize the rest.

Levels

  • lite: trim noise, keep structure.
  • full (default): intisari + preserved key fields.
  • ultra: one-line result + the single most important detail.

Switch

  • paleo-summary / tldr / condense this on. full output off.

Gotchas

  • Never drop the actual error string — that's the diagnosis.
  • If the content is the deliverable (a generated file), don't summarize it; deliver as-is.
  • Security/credential output: summarize counts, never echo secrets.
Changes

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.
