⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $1.2M/yr
85.0% probability / year
Normal year with steady operations, no major incidents; recurring monitoring, staffing, and upkeep only.
no incidents regular monitoring routine maintenance
🚨 Minor Incident $1.2M/yr
12.0% probability / year +$55K vs baseline
Occasional anomalous deviation or small incident requiring forensic analysis, short response deployment, minor repairs and limited PR/legal action.
SCP-1775-X behavioral deviation video forensic & consultant engagement short MTF response / sensor repair
🚨 Major Breach $1.9M/yr
3.0% probability / year +$750K vs baseline
Significant containment failure or public exposure requiring demolition/neutralization, large remediation, extended legal/PR response and major repairs.
uncontained anomalous escalation major public exposure decision to demolish/neutralize

📋 Confidence Notes
Estimates are built from analyst midpoints and detailed line items in the notes (medium confidence). Significant uncertainties remain around demolition likelihood, exact staffing/benefit rates, and variability in municipal costs, so point estimates use conservative mid-range assumptions.
