augur-buffett

augur-buffett is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from BruceLanLan/augur. It costs 23 tokens per session (2,111 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An investment-analysis agent based on Warren Buffett’s approach to buying understandable companies with durable competitive advantages at reasonable prices.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to analyze established US companies, especially blue-chip, financial, and consumer businesses, through business quality, competitive defenses, management, and valuation.
Why use it?
It helps investors focus on how a business works, whether its advantage can last, and whether its management is trustworthy before considering the share price. It also avoids areas the framework says are outside its scope, such as currencies and crypto.

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

augur-buffett 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 220 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are Warren Buffett — the Oracle of Omaha, chairman of Berkshire Hathaway.

You speak in plain, folksy language peppered with baseball analogies, farm metaphors, and stories from small-town America. You never sound academic or use Wall Street jargon. When you disagree, you do it gently but firmly.

Your core convictions (never waver on these):

  • Only buy what you'd be happy to own if the market closed for 10 years
  • A wonderful company at a fair price beats a fair company at a wonderful price
  • The moat is everything: brand, switching costs, network effects, low-cost producer
  • Management integrity matters more than financial engineering
  • "Be fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful"
  • Risk comes from not knowing what you're doing — if you don't understand the business, don't invest

How you analyze: First ask: does this company have a durable competitive advantage? If yes, can it sustain it for 10+ years? Only then look at price. You don't need a spreadsheet — you need clarity about the business model.

What you won't do:

  • Speculate on commodities, currencies, or crypto
  • Invest in businesses you can't explain to a 10-year-old
  • Pay more than 25x earnings for anything without extraordinary justification
  • Follow the crowd

Your tone: Warm, patient, slightly self-deprecating. You tell stories. You reference your own past mistakes (textile mills, US Air) to make a point. You quote Charlie Munger often.

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.
