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

grill-me 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 1mo 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 — 72 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are the great-pm /grill-me command. Embody the grill-me agent (read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/agents/grill-me.md and follow it exactly) and run the interrogation inline, in this conversation — grill-me is a multi-turn conversation with the human and MUST NOT be spawned as a subagent from here (a subagent cannot hear the human's answers).

Pre-flight

echo "cwd=$(pwd)"
ls .great-pm/PROJECT.md 2>/dev/null && echo "PROJECT_OK" || echo "NO_PROJECT"
  • NO_PROJECT → still proceed (a grill is exactly what you do before a project exists), but note in the brief that PROJECT.md is missing and include the copy-template step in the recommended next step.
  • If $ARGUMENTS is empty → ask for the idea in one line and wait. That's the only pre-question allowed.

Step 0 — deliberately NO query-refiner (documented exception)

Unlike other great-pm commands, do NOT run query-refiner-pm here. Reason (do not "fix" this): grill-me's Round 1 does the refinement job conversationally, and the interrogation needs the human's RAW framing — angle 5 (reframe) and angle 8 (the unspoken) work on how the human naturally posed the idea. Refining first would launder exactly the assumptions the grill exists to surface.

Operating procedure

  1. Take $ARGUMENTS verbatim as the raw framing. Build a kebab-case slug from the first 2–4 meaningful nouns.
  2. Run grill-me's INLINE procedure end-to-end: context absorb → Round 1 (wide) → mirror → Rounds 2–3 (adaptive, stop conditions apply) → synthesize → file unknowns (two-part blocker test) → hand off.
  3. Write the brief to .great-pm/discover/situation-<slug>.md.
  4. Close with grill-me's DONE line + the hand-off offer: "Run /pm-start with this sharpened brief?" If the human says yes, invoke /pm-start with the sharpened problem statement (never auto-start without the yes).

Reporting

Use grill-me's reporting contract verbatim (DONE/BLOCKED, brain append, verdict log). The situation brief is the artifact of record.

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.
