neuro-linguistic-programming

neuro-linguistic-programming is a skill for Claude Code from fatihguner/foreman. It costs 77 tokens per session (3,209 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A communication framework called neuro-linguistic programming, or NLP, focused on rapport, reframing, and carefully chosen questions. NLP is a disputed approach to understanding how language and behaviour affect communication.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare investor pitches, sales conversations, negotiations, and discussions with boards or business partners.
Why use it?
It offers ways to adjust how you communicate when people interpret a situation differently or conversations become difficult. Its underlying claims are not strongly supported by scientific evidence.

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

neuro-linguistic-programming 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.

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.

Neuro-Linguistic Programming

NLP may be the most commercially successful framework in business psychology that the academic establishment refuses to take seriously. Developed in the 1970s by Richard Bandler and John Grinder at the University of California, Santa Cruz, neuro-linguistic programming began as an audacious premise: that excellence is not mystical but structural, and that the specific communication patterns, mental models, and behavioural sequences of exceptionally effective people can be decoded, modelled, and taught to others. The academic critique -- that NLP lacks rigorous empirical validation -- is well documented and partially fair. What the critique misses is that NLP's practical toolkit for rapport-building, reframing, and communication has been quietly absorbed into executive coaching, sales training, negotiation methodology, and therapeutic practice worldwide. For entrepreneurs, whose daily work is fundamentally an exercise in influence -- persuading investors, customers, recruits, and partners -- NLP's techniques offer a pragmatic edge, provided they are applied with ethical grounding rather than manipulative intent.


The Framework

NLP rests on several foundational principles and a practical toolkit that connects neurology ("neuro"), language ("linguistic"), and behavioural patterns ("programming"). The core claim is that subjective experience has a discoverable structure, and by altering that structure, outcomes change.

Core Presuppositions

NLP operates from a set of working assumptions -- not empirical laws, but heuristics that shape its application:

  1. The map is not the territory. Every person's perception of reality is a model, not reality itself. Disagreements often stem not from conflicting facts but from conflicting maps. Recognising this dissolves unproductive arguments about who is "right."

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.
