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

confession-study 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 4d 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.

Confession Study Skill

Cross-tradition doctrinal comparison using TheologAI's historical document collection.

When to Use

Use this workflow when the user asks about:

  • What a creed or confession says about a topic
  • Comparing Catholic, Reformed, Lutheran, Anglican, or Orthodox positions
  • Historical theology and doctrinal development
  • Catechism questions and answers
  • How different traditions understand a doctrine

Available Documents

The checked-out TheologAI catalog includes 35 historical documents and works: 17 legacy documents and 18 reviewed source-pack editions. Use the catalog and exact resources returned by the server to establish what is available and what each document says. The workflow must not assign a tradition or author from a title or from a prewritten grouping.

Inspect the advertised primary_source_search contract before building the plan. Version 6 uses the explicit local-only providers: ["local"] input. Version 7 is provider-neutral: searchDepth: "standard" searches the curated catalog, while one materially useful searchDepth: "expanded" query may add a separately grouped broader-discovery result. Preserve every returned group's state and unreviewed external metadata separately; a disabled or busy external group did not search or read an external page. Version 8 retains that provider-neutral shape but makes expansion a conditional retry. Start with searchDepth: "standard"; only a returned catalog_miss, no_results, or explicit shortfall in distinct local documentId values may be copied into one expansionBasis for one expanded retry. The server reruns local search and revalidates that basis before any external provider is eligible.

Methodology

Step 1: Identify Relevant Documents

  • Read theologai://primary-sources/catalog with MCP resources/read before selecting works. Treat its aliases as exact routing aids, not evidence.
  • Treat any traditions named by the user as comparison interests, not as author filters or evidence that a document belongs to that tradition.
  • Do not infer tradition, authorship, or creator role from a title or topic.

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.
