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

cancellations-pauses-winback 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 13d 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.

Cancellations, Pauses, and Winback

A subscription can end in several ways, and each one has a different effect on user access, entitlement records, and recovery options. Use this skill when you are wiring up any end of life or pause flow for a Google Play subscription: user cancellation, developer cancellation, system cancellation after payment failure, pause, resume, restore, resubscribe, deferral, or revocation.

Phase 1: Identify the Scenario

Before writing any code, identify which of the following you are handling. The later phases branch on this choice.

  • The user is canceling through Play (silent to your app, signaled by RTDN).
  • You are canceling from your backend on the user's behalf or for your own reasons.
  • Google canceled after exhausting grace period and account hold.
  • The user is pausing, resuming, or a pause is scheduled.
  • The user is restoring a cancellation before expiry, or resubscribing after expiry.
  • You are deferring billing as goodwill or compensation.
  • You are revoking immediately due to fraud or a terms violation.

Phase 2: Plan by Cancellation Type

Each cancellation type behaves differently with respect to access, refunds, RTDN signals, and recovery. Plan the entitlement logic using the matrix below before you touch the API.

Cancellation type matrix

Type API or Trigger Access After Refund Primary RTDN canceledStateContext.cancellationReason
User initiated Play Subscriptions Center Until expiryTime None (prorated not issued) SUBSCRIPTION_CANCELED USER_CANCELED
Developer, user requested purchases.subscriptionsv2.cancel with USER_REQUESTED_STOP_RENEWAL Until expiryTime None SUBSCRIPTION_CANCELED DEVELOPER_CANCELED
Developer, your reason purchases.subscriptionsv2.cancel with DEVELOPER_REQUESTED_STOP_PAYMENTS Until expiryTime None SUBSCRIPTION_CANCELED DEVELOPER_CANCELED
System, payment failure Automatic after grace + account hold None from the moment account hold expires None SUBSCRIPTION_CANCELED SYSTEM_CANCELED

Revoke purchases.subscriptionsv2.revoke Immediately terminated Prorated refund issued by Google SUBSCRIPTION_REVOKED n/a (terminated)

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.
