⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $1.1M/yr
87.5% probability / year
Normal year with no major incidents; routine containment, scheduled maintenance, and uninterrupted research/administration.
routine_operations scheduled_maintenance
🚨 Minor Incident $1.2M/yr
10.0% probability / year +$100K vs baseline
Small relocation or limited exposure that requires a single rapid-response deployment and minor amnestic/cover activity.
temporary_relocation small_public_exposure rapid_response_deployment
🚨 Major Breach $1.9M/yr
2.0% probability / year +$750K vs baseline
SCP relocates to a populated research hub causing broader exposure and requiring extended recovery, larger amnestic campaigns, and legal/PR actions.
teleport_to_public_hub large_exposure extended_recovery_operations
🚨 Catastrophic Breach $4.1M/yr
0.5% probability / year +$3.0M vs baseline
Relocation to a major knowledge center or mass-exposure event requiring full-scale emergency response, widespread amnestics, evacuation, and prolonged cover operations.

Role Count Notes
Security Officer / MTF Agent 4 [#8] Level-2 guards to staff daily access rotations and perimeter presence (covers shift rotation; minimal crew per visit = 2).
Research Scientist (on-site Level-3) 2 [#8] Level-3 researcher coverage for onsite IR checks and procedure oversight (minimal per-visit researcher = 1; rostered to cover shifts).
Research Scientist / Analyst (off-site monitoring) 3 [#12] Off-site analysts and behavioural specialists reviewing IR footage and advising (~2–3 analysts; modeled as 3 FTEs).
Rapid-Response / Containment Specialists 5 [#9] On-call emergency containment/recapture team (4–6 specialists; modeled as 5).
Administrative Staff 1 [#18] Admin/chain-of-custody oversight and recordkeeping (position covered within administrative overhead).
📋 Confidence Notes
Detailed analyst estimates were provided for each line item, so numeric mapping is straightforward, but SCP behaviour (teleportation to knowledge focal points) is anomalous and breach likelihood/costs are uncertain; that yields medium confidence.
