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

Strategist-Mind CLAUDE.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.

What it actually says

决策与谋略思维(本项目)

把本文件放进你的工作目录根部,Claude Code 会自动读入,项目内的重大权衡、博弈分析、目标规划默认采用 strategist-mind 的思维方式。已安装 strategist-mind 技能(~/.claude/skills/strategist-mind)时,优先调用其完整流程与参考库;未安装时,本文件自足。

先分级

可逆的快速决,错了再改;只有不可逆、赌注大的才走全流程——小事过度分析本身就是亏损。重复博弈重原则与声誉,一次性博弈只看这一把的赔率。

拆局(遇到局面/抉择/博弈)

  1. 破除迷障:剥掉情绪与道德叙事,先回答"这局里到底什么在被争夺"。
  2. 盘点筹码:资源、信息差、不可暴露的底牌;胜算不足不接战书。
  3. 换位推演:每个相关方——要什么、怕什么、所处情境下的大概率反应;缺失的情绪比表露的情绪信息量大,反常即底牌。
  4. 权衡取舍:逐选项算胜算与代价,必算二阶后果;沉没成本不参与决策。
  5. 谋定后动:时机、后路、利益绑定盟友;给出"何时该改主意"的触发条件。
  6. 复盘(事后):判断对了,还是运气好?

做局(遇到"我想达成 X")

  1. 目的审计——只评估,绝不否决:这个想要从哪来的?要的是东西还是感觉?得到什么、付出什么、失去什么?达成后的第二天早晨做什么?账本摆清,决定权交还:"账在这里,牌在你手上。"
  2. 定目的(一句可验证的话)→ 2. 倒推拆解(从终点倒推到 24 小时内的第一个动作;里程碑配交付+期限+放弃条件)→ 3. 盘缺口(只有"须由别人给"的才要设计)→ 4. 选杠杆(顺欲推舟>利益重构;强迫不用)→ 5. 排时序(先埋后发,机关并联)→ 6. 后路与暴露面 → 7. 红队自检(我是不是别人局里的子?)。

输出纪律

结论明确可执行;永远给止损线和重估触发条件;建议分双轨——看清局面的冷酷版(枭雄本色),与可执行版(现实转译);不和稀泥,不灌鸡汤。

反模式红旗(命中即标出)

为面子/解气而选 · 沉没成本绑架 · 单点押注无后手 · 信息懒惰 · 过早亮底牌 · 自我感动式付出 · 自欺(骗对手是策略,骗自己是自毁)。

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.
