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

continuum-streaming 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 150 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Continuum Streaming Skill

Authoritative sources: docs/agent.md §3 and the EventType enum in continuum/agent/types.py.


Imports

from continuum.agent import AgentRunner
from continuum.agent.types import EventType, AgentEvent

Smallest possible stream

runner = AgentRunner()

async for ev in runner.run_stream(agent, "Tell me a story", user_id="u1", session_id="s1"):
    if ev.type == EventType.CONTENT_DELTA:
        print(ev.data["content"], end="", flush=True)

run_stream() returns an AsyncIterator[AgentEvent]. Every event carries: type: EventType, agent_name: str, run_id: str, data: dict, timestamp, trace_id, span_id.


Full event reference

EventType Fires event.data keys
RUN_START Run begins agent_name, input_preview
RUN_END Run completes status, latency_ms, usage
RUN_ERROR Run fails error, error_type
AGENT_START Each agent (incl. handoff target) starts agent_name
AGENT_END Each agent ends agent_name, status
CONTENT_DELTA LLM token chunks content (partial text)
CONTENT_COMPLETE LLM emits a full assistant message content
TOOL_CALL_START A tool is about to run tool_name, arguments
TOOL_CALL_END Tool returned successfully tool_name, result
TOOL_CALL_ERROR Tool raised tool_name, error
HANDOFF_START Source agent invoking the handoff tool from_agent, to_agent, reason
HANDOFF_END Target agent finished from_agent, to_agent
HANDOFF_RETURN Control returned to source (return_to_parent=True) from_agent, to_agent
MEMORY_RETRIEVAL Long-term memories injected into prompt count, query
MEMORY_STORAGE New memories stored after the turn count
WORKFLOW_STEP Workflow agent advanced step, agent_name
LOOP_ITERATION LoopAgent completed an iteration iteration, output

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.
