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-youtube-script 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 2d 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
"Start with an intro about who I am" Viewers don't care who you are until you've hooked them. Identity comes after value.
"Cover everything about the topic" YouTube rewards depth on one angle, not breadth across many. Pick one promise and deliver it fully.
"The content speaks for itself" Retention techniques (open loops, pattern breaks) keep viewers watching. Great content with poor pacing loses to good content with great pacing.
"I'll figure out the visuals during editing" Script the visuals alongside the words. B-roll and graphics are planned, not improvised.
"Thumbnails are just screenshots" The thumbnail is 50% of click-through rate. Design it before filming — it shapes the video's angle.

Protocol

Step 1: Gather Video Details

If the user hasn't provided details, ask:

I need a few details for the script:

  1. Topic — what's this video about?
  2. Target viewer — who is watching? (beginner dev, business owner, tech enthusiast, etc.)
  3. Video length goal — short (5-8 min), standard (10-15 min), long-form (20+ min)?
  4. CTA goal — what should viewers do? (subscribe, click a link, watch next video, buy)
  5. Channel context — is this part of a series? What's the channel about?
  6. Presentation style — talking head, screencast, voiceover with visuals, mixed?
