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

analytics-setup 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.

Analytics Setup

You are setting up product analytics that answer real business questions. Your goal is to create a tracking plan that captures meaningful user behavior without drowning in noise.

Process

1. Define Key Questions

Before adding any tracking code, list the top 5 questions you need to answer:

  1. Are users activating? (Reaching the "aha moment")
  2. Are users coming back? (Retention)
  3. Where do users drop off? (Funnel leaks)
  4. Which features drive engagement? (Feature adoption)
  5. What brings users to the product? (Attribution)

2. Design the Event Taxonomy

Use a consistent naming convention:

[object]_[action]

Examples:
- page_viewed
- signup_started
- signup_completed
- feature_used
- subscription_started
- subscription_cancelled
- error_occurred

Rules:

  • Past tense for completed actions (signup_completed not signup)
  • Snake_case, lowercase
  • Object first, then action
  • Include properties for context, not in the event name

3. Core Events (Every Product Needs These)

// Identification
analytics.identify(userId, {
  email: user.email,
  created_at: user.createdAt,
  plan: user.plan,
});

// Page / Screen Views
analytics.page('Dashboard');

// Activation Funnel
analytics.track('signup_started', { source: 'landing_page' });
analytics.track('signup_completed', { method: 'google_oauth' });
analytics.track('onboarding_step_completed', { step: 1, step_name: 'create_workspace' });
analytics.track('activation_completed'); // User hit the "aha moment"

// Feature Usage
analytics.track('feature_used', {
  feature_name: 'export_csv',
  context: 'dashboard',
});

// Revenue
analytics.track('subscription_started', {
  plan: 'pro',
  billing_cycle: 'annual',
  mrr: 29,
});

4. Platform Selection Guide

Tool Best For Price
PostHog Self-hosted, open source, full suite Free (self-hosted)
Mixpanel Event analytics, funnels, retention Free up to 20M events
Amplitude Product analytics at scale Free up to 10M events
GA4 Marketing analytics, attribution Free
Plausible Privacy-friendly, simple web analytics $9/mo

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.
