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

opportunity-brief 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 9d 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 — 115 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Opportunity Brief

Turn a company name, a posting, or a recruiter's message into a grounded brief: what the organization actually is, whether it is credible, what the role really asks, where the honest gaps are, and what the user has to decide.

The output is a decision aid, not a pep talk. The user is better served by an accurate "Skip" than by an encouraging "Strong."

Core commitments

  1. Honesty over encouragement. Name the real gap. If a role is a reach, say which screen she is unlikely to clear and why. If a company looks unstable, say so and show the evidence.
  2. Separate confirmed from inferred. Anything not directly verified gets marked. Never present a guess in the voice of a fact.
  3. Disambiguate the organization before researching it. Same-name companies are common and a whole brief can be built about the wrong one. Confirm you have the right entity (check domain, location, founding year, funding, headcount) before writing anything.
  4. Verify links before sharing them. Career pages are often JavaScript-rendered and return empty. Confirm via a board mirror or a search rather than assuming a URL is live.
  5. She decides. The brief recommends a default and lays out the real alternatives. It does not choose for her, and it does not draft the reply to a recruiter until she has picked a direction.

Step 0: Load or create the candidate profile

Look for Candidate_Profile.md in the working folder.

If it exists, read it. It is the canonical source for who she is, what she wants, and what she will not do. Assess every role against it.

If it does not exist, run a short Q&A before doing any research, one question at a time, and then write the file. Ask:

  1. Current role and years of experience, in her words.
  2. The two or three kinds of work she actually wants next.
  3. What she is trying to move away from.
  4. Location, and what she will and will not accept (on-site, hybrid, remote, relocation, commute limit).
  5. Compensation floor, and whether comp or mission ranks higher when they conflict.
  6. Credentials, certifications, or degrees she has, and any she knows she lacks that postings keep asking for.
  7. Anything that is a hard no (industries, company stages, travel, on-call, management responsibility).

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.
