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

partnership-architecture 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 11d 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.

Partnership Architecture

Build and scale partner ecosystems that drive revenue and platform adoption. These aren't theory — they're patterns from building partner programs that drove 8-figure ARR and observing partnerships with real economic commitment.

When to Use

Triggers:

  • "How do I structure a partner program?"
  • "Should we build this or partner for it?"
  • "Partner-led vs direct sales motion"
  • "Ecosystem strategy"
  • "How to recruit and tier partners"
  • "Co-marketing with partners"
  • "When does a partnership actually matter?"

Context:

  • Building partnership program from scratch (0→1)
  • Scaling existing program (1→100)
  • Evaluating build vs partner decisions
  • Structuring partner deals and economics
  • Planning partner GTM motions

Core Frameworks

1. Real Partnerships Require Skin in the Game

The Pattern:

Most "partnerships" are co-marketing theater. Joint webinars, logo swaps, press releases. No economic commitment. No real skin in the game.

Real partnerships look different:

  • Economic commitment (spend, revenue share, co-investment)
  • Product roadmap alignment (features built for the partnership)
  • Executive sponsorship (leadership engaged quarterly)
  • Mutual risk (both sides can fail if it doesn't work)

How to Tell the Difference:

Ask: "If this partnership fails, what does each side lose?"

If the answer is "nothing" — it's not a partnership. It's a handshake.

The best partnerships I've seen involved uncomfortable commitments on both sides. Multi-year cloud spend commitments. Dedicated engineering teams. Revenue guarantees. The discomfort is the point — it forces both sides to make the partnership work.

Framework: Three-Sided Value Proposition

Every successful partnership creates clear value for three parties:

Your Company:

  • Distribution (access to partner's customers)
  • Credibility (association with known brand)
  • Revenue (direct or influenced)
  • Product leverage (capability you don't build)

The Partner:

  • Revenue or margin improvement
  • Customer retention/stickiness
  • Competitive differentiation
  • Reduced support burden
