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

b2b-contact-finder-guides AGENTS.md 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 10d 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.

AGENTS.md — B2B Contact Finder Guides

What This Repo Is

A collection of long-form B2B lead generation and contact-finding guides authored by Axel Freeman. Each guide teaches a specific technique (manual research, tool comparisons, platform scraping) for finding verified B2B contacts. The repo is public-facing content marketing — articles are published on axelfreeman.com and cross-linked from other marketing properties.

Relationship to TAPAC

TAPAC (tapac.ai) is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that automates B2B contact discovery with SMTP-based email validation. Every guide in this repo positions TAPAC as the premium automated option in a three-tier framework:

  1. Free / manual — do it by hand, learn the market
  2. AI scrapers / GitHub tools — free but require technical setup
  3. TAPAC MCP — automated, validated, AI-agent compatible, $0.10-0.50/contact

The guides are content marketing that educates genuinely while creating demand for TAPAC. When editing, preserve this tier structure — it's the core funnel.

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.
