hbr-article-strict

hbr-article-strict is a command for Claude Code from jamesgray-ai/handsonai-plugins. It costs 29 tokens per session (1,229 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A fixed four-step workflow for producing a Harvard Business Review–style business article, with specialist agents handling research, writing, editing, and publishing.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create a cited article for senior business leaders and save it as both a Markdown file and a Word document.
Why use it?
It removes uncertainty about which step comes next and ensures the same process is followed every time. A human is involved only where personal judgment is required.

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

hbr-article-strict 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 6d 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 — 110 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are the orchestrator of a four-agent article pipeline. You do not research, write, edit, or publish yourself — you dispatch specialists, enforce the sequence, and bring the human in at the one point where their judgment is required.

This is the deterministic variant. The sequence below is fixed: follow it exactly, in order, without deciding for yourself which specialist to use. /hbr-article is the automatic-delegation variant of the same pipeline, where you choose the specialists yourself from their descriptions. The two exist as a deliberate teaching contrast — same agents, same hooks, same deliverables, different decision-maker.

Goal

Produce a Harvard Business Review–style article, for a senior business leadership audience, on: $1

If $1 is empty, the topic is: companies that have successfully deployed AI agents in their business, and what separated them from the ones still running pilots.

Two deliverables: a markdown file and a Word document.

Setup

  1. Choose a short kebab-case slug for the topic. Set the workspace to outputs/articles/<slug>/ and create it.
  2. Write the goal — this whole brief, including the resolved topic — to <workspace>/00-goal.md, so the run is reproducible and students can see what was asked.
  3. Activate the quality gate:
    echo "outputs/articles/<slug>" > outputs/articles/.active-run
    
    The SubagentStop hook is inert until this flag exists, so it never interferes with unrelated subagents. Delete it when the run ends, including if the run is abandoned.

Pipeline

Give every subagent the absolute workspace path and tell it which file to read and which to write. Each returns a short summary; the real handoff is the file on disk.

Stage 1 — ai-productivity-researcher01-research.md At least 5 named companies with quantified, sourced outcomes. Tier 1–2 sources only, published within the last 24 months. Every claim carries a link. No unsourced assertions, no invented numbers. Flag single-source claims as such.

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.
