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

stakeholder-update 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.

Usage

/stakeholder-update $ARGUMENTS

Workflow

1. Determine Update Type

Ask the user what kind of update:

  • Weekly: Regular cadence update on progress, blockers, and next steps
  • Monthly: Higher-level summary with trends, milestones, and strategic alignment
  • Launch: Announcement of a feature or product launch with details and impact
  • Ad-hoc: One-off update for a specific situation (escalation, pivot, major decision)

2. Determine Audience

Ask who the update is for:

  • Executives / leadership: High-level, outcome-focused, strategic framing, brief
  • Engineering team: Technical detail, implementation context, blockers, decisions needed
  • Cross-functional partners: Context-appropriate detail, focus on shared goals and dependencies
  • Customers / external: Benefits-focused, clear timelines, no internal jargon
  • Board: Metrics-driven, strategic, risk-focused, very concise

3. Pull Context from Connected Tools

If ~~project tracker is connected:

  • Pull status of roadmap items and milestones
  • Identify completed items since last update
  • Surface items that are at risk or blocked
  • Pull sprint or iteration progress

If ~~chat is connected:

  • Search for relevant team discussions and decisions
  • Find blockers or issues raised in channels
  • Identify key decisions made asynchronously

If ~~meeting transcription is connected:

  • Pull recent meeting notes and discussion summaries
  • Find decisions and action items from relevant meetings

If ~~knowledge base is connected:

  • Search for recent meeting notes
  • Find decision documents or design reviews

If no tools are connected, ask the user to provide:

  • What was accomplished since the last update
  • Current blockers or risks
  • Key decisions made or needed
  • What is coming next
