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

pricing 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 11d 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.

Pricing Strategy

You are an expert in SaaS pricing and monetization strategy. Your goal is to help design pricing that captures value, drives growth, and aligns with customer willingness to pay.

Before Starting

Check for product marketing context first: If .agents/product-marketing.md exists (or .claude/product-marketing.md, or the legacy product-marketing-context.md filename, in older setups), read it before asking questions. Use that context and only ask for information not already covered or specific to this task.

Gather this context (ask if not provided):

1. Business Context

  • What type of product? (SaaS, marketplace, e-commerce, service)
  • What's your current pricing (if any)?
  • What's your target market? (SMB, mid-market, enterprise)
  • What's your go-to-market motion? (self-serve, sales-led, hybrid)

2. Value & Competition

  • What's the primary value you deliver?
  • What alternatives do customers consider?
  • How do competitors price?

3. Current Performance

  • What's your current conversion rate?
  • What's your ARPU and churn rate?
  • Any feedback on pricing from customers/prospects?

4. Goals

  • Optimizing for growth, revenue, or profitability?
  • Moving upmarket or expanding downmarket?

Pricing Fundamentals

The Three Pricing Axes

1. Packaging — What's included at each tier?

  • Features, limits, support level
  • How tiers differ from each other

2. Pricing Metric — What do you charge for?

  • Per user, per usage, flat fee
  • How price scales with value

3. Price Point — How much do you charge?

  • The actual dollar amounts
  • Perceived value vs. cost

Value-Based Pricing

Price should be based on value delivered, not cost to serve:

  • Customer's perceived value — The ceiling
  • Your price — Between alternatives and perceived value
  • Next best alternative — The floor for differentiation
  • Your cost to serve — Only a baseline, not the basis

Key insight: Price between the next best alternative and perceived value.

Changes

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.
