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 Risk Review 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 11d 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 Risk Review

Purpose

Produce a structured, attorney-ready risk review of a commercial contract. This skill applies to master services agreements (MSAs), vendor and supplier agreements, professional services agreements, software licenses, and similar commercial instruments. It identifies and assesses risk across standard clause categories, produces a completed risk matrix, and surfaces issues requiring attorney attention before the contract is executed, modified, or relied upon.

This skill produces draft legal work product for attorney review only. It is not legal advice and does not constitute a final negotiating position.

Use When

  • A user asks to "review this contract," "flag the risks in this agreement," "what should I push back on," or "is this MSA standard."
  • A vendor, supplier, or service provider has sent a contract and the client needs a first-pass review before negotiation or execution.
  • The user is preparing to redline a commercial agreement and needs a structured starting point.
  • A contract is being renewed or amended and the user wants to understand baseline risk exposure.
  • An in-house team or business owner needs a risk summary before escalating to outside counsel.
  • The user needs to compare risk posture across multiple inbound form agreements.

Required Inputs

  • The full contract text — uploaded or pasted. Do not review from a description, summary, or excerpt alone; the full document is required.
  • The client's role — which party is the client (e.g., customer/buyer, vendor/service provider, licensor, licensee)?
  • Business context — what is the commercial relationship, what is being provided or received, and what is the approximate transaction value or risk exposure?
  • Counterparty form or negotiated draft — note whether this is the counterparty's standard form (higher scrutiny) or a negotiated draft.
  • Optional: the practice group's practice-profiles/contracts.md if it has been populated and is loaded alongside this skill. If present, the skill uses its Standard Positions and Escalation Thresholds tables to benchmark the output and to gate escalation. If absent, the skill proceeds without practice-profile benchmarking and asks the user to supply standing positions inline if needed.

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.
