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

career-transitions 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 12d 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.

Career Transitions

Help the user navigate career changes using frameworks from 76 product leaders who have successfully pivoted roles, industries, and career stages.

How to Help

When the user asks for help with a career transition:

  1. Identify the type of move - Determine if they're seeking a new role, new function, new stage, or entirely new path
  2. Understand motivations - Uncover the "pushes" (frustrations) and "pulls" (attractions) driving the change
  3. Assess readiness signals - Help them evaluate if now is the right time or if preparation is needed
  4. Design experiments - Suggest low-risk ways to test hypotheses before committing fully

Core Principles

Progress matters more than pay

Bob Moesta: "Over 50% of the people who got new jobs didn't get more money. It's a lie. It's about progress. It's about what do they want to learn? What skills do they want to get?" Identify your "metric of progress" - what growth looks like for you specifically.

Use the Genie Framework

Graham Weaver: "What if you had one wish... whatever you throw yourself into, it's going to turn out great." Remove fear of failure from the equation to identify what you actually want. Work backwards from a successful 10-year outcome.

Build serendipity through relationships

Gokul Rajaram: "Great careers are built by knowing a lot of people doing great work so they know and want you on their teams, and just waiting for serendipity and then seizing it." Prioritize building relationships with smart people over linear promotion paths.

Follow intuition over spreadsheets

Ami Vora: "The thing that has consistently served me is to do the thing that feels right, go to the place that feels like home, work with the people who feel like my friends." Choose roles where you feel "lucky" to be there.

Three months is attainable

Paul Millerd: "A three month sabbatical is much more attainable than people think... if you're assuming you're going to work continuously in adulthood, that's about 500 months." Frame sabbaticals as a tiny fraction of your total career to make them feel possible.

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.
