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

jobs-that-pay-more-than-you-think 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 12d 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.

What it actually says

Jobs that pay more than you think

Find normal jobs with better-than-expected pay.

Tools

  • get_market_overview for salary signals by role/geo
  • search_jobs with salary_min once you know a floor
  • get_job_details to verify pay isn’t bait

Workflow

  1. Pick everyday categories: trades helpers, CDL, dental assisting, ultrasound, HVAC helper, pharmacy tech, underwriting associate, claims, union-adjacent, night differential healthcare, etc. Match to user location/skills.
  2. Use market overview + listings with known salaries.
  3. Call out when pay needs certs/shift work.

Output

List “sleeper” roles with pay evidence from tools only.

Changes

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.
