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

memstack-content-newsletter 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 yesterday.

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.

Activation

When this skill activates, output:

Newsletter: Writing email newsletter edition...

Then execute the protocol below.

User says "newsletter", "email newsletter", "weekly digest" ACTIVE

Common Mistakes

Mistake Why It's Wrong
"Newsletter = company updates" Nobody cares about your company news. Deliver value: insights, tips, curated content.
"Generic subject line" "[Company] Monthly Newsletter" gets 10% opens. Curiosity-driven subjects get 35%+.
"No consistent format" Readers want predictable value. A consistent structure builds habit and trust.
"Too many links" More than 3-5 links per section dilutes clicks. Feature one primary link prominently.
"No growth strategy" "Build it and they will come" doesn't work. Actively promote every issue.

Protocol

Step 1: Gather Newsletter Requirements

If the user hasn't provided details, ask:

  1. Topic/niche: what's the newsletter about?
  2. Audience: who reads it? (role, industry, experience level)
  3. Frequency: weekly, biweekly, or monthly?
  4. Type: curated links, original essays, tips, industry news, or mixed?
  5. Current state: new or existing? (subscriber count, open rates)
  6. Monetization: free, paid, or sponsored?

Step 2: Write the Subject Line

Subject line formulas:

Formula Template Example
Curiosity gap [Topic]: The [thing] nobody talks about "Pricing: The metric nobody tracks"
Numbered value [X] [things] to [outcome] this week "5 tools to ship faster this week"
Question Why [common practice] [doesn't work / is wrong]? "Why your landing page isn't converting?"
Personal I [did thing], here's what happened "I quit meetings for a month"
Direct value How to [outcome] (in [constraint]) "How to write copy that converts (in 20 min)"
Current event [Event/trend]: What it means for [audience] "GPT-5: What it means for developers"

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.
