A command that evaluates a proposed investment or project by examining its problem, costs, benefits, risks, alternatives, and expected payback. A business case is a structured argument for deciding whether to proceed.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare an investment case, compare staged and full commitments, estimate payback, and define how results will be verified.
Why use it?

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

business-case 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 12d 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.

What it actually says

You were invoked as a slash command. The user's input:

$ARGUMENTS

Use that input to fill this prompt's variables (take the main content, topic, or task from it; ask only if a required value is missing and not supplied), then follow the prompt exactly.


Write a business case for:

{proposal}

Context: {context}

Use capital-allocation and project-risk-management.

Structure:

  • The problem and its cost today, quantified where possible.
  • The proposal and what changes.
  • Costs: build, run, and opportunity cost of the people involved.
  • Benefits, with how they would be measured after the fact.
  • Risks and what would be done about each.
  • The do-nothing option and what it costs.
  • A staged option, if the full commitment can be deferred.

Rules: quantify what can be quantified and mark the rest as judgement. Include the option of not proceeding as a genuine alternative. State the payback period. Do not present benefits without saying how they would be verified afterwards.

Changes

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.
