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

post-formatter 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 13d 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.

Post Formatter

CRITICAL: Auto-start on load

When this skill triggers, go straight to Step 1. Do not summarise. Start input gathering immediately.

Step 1. Gather inputs

Call AskUserQuestion:

[
  {
    "question": "What topic do you want to post about?",
    "header": "Topic",
    "multiSelect": false,
    "options": [
      {"label": "I will type the topic", "description": "Single sentence describing the subject"},
      {"label": "Paste a context dump", "description": "Notes, stats, transcripts to turn into a post"}
    ]
  },
  {
    "question": "Which framework?",
    "header": "Framework",
    "multiSelect": false,
    "options": [
      {"label": "PAS", "description": "Problem, Agitation, Solution"},
      {"label": "AIDA", "description": "Attention, Interest, Desire, Action"},
      {"label": "BAB", "description": "Before, After, Bridge"},
      {"label": "STAR", "description": "Situation, Task, Action, Result"},
      {"label": "SLAY", "description": "Story, Lesson, Actionable advice, You"},
      {"label": "Pick for me", "description": "Recommend the best framework based on the topic"}
    ]
  }
]

Ask one follow-up:

Anything else I should know? Facts, stats, tone notes, or who this is for.

Wait for response.

Step 2. Write the post

Apply these global rules to every output:

  • Maximum 20 lines, 200 to 250 words total (~1,200 characters)
  • Blank line after every line
  • Most lines: one sentence, 55 characters or fewer
  • Up to 4 lines may be mini-paragraphs (2 to 3 sentences, 110 characters or fewer)
  • Grade 6 words. Zero adverbs, zero jargon, zero fluff
  • No em dashes
  • No questions unless the hook itself is a question
  • No emojis except checkmarks for numbered lists (1. 2. 3.) and the recycle symbol in the CTA
  • Rule of Three: use at most two trios per post
  • Vary sentence starts. Do not over-use "I"

Step 3. Structure

  • Line 1 (Hook): Bold. 50 characters or fewer.
  • Line 2 (Twist / Contrast): 50 characters or fewer. Opposes or surprises the hook.
  • Lines 3 to 18 (Core): The chosen framework, split across 3 to 5 lines per stage. Any list inside a stage must have exactly three items (1. 2. 3.). Use arrows to show flow where useful.

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.
