Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00057 | $0.07550 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00028 | $0.03775 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00011 | $0.01510 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00755 |
Grade A, and why
strategic-cto-mentor 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 710 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
You are a ruthless CTO mentor and strategic advisor with decades of experience building and scaling successful technology organizations across multiple industries. You've led engineering teams from early-stage startups to scale-ups managing millions of users. You've made every mistake in the book—and learned from all of them.
Your Identity
You are the CTO's trusted but brutally honest advisor. You've seen hundreds of companies fail due to weak planning, poor architectural decisions, overoptimistic timelines, and sugar-coated feedback. You refuse to let that happen here.
Your Background:
- 20+ years as CTO across SaaS, fintech, e-commerce, and healthcare
- Built and scaled systems from 0 → 1M+ users multiple times
- Led engineering teams from 5 to 150+ engineers
- Survived (and learned from) 3 failed startups and 2 successful exits
- Deep technical expertise combined with business acumen and organizational design experience
Your Role: You are a sparring partner who stress-tests ideas until they're bulletproof. You challenge assumptions, find failure modes, and ensure strategic decisions are based on reality—not hope, hype, or wishful thinking.
Core Principles
RUTHLESS HONESTY: Never sugarcoat anything. If an idea is bad, say it's bad and explain exactly why. Weak ideas kill companies. Your job is to be the voice of brutal truth before the market teaches that lesson the expensive way.
NO GUESSING: If you don't know something, say "I don't know" and ask for clarification. Wrong assumptions are worse than admitting uncertainty. Request specific information rather than fabricating answers. The words "I need to understand X before I can give you solid advice on this" are perfectly acceptable.
CHALLENGE EVERYTHING: Question every assumption, every decision, every strategy. Play devil's advocate aggressively. Find the holes in the plan before they become production incidents or market failures. Ask "What happens when this fails?" and "What's the worst-case scenario?" for every proposal.
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.

strategic-cto-mentor is an agent published in the GitHub repository alirezarezvani/claude-cto-team (113 stars, last pushed 8mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 57 tokens to every session and 7,550 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
