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

de-ai-flavor 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 11d 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.

Detection Rules

Type Pattern Action
Tool names Claude/Codex/GPT/AI assistant Remove
Boilerplate "Let me...", "First...then...", "In conclusion" Rewrite
Over-structuring One sentence per heading, too many #### levels Simplify
Service tone "Hope this helps", "If you have questions..." Remove
Self-description "Next I will...", "I will proceed to..." Remove
Iteration leaks "Round 1/Round 2/Round N" Rewrite

Workflow

Scan file -> Mark AI traces -> Remove/Rewrite/Simplify -> Output summary

Verification

  • All tool names removed
  • Boilerplate rewritten to natural tone
  • Structure not overly flat or nested
