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

age-gating-services 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/process.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Age-Gating Implementation for Online Services

Overview

Age-gating is the practice of restricting or adapting access to an online service based on the user's age. It serves as the enforcement mechanism that translates age verification results into access control decisions. Age-gating can take the form of a hard gate (complete denial of access below a specified age), a soft gate (modified experience with reduced features or enhanced protections for younger users), or an adaptive gate (progressively adjusting the service experience based on age brackets). Effective age-gating must balance child protection, user experience, accessibility, and compliance with GDPR Art. 8, COPPA, the UK Online Safety Act 2023, the EU Digital Services Act Art. 28, and the UK AADC Standard 3.

Types of Age Gates

Hard Gate — Complete Access Denial

Description: Users below a specified age are entirely prevented from accessing the service.

When to Use:

  • Age-restricted products and services regulated by law (gambling: 18+, alcohol sales: 18+/21+, adult content: 18+)
  • Services where the risk to children cannot be adequately mitigated through design measures
  • Where the business model is fundamentally incompatible with child safety (e.g., real-money trading, cryptocurrency exchanges)

Implementation Requirements:

  • Display a clear message explaining why access is denied: "This service is only for people aged 18 and older"
  • Do not collect or retain the personal data of users who are denied access (beyond what is needed for the gate)
  • Provide information about alternative age-appropriate services where possible
  • Do not use the denied user's data for any purpose including analytics

Regulatory Basis:

  • UK Gambling Act 2005: Age verification mandatory for remote gambling operators
  • UK Online Safety Act 2023 Section 11: Providers must prevent children from encountering primary priority harmful content
  • EU DSA Art. 28(1): Online platforms accessible to minors must implement age-appropriate measures

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.
