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

medical-liability-defense 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 24d 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 — 227 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Triage de ação por erro médico. Não é parecer de mérito final — é leitura estruturada para triagem, com recomendações de estratégia defensiva.

Cobre:

  1. Identificação da alegação (diagnóstico incorreto? Erro cirúrgico? Falta de consentimento? Abandono?)
  2. Padrão de cuidado (era um padrão de meio ou resultado? Qual é o padrão vigente?)
  3. Culpa sob CC Arts. 186/927/951 [modelo conhecimento — verificar].
  4. Nexo causal (a conduta causou o dano? Há eventos intermediários que quebram a cadeia?)
  5. Qualidade do termo de consentimento informado (estava adequado? Documentado?)
  6. Quesitos para perícia médica (o que perguntar ao perito?).
  7. Responsabilidade solidária do hospital (Lei 9.656 se envolver operadora [modelo conhecimento — verificar], ou Código Civil/CDC se consumidor [modelo conhecimento — verificar]).
  8. Defesa estratégica (quais são nossas melhores defensivas? Ordem de prioridade?).

Output: triage rating (forte, debatível, fraco), matriz de defensivas, recomendação de postura, quesitos sugeridos para perícia.

Purpose

Medical malpractice claims have a specific anatomy: allegation of breach of standard of care, causation, and damages. This skill reads the demand or complaint, maps the anatomy, and surfaces which pieces are weak.

A triage read, not an opinion. The team decides whether to fight, settle, or watch.


Premissa de jurisdição (Brasil)

Responsabilidade civil por erro médico — Código Civil (Lei 10.406/2002) Arts. 186–405:

  • Art. 186: Quem causa dano a outrem fica obrigado a repará-lo.
  • Arts. 389–405: Obrigação de meio vs. resultado. A maioria das obrigações médicas são de meio, não resultado — o médico se obriga a usar diligência e conhecimento, não a curar [modelo conhecimento — verificar]. Exceção: algumas intervenções (cirurgia estética, implante com garantia) podem ser de resultado.
  • Art. 927: Culpa (negligência, imprudência, imperícia) é elemento necessário [modelo conhecimento — verificar].
  • Arts. 951: Profissional liberal responde por culpa [modelo conhecimento — verificar].

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.
