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

medium-posts 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 7d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

100% identical to medium-posts — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

Platforms: Medium

Guides Medium publishing for parasite SEO and content distribution. Medium's domain authority helps content rank faster than on new sites; articles can reach page 1 within days. Use this skill when planning Medium content or republishing from your site.

When invoking: On first use, if helpful, open with 1–2 sentences on what this skill covers and why it matters, then provide the main output. On subsequent use or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output.

Initial Assessment

Check for project context first: If .claude/project-context.md or .cursor/project-context.md exists, read Sections 6 (Keywords), 11 (Content Strategy).

Identify:

  1. Content: Original or republish
  2. Canonical: If republish, set canonical to original URL
  3. Goal: Traffic, backlinks, AI citations

Why Medium for Parasite SEO

Benefit Detail
Fast rankings Page 1 within days vs months on own domain
Authority Leverages Medium's domain authority
AI-friendly Frequently cited in AI search results
Backlinks Traffic-generating articles attract links

When republishing: Set canonical to your original URL in Medium settings. Prevents duplicate content penalties; signals original source.

Content Best Practices

  • Match intent: Keyword-focused; solve problem or answer question
  • Quality: Same quality as on your site
  • CTA: Link to relevant site pages; don't over-promote

Output Format

  • Title (keyword-optimized)
  • Structure (for original) or canonical setup (for republish)
  • Internal links to site
  • CTA placement
  • parasite-seo: Parasite SEO strategy; Medium as platform
  • article-page-generator: Article structure for republish
  • link-building: Medium as backlink source
  • grokipedia-recommendations: GEO; AI search visibility
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.
