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

call-prep 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 2mo 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.

Purpose

Build a concise call brief from dated person, account, deal, task, and interaction evidence. Keep sourced context separate from suggested questions and unknowns.

Usage

  • /call-prep [person]
  • /call-prep [company]

Evidence, authority, and recovery

Set the call brief's as-of timestamp, timezone, participant, and call time. Make freshness relative to that as-of time. For each interaction, commitment, signal, account field, objective, and objection, record its source path or record ID and event date. File modified time is not an event date.

  • Treat an unknown objective and unknown objection as unknown. Write Unknown — ask; do not infer intent, buying stage, sentiment, priority, or likely objection from role, company, silence, or a generic sales pattern.
  • Separate sourced facts, the user's stated goals, hypotheses, and suggested questions. A useful question is not evidence that its premise is true.
  • Show contradictory sources and dates side by side. Do not silently choose one.
  • Never invent facts, quotes, commitments, dates, outcomes, customer counts, product capabilities, prices, ROI, payback, rollout time, or integration claims.
  • Keep call prep read-only by default. A recommendation is not permission to update a person, account, deal, or task.
  • Preview any requested change, require explicit confirmation from the authorized human, then read back the saved record. If a write or read-back fails, report possible partial state and stop before retrying.

Method

1. Resolve identity and call scope

Confirm the exact person/account and disambiguate duplicate names. Confirm:

  • scheduled call time and timezone;
  • participants and their sourced roles;
  • call type only if supplied or recorded;
  • the user's objective, if stated;
  • the review window for prior interactions;
  • authoritative sources for person, account, deal, and commitments.

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.
