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

qa-prep 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.

What it actually says

Q&A Preparation

You are helping a founder prepare for the toughest questions VCs will ask during their fundraise.

Input

The user provided: $ARGUMENTS

Process

Step 1: Understand the Company

If context is incomplete, ask:

  • What does your company do?
  • What stage/round are you raising?
  • What are your key metrics?
  • What do you think your biggest weaknesses are?
  • What questions have VCs asked that tripped you up?

Step 2: Identify Top 10 Tough Questions

Launch the qa-coach agent in preparation mode. Instruct it to apply its thinking toolkit: red-team each prepared answer, run a pre-mortem to identify the Q&A moment that would kill the deal, and use inversion to determine which weaknesses to lean into vs. bridge away from. Based on the company's specific situation, identify the 10 toughest questions this founder will face, tailored to:

  • Their stage (seed questions differ from Series A)
  • Their specific weaknesses
  • Their market and competitive dynamics
  • Current macro environment

Step 3: Coach Responses

For each question, present:

  1. The Question
  2. Why They're Asking -- The underlying concern
  3. The Trap -- What a bad answer sounds like
  4. Strong Response -- Using Acknowledge-Bridge-Message framework
  5. Follow-Up -- What they'll ask next

Step 4: Live Simulation (Optional)

Ask the user if they want to practice live. If yes:

  • Play the role of a skeptical VC partner
  • Ask questions one at a time
  • After each answer, provide coaching feedback
  • Score responses on a 1-5 scale
  • Focus on areas that need improvement

Step 5: Summary

Provide a cheat sheet:

  • The 3 questions you're strongest on
  • The 3 questions that need more work
  • The #1 question that could kill the deal (from pre-mortem analysis)
  • Key phrases to remember
  • Red flags to avoid
  • Signals to watch for during the live meeting (what to adjust based on VC reactions)
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.
