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

ai-policy-lifecycle 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.

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.

Skill: AI Policy Lifecycle

Load trigger: "load ai-policy-lifecycle skill" > DORA: AI Capability 1 (Clear and communicated AI stance) Token cost: Low

Purpose

ai-stance creates AI_STANCE.md. This skill keeps it alive.

A static AI policy document becomes a liability within one tool adoption cycle. The DORA AI Capabilities Model v2025.1 explicitly warns against treating AI policy as a one-time artifact. This skill defines the quarterly review cadence, the process for updating the three buckets when circumstances change, and the socialization pattern that ensures every contributor (human and agent) encounters the updated policy.

Review Triggers

Trigger Action Priority
Quarterly calendar (every 90 days) Full review — run all five steps Medium
New AI tool adopted Update Permitted tools table + re-assess Prohibited/Guardrails High
Security incident involving AI tool Immediate review of relevant bucket Critical
New contributor onboarded Verify they've read AI_STANCE.md Low
DORA AI Capabilities research updated Check if new capability changes the stance framing Low
GitHub issue labeled ai-policy filed Triage and incorporate if valid Medium

Five-Step Review Process

Step 1 — Freshness check (5 min)

# Check last review date
grep "Last reviewed:" AI_STANCE.md
# Check days elapsed
python3 -c "
from datetime import datetime
last = datetime.strptime('YYYY-MM-DD', '%Y-%m-%d')
print(f'{(datetime.utcnow() - last).days} days since last review')
"
# Check for open ai-policy issues

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.
