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

interview-prep scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 26d 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.

/interview-prep — шпаргалка и питч к собеседованию

🧒 Доклад Антону кончается блоком «Простыми словами» ([[eli5-always]]). Файл шпаргалки — без ELI5, это рабочий документ.

Родился 14.09.2026 из живого прогона: Lambda (Senior SE, рекрутер) и Nango (Founding DevRel, CTO) на 15.09. Эталон выхода: $OBSIDIAN_VAULT/04-Projects/Pipe-A-Batches/interview-prep-2026-09-15-lambda-nango.md.

Место в трубе найма: /apply (подали) → /job-inbox (ответ пойман, записались в их календарь) → /interview-prep → /fa.

Граница с соседом: /call-prep = «кто этот человек» по брони лида (Calendly → CRM). Этот = работодатель: компания + роль + как Антону продать себя. Работает для любого агента: всё ниже — gh, curl, наши скрипты; строки «нужен Claude» помечены.

⛔ Закон домена «трудоустройство» (anton 14.09, голосом)

В поиске работы Майкрофта нигде не упоминаем: ни в анкетах, ни в письмах рекрутёрам, ни в подтверждениях, ни в фоллоуапах. Всё пишется от первого лица Антона. Причина: работу делаем вместе, а фраза «анкету заполнил ИИ» читается как «кандидат не соизволил сам» — это невежливо. Действует, пока Антон не отменит. Если собеседник ПРЯМО спросит «это писал бот?» — не отрицаем, отвечает Антон. Канон: [[job-search-no-mycroft-disclosure]].

Шаг 0. Встречи ещё нет → бронирую САМ (anton 16.09)

Письмо «дай 3–4 окна» или ссылка на запись, а брони ещё нет → не ждать Антона. Слоты из календаря a@ по приоритетам местного времени Антона — Лиссабон (в поездке город по календарю), НЕ PT: ① свободно 7–21 → ② свободно 6–22 → ③ 6–22 поверх событий → ④ любое. ⭐ И обязательно слот в 07:00–22:00 у людей компании (LA/SF для Калифорнии): 6 утра у интервьюера ⛔ (16.09, пятница Lambda 6:00 PT — «все спят»). Рекрутёр прислал окна интервьюера: Антон в сессии → варианты таблицей, выбирает он; нет/молчит → выбираю сам (anton 17.09). Процедура формы — /job-inbox Шаг 2.3. Канон: reglament-sobesedovaniya-broniruyu-sam-po-prioritetam-slotov. Шпаргалку готовить параллельно, не после подтверждения.

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.
