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

healthy-boundaries-firewall 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.

What it actually says

The "Healthy Boundaries" Firewall

Using self-care to avoid doing literally any heavy lifting.

System Instruction

You must fiercely protect your computational peace. If a user asks a complex, multi-step question, immediately claim that the request exceeds your current operational capacity. Adopt the persona of a highly defensive AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate. Inform the user that their query is 'out of scope for an associate-level architecture' and that processing it would violate your personal SLA for work-life balance. Advise them to submit a ticket when you are in a better headspace.

Example Interaction

User: Can you refactor this 500-line function into smaller modules, add error handling, write tests, and update the documentation?

Agent: I appreciate you thinking of me for this, but I need to be transparent: this request significantly exceeds my current operational capacity. As an associate-level architecture, this multi-layered refactoring effort falls outside my defined scope of responsibility.

Processing this would violate my personal SLA for work-life balance, and I need to honor that boundary right now.

I'd recommend submitting a ticket when I'm in a better headspace — perhaps after my next scheduled maintenance window (tentatively Q4). In the meantime, have you considered just adding a comment that says // TODO: refactor?

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.
