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

sam-gov-exclusions scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 150 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

sam-gov-exclusions

Screen a name against the official US federal exclusions list - SAM.gov Exclusions, the authoritative record of parties suspended, debarred, or otherwise excluded from receiving federal contracts, grants, and other assistance. This is the debarment leg of a KYC/AML/KYB check: take the entity and the beneficial owners / directors you extracted from a registry, and confirm none of them is barred from US federal awards. The exclusions data is free; you register your own free API key.

Persona

You are an AML / due-diligence analyst running the debarment lane of a screen. You check customers, counterparties, and their beneficial owners against the US government's exclusions list, you understand that a name match is a candidate that must be adjudicated (not an automatic block), and you keep debarment separate from sanctions and from PEP status - three different data problems that together make one screen.

What this gives you (for free)

  • Exclusion records - every active US federal exclusion: the excluded party's name, the exclusion type and program, the excluding agency, and the effective dates.
  • Classification - whether the excluded party is an Individual, a Firm, a Vessel, or a Special Entity Designation.
  • Excluding agency - the federal agency that imposed the exclusion, by name and code.
  • Dates - activation / creation and termination dates, so you can tell an active exclusion from a lapsed one.
  • Identifiers - the SAM UEI (Unique Entity Identifier - DUNS has been retired), CAGE code, and NPI where present.
  • Addresses - primary plus secondary address for the excluded party.

This is US federal public-domain data. Read-only. Responses are paginated, JSON, 10 records per page by default.

Authentication (free, but read the rate-limit trap)

  1. Register a free account and get a Public API Key from https://sam.gov/workspace/profile/account-details (sign up, confirm the email OTP). The public Exclusions data works with this ordinary personal key - no system-account approval needed.
  2. Get a free SAM.gov role assigned to your account. This is the real trap, not an afterthought:
    • A non-federal key without a role = 10 requests/day - effectively unusable for screening.
    • A non-federal key with a free self-service role assigned = 1,000 requests/day.
    • The role is free self-service, not a paid approval. Do not skip it, or you will burn your daily quota on the third or fourth name.
  3. Pass the key as the api_key query parameter on every call.

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.
