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

interview-prep 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 5d 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.

Inputs

  • Job description (provided by user)
  • knowledge/profile.md — candidate context
  • knowledge/stories/ — STAR story bank
  • knowledge/frameworks/writing-framework.md — for structuring verbal answers
  • knowledge/values/personal.md — for culture fit and motivation questions
  • If available: output/[company]/company-brief.md — use company intel to tailor
  • interview-type (if specified): recruiter-screen / technical / hiring-manager / final
  • ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/.claude/resources/ — detect the company or career path and load the matching framework. Search companies/ first (e.g. amazon.md, google.md), then paths/ (e.g. consulting.md, pe.md, marketplace.md), then fall back to general.md.

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.
