strategy

strategy is a skill for Claude Code from bromso/metapowers. It costs 11 tokens per session (495 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A brand-strategy skill that turns discovery research into a brand's purpose, values, personality, positioning, and differences from competitors.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to define or document the strategic foundation of a brand after discovery work is complete.
Why use it?
It gives brand decisions a documented basis instead of relying on disconnected opinions.

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

strategy 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 5d 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.

What it actually says

Strategy

Define the brand strategy for "$ARGUMENTS". Synthesize discovery findings into a clear positioning, values, personality, and differentiation framework.

Prerequisites

Read .metapowers/branding/$ARGUMENTS/01-discover.md. If this file does not exist, tell the user:

Phase 1 (Discover) has not been completed for "$ARGUMENTS". Run /branding:discover $ARGUMENTS first, or use --skip-checks to bypass.

If --skip-checks is present in $ARGUMENTS, skip this check and log to .metapowers/branding/$ARGUMENTS/skip-log.md.

Process

  1. Read context files:

    • Read .metapowers/branding/$ARGUMENTS/01-discover.md for research findings
    • Read plugins/branding/shared/brand-platform-template.md for output structure
    • Read plugins/branding/shared/brand-prism-guide.md for the six brand facets
  2. Define brand purpose, vision, and mission:

    • Purpose: why does this brand exist?
    • Vision: where is the brand going?
    • Mission: what does it do, for whom, and how?
  3. Define brand values:

    • 3-5 core values that guide all brand decisions
    • For each value: description and how it manifests in behavior
  4. Craft positioning statement:

    • For [target audience] who [need], [brand] is the [category] that [benefit] because [reason]
  5. Define brand personality:

    • 3-5 personality traits (e.g., bold, approachable, expert, playful)
    • For each trait: how it influences communication
  6. Map competitive differentiation:

    • What sets this brand apart from each key competitor?
    • The unique value proposition
  7. Write the artifact to .metapowers/branding/$ARGUMENTS/02-strategy.md following the brand platform template.

Output

The brand strategy written to .metapowers/branding/$ARGUMENTS/02-strategy.md. Present a summary to the user highlighting:

  • The positioning statement
  • Core values
  • Key personality traits
  • Primary differentiator

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.
