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

progress-md-business 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 2mo 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.

PROGRESS.md — Executive Dashboard for Business Projects

This skill enforces the creation and maintenance of PROGRESS.md as the authoritative executive dashboard for any business or product project. The file is read first by stakeholders and AI agents to understand current state, next phase, and key metrics.

Core Rule

Every business or product project MUST have PROGRESS.md at the repository root. This file serves as the single source of truth for project phase, vision, milestones, and impact metrics. It is NOT a changelog, NOT a technical design document, and NOT a session handoff—it is the executive view.

What PROGRESS.md Contains

  • Project phase — current state (Validation → Build → Launch → Growth → Paused → Cancelled)
  • Project vision — problem statement, target customer, differentiated value, revenue model
  • High-level milestones — key deliverables by phase with completion status
  • Impact metrics — quantitative measures of progress (user growth, retention, revenue, engagement, etc.)
  • Current blockers — what is preventing progress, with severity
  • Next phase transition criteria — what must be true to move to the next phase

What PROGRESS.md Does NOT Contain

  • Technical changelog → lives in CHANGELOG.md (structured, versioned)
  • Architecture decisions → live in ADRs or architecture-decisions.md
  • Inter-session context → lives in session-handoff.md or equivalent
  • Code review state → lives in review-state.md or inline pull requests
  • Implementation details → live in issue trackers, code comments, design docs

PROGRESS.md is executive summary only. It points to other documents rather than duplicating them.

Template Structure

Use this structure as a starting point. Customize sections based on project type (B2B SaaS, consumer app, marketplace, etc.):

# PROJECT_NAME — PROGRESS

## Current Phase
🔵 **Build** — ETA next phase: [DATE]

## Vision
**Problem:** [one-sentence problem statement]
**ICP:** [ideal customer profile]
**USP:** [unique value vs. alternatives]
**Revenue Model:** [how money flows]

## Milestones (Current Phase: Build)
- [✓ / ○] Milestone A — [target date]
- [✓ / ○] Milestone B — [target date]
- [✓ / ○] Milestone C — [target date]

## Key Metrics (Last Updated: [DATE])
| Metric | Value | Target | Status |
|--------|-------|--------|--------|
| [Metric A] | [current] | [goal] | [trend: ↑ / ↓ / → ] |
| [Metric B] | [current] | [goal] | [trend] |

## Blockers
🔴 **[Blocker Title]** — [description, impact]
🟡 **[Blocker Title]** — [description, impact]

## Next Phase Criteria
To transition to [Next Phase], these conditions must be met:
- Condition 1
- Condition 2
- Condition 3

## Session Updates
- **[DATE]** — [what changed; link to session handoff or PR if applicable]
- **[DATE]** — [what changed]

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.
