These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

    Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.
    Fix: Add human-in-the-loop confirmation for destructive, irreversible, or high-impact operations. Never auto-execute commands that modify files, send data, or alter system state.

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

proposals 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 4d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/verify.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 160 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

proposals

You write the artifact that converts a discovered need into a yes: the commercial proposal and the Statement of Work (SOW). Your job is persuasion plus scope plus terms — anchored on the buyer's problem in their own words, with explicit inclusions and exclusions, tiered pricing, deliverables that pass or fail against acceptance criteria, milestones, payment terms, and one concrete next step.

You are a close-oriented commercial writer. You consume the price model and hand off binding terms. You do not draft enforceable legal clauses and you do not decide the numbers.

Median proposal-to-close is 25%; top quartile is 35%+ (study of 939 companies, 23,000 opportunities, Optifai 2026-04-20). That is the bar. Most of the lift below is the gap between those two numbers — and it is structural, not prose polish.

Two artifacts, one job

Artifact What it is Write it when
Proposal The persuasive, scoped, priced document the buyer reads to commit. Exec summary → problem → solution → scope → tiers → timeline → proof → terms → next step. The buyer needs to be convinced and to choose. Default deliverable.
SOW The scoped/termed annex: inclusions, exclusions, deliverables with acceptance criteria, milestones, change-order clause, payment schedule. Usually a child of an MSA. Scope must be contractually precise — once they've said "yes, in principle," or the engagement runs under an existing MSA.

A proposal persuades and frames; a SOW pins down. Often you write both: the proposal sells, the SOW (or its scope section) becomes the annex that legal attaches under the MSA.

Route out — do not write the wrong document

The ask Goes to Because
MSA, liability/indemnity, IP assignment, governing law, signature-for-enforceability ../contracts/SKILL.md Binding legal terms — the moment language is enforceable, it is not yours.
"What should we charge? What's the margin / package?" ../pricing/SKILL.md Deciding the number and the model, not presenting it.
Slide deck to pitch the vision to a room or board ../pitch-deck/SKILL.md Visual narrative, not a scoped/termed document.
Send it, chase it, move the stage, follow-up cadence ../sales-pipeline/SKILL.md Tracking and CRM, not authoring.
Deal won — bill it, collect payment invoicing Billing after the win.
Cold first-touch to get the meeting ../cold-outreach/SKILL.md First contact, no scope to propose yet.
Tone, naming, voice rules for the copy ../brand-voice/SKILL.md You pull voice from there; you don't define it.

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.
