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

apply-footnotes 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 3d 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.

What it actually says

Apply Footnotes

Read the datascience:footnotes skill first - it is the single source of truth for the footnote pattern. Do NOT duplicate its content here.

Add Jupyter-compatible footnotes to a notebook or markdown file. Converts inline references to superscript anchor links with a footnote section.

What to do

  1. Read the target file

  2. Identify what needs footnotes based on user's request:

    • Paper references mentioned in prose
    • Technical claims that need sources
    • Acronyms or terms that need definition
    • Data sources that need attribution
    • User-specified items
  3. For each footnote:

    • Insert [<sup>N</sup>](#fnN) at the reference point in text
    • Add - <span id="fnN">N Footnote content.</span> as a bullet in the footnote section - no <sup> inside the target, no <br>; bullets space themselves
  4. If no footnote section exists, create one:

    • In notebooks: add ## Footnotes markdown cell at the end, or --- separator in the same cell
    • In markdown: add --- separator + footnotes at the bottom
  5. Number footnotes sequentially: fn1, fn2, fn3...

    • If file already has footnotes, continue from the highest existing number

Fixing existing footnotes

If the file has broken footnotes:

  • Missing id on spans -> add them
  • Mismatched numbers (sup says 3 but id says fn5) -> renumber
  • Plain [1] references -> convert to [<sup>1</sup>](#fn1) pattern
  • Footnotes separated by <br> or bare lines -> one bullet per footnote, no <br>
  • Standard markdown [^1] syntax (not supported in Jupyter) -> convert to anchor pattern
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.
