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

user-story-writer 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.

User Story Writer Skill

This skill produces production-ready user stories from a feature brief, PRD section, or verbal description. Each story follows the standard format with a clear who/what/why, behavioural acceptance criteria in Given/When/Then format, edge cases, and definition of done. Output is ready to paste into Jira, Linear, or your planning tool.

Required Inputs

Ask the user for these if not provided:

  • Feature or change to break into stories — paste the brief, PRD section, or describe the feature
  • User types / personas involved (e.g. admin, end user, guest, API consumer)
  • Scope — are we writing one story or decomposing an epic into a full set of stories?
  • Acceptance criteria format preference — Given/When/Then, bullet checklist, or both?
  • Technical constraints or notes — anything the engineering team has flagged that should shape the stories

Output Structure

For each story:


Story: [Short title — verb + noun, e.g. "Filter search results by date range"]

Epic: [Parent epic name — e.g. "Advanced Search"] Story ID: [Jira/Linear ID — leave blank if not yet created] Priority: [P1 / P2 / P3] Story points: [Leave blank — for engineering to estimate]


User Story

As a [specific user type — not "user"], I want to [concrete action they want to take], So that [the outcome they achieve — business value, not feature description].

Example:

As an account manager, I want to filter my client list by last contact date, so that I can quickly identify clients I haven't spoken to in over 30 days and prioritise outreach.


Context

[1–3 sentences of context that aren't in the user story itself: when does this story matter, what triggers the need, how does it fit into a larger flow. This helps engineers understand why before they ask.]


Acceptance Criteria

Format: Given / When / Then

Each criterion tests one specific behaviour. Write one GWT per observable outcome — not one GWT for the whole feature.

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.
