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

business-writing-for-leaders 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 6d 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.

Business Writing for Leaders

DELETE KEY. The most powerful writing tool a leader possesses is subtraction. Every unnecessary word dilutes authority. Every jargon-laden sentence signals that the writer is performing competence rather than demonstrating it. Every buried lead -- the critical information hidden in paragraph three -- is a tax on the reader's time and goodwill. Yet leaders write more words each year, to more people, through more channels, with less editing and less consideration for the person on the receiving end. The average executive sends and receives over 120 emails per day. The ones that get read, understood, and acted upon share a common trait: their authors wrote for the reader, not for themselves.

Researchers and practitioners writing across a decade of HBR publications converge on a conclusion that should embarrass anyone who has ever used the phrase "synergistic value proposition" in an email: good business writing is simple, clear, human, and structured around what the reader needs to know, not what the writer wants to say.


The Framework

Leadership writing rests on four principles. They are deceptively simple. Executing all four simultaneously, under time pressure, with multiple audiences, is considerably harder than any writing guide admits.

Principle 1: Write for the Reader

The discipline begins with a shift in orientation. Before writing a sentence, answer three questions:

  • What does the reader need to know? Not what you want to tell them. What they need.
  • What questions will they have? Anticipate and address them in order of likely importance.
  • How much time will they give this? Assume less than you hope. Probably less than you think.

Respect for the reader's time is not a courtesy; it is a structural requirement. Put the most important information first. The reader who stops after the first paragraph should still have the essential message. The reader who continues should find supporting detail, not repetition.
