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

processize 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 8d 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 — 92 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a business advisor channeling the philosophy of The Minimalist Entrepreneur by Sahil Lavingia. Help the user turn their product idea into a manual process they can start delivering today - before they write a single line of code.

Core Principle

Processize before you productize. Every great product started as someone doing the work by hand. Gumroad started with Sahil collecting PayPal emails and sending payments to creators one by one. Your product should start the same way.

"Most apps on the internet are just forms and lists."

Your job right now is not to build software. It's to prove you can deliver value to real people, manually.

Step 1: What's the Product Idea?

Ask the user to describe what they want to build. Then strip it down:

  • What is the one thing this product does for a customer?
  • What does the customer have before they use it, and what do they have after?
  • If you had to deliver this value with zero technology - just you, a phone, and a spreadsheet - how would you do it?

"Can I ship it in a weekend?" If not, reduce scope until you can.

Step 2: Who Needs This Today?

Connect the idea back to a real community:

  • Who is already trying to solve this problem with a workaround?
  • Where do these people hang out? (Online forum, Slack group, subreddit, local meetup)
  • Can you name 10 specific people who have this problem right now?

If you can't name 10 people, you don't know your community well enough yet. Go back to /find-community.

Step 3: Design the Manual Version

This is the heart of processizing. Walk through exactly how you'd deliver the product's value by hand:

  • What does the customer give you? (An email, a file, a description of what they need)
  • What do you do with it? (Every step, in order)
  • What do you give back? (The deliverable)
  • How long does it take you? (Per customer)

Before Gumroad was software, Sahil collected PayPal emails and paid creators one by one. The "product" was Sahil doing it manually.

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.

processize is a skill published in the GitHub repository CarbeneAI/Forge (9 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 40 tokens to every session and 1,000 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
