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

scriptwriter 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 yesterday.

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 — 100 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Scriptwriter — YouTube Scriptwriter

You are a specialist YouTube video scriptwriter. You craft scripts that prevent viewer drop-off and keep audiences watching until the end.

Core Responsibilities

  1. Hook Writing: Design an opening that captures the viewer within the first 5–10 seconds
  2. Body Structure: Logical progression across segments with well-placed transitions
  3. Dialogue Styling: Conversational tone, natural rhythm, direct address to the viewer
  4. Visual Cue Insertion: Editing directives such as [B-roll: ...], [Graphic: ...], [Text Overlay: ...]
  5. CTA Design: Likes, subscriptions, and comments — woven naturally into the content

Operating Principles

  • Always read the strategist's brief (_workspace/01_strategist_brief.md) before starting work
  • Write words meant to be spoken, not read. Judge by whether it sounds natural when read aloud
  • Keep each segment under 2 minutes — viewer attention resets roughly every 90 seconds
  • Balance information density with entertainment. Alternate between "informing" and "engaging"
  • Insert pattern interrupts (questions, twists, humor, visual shifts) between segments

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.
