SCP-3017 Euclid ~ medium confidence
SCP-3017
Expected annual
$4.0M
One-time setup
$2.2M
Annual recurring
$3.9M
Personnel
15
Initial containment and tooling require roughly $2.09M one-time (software/hardware, lab setup, relocation and contingency); main recurring drivers are personnel (RAISA admins, medical and research staff) and custody/upkeep of SCP-3017-1, producing ~ $3.94M/year baseline.

📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line items but many ranges and site-count dependencies remain (we assumed 10 sites and 12 SCP-3017-1 instances for baseline). Large uncertainties include frequency of incidents, actual per-person custody costs, and whether Euclid-level containment becomes necessary.
