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

tcx-brain 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 4d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 149 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

TCX Brain

Manage the complete Investment Brain lifecycle through one user entrypoint. A Brain shapes Head Manager's inquiry and interpretation; it is not a Strategy, role roster, workflow, memory store, policy package, or execution extension.

$tcx-brain manages Brains. It never selects one for analysis. A native analysis still requires one exact active $investment-brain-* id, either as a plain invocation or a Markdown link whose label and target match the projected workspace skill. Repeated references to the same id are deduplicated; distinct multiple ids fail closed.

Read bundle-contract.md before creating, revising, or deleting a user-owned source bundle.

Action Model

Keep the two managed layers distinct:

  • Source actions create, inspect, revise, validate, or explicitly delete a user-owned workspace-local bundle below investment-brains/.
  • Plugin actions list, inspect, install, update, activate, deactivate, roll back, or remove registry-managed immutable versions through the canonical manage_investment_brain MCP service.

remove is the managed delete operation: it removes the Head Manager projection and marks the plugin removed while retaining immutable versions for run provenance. It does not delete a user-owned source directory. A source deletion is a separate, explicitly named action.

Admission

Natural-language requests may create or revise a user-owned source below investment-brains/, then run read-only validation. list, inspect, and validate require no lifecycle proof. Use the normal trading-research profile for both source and lifecycle work.

Require $tcx-brain on the first meaningful line of a fresh root turn only for managed install, update, activate, deactivate, rollback, or remove. Do not combine it with $tcx-build, $tcx-wiki, $tcx-strategy, or an order marker. The marker grants only the matching current-turn lifecycle service call. Plan mode and subagents cannot perform managed lifecycle mutations.

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
