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

ads-plan 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 6d 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.

Strategic Paid Advertising Plan

Process

1. Discovery

  • Business type, products/services, target audience
  • Current advertising status (active platforms, spend, performance)
  • Goals: brand awareness, lead generation, e-commerce sales, app installs
  • Budget range (monthly/quarterly)
  • Timeline and urgency
  • In-house team capacity vs agency needs

2. Competitive Analysis

  • Identify top 3-5 competitors
  • Analyze their ad presence across platforms (Google Ads Transparency, Meta Ad Library)
  • Estimate competitor spend levels and platform mix
  • Identify messaging themes and creative approaches
  • Note keyword/audience gaps (opportunities competitors are missing)

3. Platform Selection

  • Load industry template from assets/ directory
  • Match business type to recommended platform mix
  • Read ads-shared/references/budget-allocation.md for platform selection matrix
  • Read ads-shared/references/conversion-tracking.md for tracking setup requirements
  • Assess platform fit based on:
    • Target audience demographics per platform
    • Product/service type suitability
    • Budget requirements per platform (minimums)
    • Sales cycle length and attribution needs
    • Creative capabilities and content availability

4. Campaign Architecture

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.
