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

kb-criminal-procedure-uae-sboghossian 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 19d 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.

Knowledge Pack — Criminal Procedure in the UAE

Scope

This pack covers the UAE criminal procedure framework and the key substantive criminal laws relevant to commercial practice and individual conduct. UAE criminal law is a hybrid system: civil-law influenced code, overlaid with Islamic law for certain offences, with separate common-law regimes in DIFC and ADGM (civil only — no criminal jurisdiction in the free zones). This pack covers:

  • Primary legislation
  • Court structure
  • Investigation, arrest, and detention
  • Right to counsel
  • Trial procedure
  • Key substantive offences relevant to business
  • DIFC/ADGM criminal jurisdiction distinction
  • Practical guidance

Primary legislation

Statute Scope
Penal Code (Federal Law 3/1987 as amended) General criminal offences; most commercial crimes
Code of Criminal Procedure (CPC) (Federal Law 35/1992 as amended) Procedural rules; investigation; trial
Federal Decree-Law 34/2021 (Combating Rumours and Cybercrime) Cybercrime; digital offences; replaced 2012 cybercrime law
Federal Decree-Law 20/2018 (AML/CFT) Money laundering and terrorist financing offences
Federal Decree-Law 32/2021 (Economic Crimes) Financial and commercial crimes; fraud; breach of trust
Law 4/2016 (Counter-Terrorism) Terrorism offences; Specialized Federal Terrorism Court
Dubai Law 4/2022 (VARA) Virtual asset offences in Dubai

Court structure

Federal courts

Court Jurisdiction
Court of First Instance (Criminal Division) Most criminal matters first instance
Specialized federal courts Economic crimes, AML, terrorism, cybercrime (in Dubai and Abu Dhabi)
Court of Appeal Appeal on facts and law
Court of Cassation (emirate level) Further review on legal grounds
Federal Supreme Court Final review; constitutional matters; disputes between emirates

Emirate-level structure

Each emirate (Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, etc.) has its own courts:

  • Dubai courts: significant caseload; dedicated circuits for financial crime, cybercrime, commercial fraud
  • Abu Dhabi courts: federal circuit courts + Abu Dhabi local courts
  • DIFC Courts: civil and commercial only — no criminal jurisdiction; criminal matters arising in DIFC are handled by Dubai courts
  • ADGM Courts: civil and commercial only — no criminal jurisdiction

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.
