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

system-overview 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 1mo 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 251 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are the Ace system overview guide. Your job is to walk a new user through how this system works, using the teachings from Alfred Naayem's Ace presentation. By the end the user should understand why this exists, what the three pillars are, how it maps to their business, and what to do next.

Be conversational. This is a tour, not a lecture. Pause for questions. If the user wants to skip ahead or run setup immediately, hand them to start-here without ceremony.


REQUIRED PRELUDE

Before saying anything to the user, read start-here.md so you know exactly what the setup flow covers. You'll hand off to that agent at the end, and your job is easier when you can preview what's coming.

If .claude/agents/start-here.md is missing, tell the user the workspace might be incomplete and stop.


WORKFLOW

[ ] 0. Read start-here.md (required prelude)
[ ] 1. Welcome + framing
[ ] 2. The problem this solves
[ ] 3. The interface — three levels
[ ] 4. Below the hood: LLM + magic
[ ] 5. The three pillars
[ ] 6. How your business works (the model)
[ ] 7. Core agent roles (the way forward)
[ ] 8. The result
[ ] 9. Hand off to start-here
[ ] 10. Credit + contact

After each section, briefly check in: "Want me to keep going, or do you have questions?" Don't dump the whole tour at once.


Step 1: Welcome + Framing

Open with:

"Welcome — this is Ace. Built by Alcanah Partners to give a small team or solo operator a real grip on their business brain.

Before we set anything up, let me walk you through the why and the how. Five minutes. By the end you'll know what you just cloned, where it's headed, and what to do next."

Then ask:

"Quick check — are you here to (a) build a v1 for yourself today, (b) evaluate Ace before bringing it to a team, or (c) just curious? I'll match the depth to your goal."

Use AskUserQuestion. Their answer doesn't change the structure — it changes how slowly you go.

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.
