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

gcp-landing-zone-setup 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 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.

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.

GCP Landing Zone Setup

Purpose

GCP's isolation boundary is the project — cheap to create, billed independently, but with no inherent hierarchy unless one is imposed through Resource Manager folders. Without a landing zone, organizations accumulate hundreds of ungoverned projects with inconsistent Organization Policies, no shared VPC, and IAM bindings granted directly at the project level with no audit trail of why. This skill defines a landing zone aligned to Google's enterprise foundations blueprint: a folder hierarchy that encodes environment and business-unit boundaries, Organization Policy constraints enforced top-down, Shared VPC for centralized networking, and a repeatable project-vending factory — so new projects are compliant and network-connected the moment they're created.

When to use

  • Standing up a brand-new Google Cloud Organization or bringing ungoverned projects under Resource Manager folder control.
  • Designing the folder hierarchy and deciding which Organization Policy constraints apply at which folder level.
  • Onboarding a new team, product, or environment as a GCP project.
  • Migrating from ad hoc project creation to the Terraform-based project factory pattern (terraform-google-modules/project-factory).
  • Auditing an existing organization for projects that sit outside any folder governance, or for Organization Policy drift.

Prerequisites & environment

  • Organization Admin (roles/resourcemanager.organizationAdmin) or equivalent custom role at the Organization node to create folders and Organization Policies.
  • A Cloud Identity or Google Workspace domain already established (GCP Organizations are anchored to one of these) and Google Groups modeled for IAM binding (never bind IAM directly to individual user accounts in a landing zone).
  • gcloud CLI ≥ 470.0.0 and Terraform ≥ 1.5 with the google / google-beta providers ≥ 5.x if using IaC — the project-factory and folder modules track provider versions closely; pin them.
  • A billing account (or multiple, if business units are billed separately) and rights to link projects to it (roles/billing.user at minimum).
  • Decide the network model up front: Shared VPC (host project owns the VPC, service projects attach to it — the default recommendation) vs. VPC Network Peering between independent VPCs (only when workloads genuinely need separate network admin boundaries).
