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

contract-redliner 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 28d 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.

Contract Redliner

Systematic contract review methodology with clause-by-clause analysis, risk scoring, redline markup, and negotiation strategy for commercial agreements.

Contract Review Methodology

Systematic Review Process

PHASE 1: TRIAGE (5 minutes)
  - Identify contract type (SaaS, services, licensing, employment, NDA)
  - Determine your party's position (buyer/seller, licensor/licensee)
  - Note contract value and term
  - Flag overall risk level for appropriate review depth

PHASE 2: STRUCTURAL SCAN (10 minutes)
  - Verify all standard sections present
  - Check for missing critical clauses
  - Note any unusual structure or ordering
  - Identify exhibits, schedules, and SOWs

PHASE 3: CLAUSE-BY-CLAUSE REVIEW (bulk of time)
  - Review each clause against standard/market terms
  - Score risk level per clause
  - Draft redline markup for non-standard terms
  - Note clauses requiring business input

PHASE 4: RISK SUMMARY AND REDLINE (10 minutes)
  - Compile risk register
  - Prioritize redlines (must-have vs nice-to-have)
  - Draft negotiation talking points
  - Prepare executive summary

Review Depth by Contract Value

Contract Value Review Depth Reviewer Level Turnaround
< $25K Light scan, template comparison Paralegal / Junior 1-2 days
$25K - $250K Standard clause review Associate 3-5 days
$250K - $1M Deep review with risk memo Senior Associate 5-7 days
$1M - $10M Full review + negotiation strategy Senior Attorney 7-14 days
> $10M Multi-lawyer review + specialist input Partner-led team 14-30 days

Common Clause Types

Standard vs Non-Standard Terms

Clause Standard/Market Watch For
Term 1-3 years with auto-renewal Evergreen with difficult termination
Termination for Convenience 30-90 days notice No convenience termination right
Limitation of Liability Cap at 12 months fees paid Uncapped liability, one-sided
Indemnification Mutual, limited to IP and breach Unlimited, one-sided, broad triggers
Confidentiality 2-5 year survival, mutual Perpetual, asymmetric obligations
IP Ownership Each party retains pre-existing IP Broad assignment of derivative works
Warranty Industry-standard warranties Excessive warranties or broad disclaimers
Data Protection DPA aligned with applicable law No DPA, weak data obligations
Force Majeure Mutual, covers standard events One-sided, too broad or too narrow
Governing Law Counterparty's or neutral jurisdiction Inconvenient or unfavorable forum

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.
