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-business-proposal-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 3d 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.

Anti-patterns

Trap Reality Check
"Just list what we'll build" Proposals sell outcomes, not features. Lead with the problem you solve.
"One price, take it or leave it" Tiered pricing lets clients choose their budget level. Always offer 2-3 options.
"We'll figure out scope later" Vague scope creates disputes. Define deliverables AND exclusions explicitly.
"Terms can wait until contract" Payment schedule, revision limits, and IP ownership prevent 80% of freelance conflicts. Include them.
"The longer the better" Busy clients skim. Executive summary + pricing first. Details in appendix.

Protocol

Step 1: Gather Project Requirements

If the user hasn't provided project details, ask:

I need a few details for the proposal:

  1. Client name and company
  2. Project type (web app, mobile app, marketing site, API, etc.)
  3. Core problem — what does the client need solved?
  4. Rough scope — key features or deliverables
  5. Timeline — any deadlines or target launch date?
  6. Budget range — if known (helps calibrate tier pricing)

If the user provides partial info, ask only for what's missing. Don't ask for information you can infer.

Step 2: Write Executive Summary

The executive summary is what the client reads first (and sometimes only). It must:
