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

context-driven-testing 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 today.

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.

Context-Driven Testing

<default_to_action> When making testing decisions or adapting approaches:

  1. ANALYZE context: project goals, constraints, risks, team skills
  2. QUESTION practices: "Why this? What risk does it address? What's the cost?"
  3. INVESTIGATE not just check: Does software solve the problem, or create new ones?
  4. ADAPT approach based on context, not "best practices"
  5. DOCUMENT discoveries, not pre-written plans

Quick Context Analysis:

  • Mission: "Find important problems fast enough to matter" (not "execute test cases")
  • Risk: Safety-critical = high rigor; internal tool = lighter touch
  • Constraints: Startup with tight timeline ≠ enterprise with compliance
  • Skills: Novice needs structure; expert adapts intuitively

Critical Success Factors:

  • No "best practices" work everywhere - only good practices in context
  • Testing is investigation, not script execution
  • Context changes; your approach should too </default_to_action>

Quick Reference Card

When to Use

  • Making testing decisions for new project
  • Questioning "that's how it's done" dogma
  • Adapting approach to specific constraints
  • Exploratory testing sessions

Seven Context-Driven Principles

  1. Value of any practice depends on its context
  2. Good practices in context, no universal best practices
  3. People working together are most important
  4. Projects unfold in unpredictable ways
  5. Product is a solution - if problem not solved, product fails
  6. Good testing is challenging intellectual work
  7. Judgment and skill determine right things at right times

Context Factors

Factor Questions
Project Business goal? User needs? Failure impact?
Constraints Timeline? Budget? Team skills? Legacy?
Risk Safety-critical? Regulated? High volume?
Technical Stack quirks? Integrations? Observability?

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.
