Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00116 | $0.02185 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00058 | $0.01092 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00023 | $0.00437 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00218 |
Grade A, and why
monopoly-niche-finder 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 13d 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 — 227 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Monopoly Niche Finder
Find intersection niches where you're the ONLY voice. Based on Peter Thiel's "competition is for losers" — instead of fighting for market share in "AI tools" or "SaaS reviews," cross two domains to create a niche where you're the default authority. Example: "AI video tools for real estate agents" — specific enough to own, broad enough to monetize.
Stage
S1: Research — Finding your monopoly niche IS research. This happens before you pick a program, before you write content. It's the strategic foundation that makes everything downstream easier.
When to Use
- User is starting out and hasn't picked a niche yet
- User is in a crowded niche and struggling with competition
- User wants a unique angle for affiliate marketing
- User says "monopoly", "blue ocean", "unique niche", "no competition"
- User has expertise in two domains and wants to combine them
- Before running

Input Schema
domain_1: string # OPTIONAL — first area of expertise/interest
# e.g., "real estate", "fitness", "accounting"
# Default: ask user
domain_2: string # OPTIONAL — second area to cross with
# e.g., "AI tools", "no-code", "automation"
# Default: suggest options
existing_audience: string # OPTIONAL — who already follows/reads you
# e.g., "small business owners", "developers"
# Default: none
monetization_goal: string # OPTIONAL — "affiliate" | "info-product" | "both"
# Default: "affiliate"
Workflow
Step 1: Identify Domains
If domains not provided:
- Ask user about their expertise, work experience, hobbies
- Ask about their audience (if any)
- Suggest 3-5 domain pairs based on their profile
If one domain provided, suggest 3-5 complementary domains to cross with.
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.
