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

popup-cro 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 3d 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 — 56 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Design effective popups and modals for "$ARGUMENTS". Create non-intrusive, high-converting overlays for lead capture, upgrades, and engagement.

Arguments. $ARGUMENTS may contain the project name and optional flags. Take the first token as <project> and treat --skip-checks as a flag; never include flags in file paths. All paths below use <project>. If --skip-checks is present, skip the prerequisite check and, before writing any artifact, append one line to .metapowers/marketing/<project>/skip-log.md: - <ISO timestamp> — <skill name> skipped prerequisite check for <artifact file> — reason: <reason or "none given">.

Prerequisites

Read .metapowers/marketing/<project>/00-strategy.md. If this file does not exist, tell the user:

Phase 0 (Strategy) has not been completed for "". Run /marketing:customer-research <project> first, or use --skip-checks to bypass.

Process

  1. Read context:

    • Read .metapowers/marketing/<project>/00-strategy.md for audience and messaging
    • Read .metapowers/marketing/<project>/02-act.md and .metapowers/marketing/<project>/04-engage.md if they exist
  2. Define popup purpose:

    • Lead capture (email signup, lead magnet delivery)
    • Exit intent (save abandoning visitors)
    • Upgrade prompt (free-to-paid conversion)
    • Announcement (new feature, promotion)
    • Feedback collection (survey, NPS)
  3. Design popup experience:

    • Trigger: time-based, scroll-based, exit-intent, click-triggered, page-count
    • Frequency: how often does a user see it?
    • Targeting: which pages, which segments, new vs. returning
    • Mobile experience: slide-up vs. full-screen vs. banner
    • Dismiss behavior: easy close, remember preference
  4. Create popup content:

    • Headline (benefit-focused, under 10 words)
    • Body copy (1-2 sentences max)
    • CTA (specific action, not "Submit")
    • Visual direction
    • A/B test variants
  5. Write the artifact — append to .metapowers/marketing/<project>/04-engage.md under a ## Popup CRO section. Create the file with a # Engage — <project> heading if it does not exist; if a ## Popup CRO section already exists, replace only that section. The section contains:

    • Popup Strategy — purpose, trigger, targeting
    • Content — headline, body, CTA per popup
    • UX Rules — frequency, dismissal, mobile behavior
    • A/B Test Plan — what to test first
    • Anti-Annoyance Checklist — ensuring popups help, not hurt
