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

dblp-api 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 7d 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.

DBLP API Guide

Overview

DBLP (Digital Bibliography and Library Project) is the most comprehensive open bibliographic database for computer science. Maintained by Schloss Dagstuhl - Leibniz Center for Informatics, DBLP indexes over 6.5 million publications from thousands of journals, conference proceedings, and informal publication venues in computer science and related fields.

DBLP is widely regarded as the authoritative source for computer science bibliographic data. It is used by researchers for tracking publication records, by hiring committees for evaluating academic productivity, and by bibliometric tools for analyzing the computer science research landscape. Each author in DBLP has a unique profile page with a complete, disambiguated publication list.

The API is entirely free and open, requiring no authentication. There are no published rate limits, though users are expected to be respectful and avoid excessive load on the servers. All data is available under the ODC-BY license.

Authentication

No authentication required. The DBLP API is fully open and free to use. No API key, registration, or email is needed. Users should include a descriptive User-Agent header and avoid sending excessive concurrent requests.

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.
