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

vercel 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 1mo 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.

Vercel Deployment Guide

Deployment Protection and Agent Access

Vercel deployments may have Deployment Protection enabled, which requires authentication to access preview deployments. This can block automated testing and agent access to preview URLs.

Identifying Protected Deployments

If you encounter a login page or authentication requirement when accessing a Vercel preview URL, the deployment has protection enabled. Signs include:

  • Redirect to vercel.com/login or SSO login page
  • 401/403 errors when accessing the deployment
  • Preview URLs that require Vercel team membership

Enabling Agent Access with Protection Bypass

To allow agents and automated systems to access protected deployments, users need to set up Protection Bypass for Automation:

  1. Navigate to Project Settings

    • Go to the Vercel Dashboard
    • Select the project
    • Click on Settings → Deployment Protection
  2. Generate a Protection Bypass Secret

    • Under "Protection Bypass for Automation", click Generate Secret
    • Copy the generated secret securely
  3. Using the Bypass Secret

    The secret can be used in two ways:

    As a Header:

    curl -H "x-vercel-protection-bypass: <secret>" https://your-preview-url.vercel.app
    

    PowerShell equivalent:

    Invoke-WebRequest -Headers @{ "x-vercel-protection-bypass" = "<secret>" } -Uri https://your-preview-url.vercel.app
    

    As a Query Parameter:

    https://your-preview-url.vercel.app?x-vercel-protection-bypass=<secret>
    
  4. For Browser-Based Testing

    • Append ?x-vercel-protection-bypass=<secret> to the preview URL
    • The secret will be stored in a cookie for subsequent requests

Alternative: Disable Protection for Previews

If protection bypass is not suitable, users can disable protection for preview deployments:

  1. Go to Settings → Deployment Protection
  2. Set "Vercel Authentication" to Only Production Deployments or Disabled

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.
