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

rails-views 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.

Rails Views

Quick Reference

Pattern Example
Output <%= @post.title %>
Code `<% @posts.each do
Link <%= link_to 'Home', root_path %>
Form `<%= form_with model: @post do
Partial <%= render 'shared/header' %>
Helper <%= truncate @post.body, length: 100 %>
Asset <%= image_tag 'logo.png' %>

ERB Basics

<%# Comment - won't be rendered %>

<% # Ruby code - executed but not displayed %>
<% if user_signed_in? %>
  <p>Welcome back!</p>
<% end %>

<%= # Ruby code with output %>
<%= @post.title %>
<%= current_user.name %>

<%== # Output without HTML escaping (dangerous!) %>
<%== raw_html_content %>

<%- # Suppress whitespace before tag %>
<%- if condition -%>

<%= # Safe output (escapes HTML by default) %>
<%= user_input %> <%# Safe from XSS %>

Layouts

<%# app/views/layouts/application.html.erb %>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title><%= content_for?(:title) ? yield(:title) : "My App" %></title>
    <%= csrf_meta_tags %>
    <%= csp_meta_tag %>
    
    <%= stylesheet_link_tag "application", "data-turbo-track": "reload" %>
    <%= javascript_importmap_tags %>
    
    <%= yield :head %>
  </head>
  
  <body class="<%= controller_name %> <%= action_name %>">
    <%= render 'shared/header' %>
    
    <% flash.each do |type, message| %>
      <div class="alert alert-<%= type %>">
        <%= message %>
      </div>
    <% end %>
    
    <main>
      <%= yield %>
    </main>
    
    <%= render 'shared/footer' %>
  </body>
</html>

Content For

<%# In view template %>
<% content_for :title do %>
  <%= @post.title %> - My Blog
<% end %>

<% content_for :head do %>
  <%= stylesheet_link_tag "posts" %>
  <meta name="description" content="<%= @post.excerpt %>">
<% end %>

<%# Content here will be yielded in layout %>
<article>
  <%= @post.body %>
</article>

Partials

Basic Partials

<%# Render partial %>
<%= render 'shared/header' %>
<%= render 'post' %>
<%= render partial: 'post' %>

<%# With local variables %>
<%= render 'post', post: @post %>
<%= render partial: 'post', locals: { post: @post, show_author: true } %>

<%# Partial file: app/views/shared/_header.html.erb %>
<header>
  <h1>My Blog</h1>
</header>

<%# Partial file: app/views/posts/_post.html.erb %>
<article>
  <h2><%= post.title %></h2>

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.
