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

vllm-rfc-generator 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 131 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

vLLM RFC Generator

Generate a vLLM-style RFC Markdown document from user-provided information and save it to ./outputs/.

Inputs

Collect the following from the user (ask if not provided):

Field Required Description
RFC Title Yes Short, descriptive title (will be prefixed with [RFC]:)
Main Content Yes Description of the motivation and proposed changes
Related PRs No List of PR numbers or URLs; classify them by category
Feedback Period No Duration for feedback (default: "At least 1 week")
CC List No GitHub usernames to CC (e.g., @user1, @user2)
Other Notes No Any additional context or notes

Workflow

  1. Collect inputs — gather all necessary information from the user
  2. Classify PRs — if PRs are provided, group them by category (see PR Classification below)
  3. Generate RFC content — write each section following the template
  4. Save output — write to ./outputs/rfc-<slug>.md
  5. Confirm — tell the user the output path

PR Classification

When the user provides related PRs, classify them into appropriate categories such as:

  • Background / Motivation PRs — existing issues, bugs, or prior discussions that motivate this RFC
  • Implementation PRs — concrete code changes implementing the proposed design
  • Dependency PRs — prerequisite changes that must land first
  • Related / Follow-up PRs — tangential improvements or future work inspired by this RFC

Format each category as a bullet list:

### Related PRs

**Background / Motivation:**
- [#XXXX](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/pull/XXXX): Brief description

**Implementation:**
- [#YYYY](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/pull/YYYY): Brief description

**Dependencies:**
- [#ZZZZ](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/pull/ZZZZ): Brief description

If a PR number has no description, fetch its title via the GitHub API or gh CLI:

gh pr view <NUMBER> --repo vllm-project/vllm --json title,url -q '"\(.url): \(.title)"'

What ships with it

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.
