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

bookkeeping-basics 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 5d 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.

Bookkeeping Basics

Overview

Bookkeeping tracks where money comes from and where it goes. Most solopreneurs hate bookkeeping, so they avoid it — then face chaos at tax time or when applying for loans. This playbook gives you a simple system: minimal time, maximum clarity. Disclaimer: This is educational content, not professional accounting advice. Consult a CPA for complex situations.


Step 1: Choose Your Accounting Software

Don't use spreadsheets. Use accounting software. It automates most of the work and keeps you compliant.

Software comparison:

Software Best For Pricing Learning Curve Features
Wave Freelancers, very small businesses Free (pay for payments/payroll) Easy Basic invoicing, expense tracking, reports
QuickBooks Online Most solopreneurs, scaling businesses $15-50/month Medium Full accounting, invoicing, tax reports, integrations
FreshBooks Service businesses, invoicing-heavy $17-55/month Easy Invoicing, time tracking, expense tracking
Xero International businesses, contractors $13-70/month Medium Full accounting, multi-currency, payroll

Selection guide:

  • Just starting, no revenue yet → Wave (free)
  • Revenue < $50K/year → Wave or FreshBooks
  • Revenue $50K-250K/year → QuickBooks Online
  • International clients or contractors → Xero

Recommendation: Start with Wave (free). Upgrade to QuickBooks when you hit $50K revenue or need more features.


Step 2: Set Up Your Chart of Accounts

A chart of accounts is a list of categories for organizing income and expenses. Most software comes with defaults — use them unless you have a specific reason to customize.

Basic chart of accounts (solopreneur):

INCOME CATEGORIES:

  • Sales Revenue (product/service sales)
  • Consulting Revenue
  • Other Income (interest, refunds, etc.)

EXPENSE CATEGORIES:

  • Cost of Goods Sold (COGS): Direct costs to deliver your product/service (if applicable)
  • Operating Expenses:
    • Advertising / Marketing
    • Software / Tools / Subscriptions
    • Contractor Payments
    • Office Supplies
    • Professional Services (lawyer, accountant)
    • Travel / Meals (business-related)
    • Insurance
    • Bank Fees / Merchant Fees
    • Home Office Deduction (if applicable)
    • Utilities (if home office)
    • Other Expenses

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.
