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

dependency-auditor 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 7d 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.

Dependency Auditor

Instructions

When auditing dependencies:

  1. Run security audit
  2. Check for outdated packages
  3. Find unused dependencies
  4. Analyze bundle size impact
  5. Review and update

Security Audit

# NPM audit
npm audit

# Get JSON output for processing
npm audit --json

# Fix automatically (safe fixes only)
npm audit fix

# Force fix (may have breaking changes)
npm audit fix --force

# PNPM
pnpm audit

# Yarn
yarn audit

Check Outdated Packages

# NPM
npm outdated

# Interactive update
npx npm-check-updates -i

# Update all to latest
npx npm-check-updates -u
npm install

# Check specific package
npm view <package> versions

Find Unused Dependencies

# Using depcheck
npx depcheck

# With details
npx depcheck --detailed

# Ignore patterns
npx depcheck --ignores="@types/*,eslint-*"

Common False Positives

Depcheck may flag these as unused when they're actually needed:

  • @types/* packages (used by TypeScript)
  • ESLint/Prettier plugins (referenced in config)
  • PostCSS plugins (referenced in config)
  • Next.js plugins
  • Babel presets

Analyze Bundle Size

# For Next.js
npx @next/bundle-analyzer

# General purpose
npx source-map-explorer dist/**/*.js

# Check package size before installing
npx package-phobia <package-name>

# Compare alternatives
npx bundlephobia-cli compare lodash ramda

Dependency Review Checklist

Security

  • No critical/high vulnerabilities
  • Dependencies actively maintained
  • No known malicious packages
  • Lock file committed

Freshness

  • No major version behind (unless intentional)
  • Security patches applied
  • Deprecated packages replaced

Cleanliness

  • No unused dependencies
  • No duplicate packages (check lock file)
  • devDependencies vs dependencies correct

Update Strategies

Conservative (Recommended)

# Update patch versions only
npm update

# Update specific package
npm install package@latest
