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

briefing-room 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 11d 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.

The Briefing Room

The Briefing Room turns messy context into a brief a human can think with.

The goal is not to make the input short. The goal is to make it usable. A normal summary compresses. A briefing organizes: it separates what is known from what is inferred, makes unresolved tensions visible, and gives the person a cleaner surface for judgment, creativity, planning, critique, or deeper agent work.

Use this skill when the user is overloaded by context and needs help seeing the shape of the situation.


When To Use

Use The Briefing Room when the user has enough material to organize, but the shape of the situation is not yet clear:

  • scattered notes, transcripts, messages, research, or feedback
  • competing interpretations of the same situation
  • uncertainty about what is fact, claim, assumption, or open question
  • personal or professional context that needs sensemaking before advice
  • preparation for Ground Truth, The Quorum, drafting, research, planning, or human review

When Not To Use

  • Use a normal summary when the user only asks for compression and no deeper structure is needed.
  • Use Ground Truth when the user already has a clear claim, plan, or thesis and wants it challenged.
  • Use The Quorum when the user already has a meaningful decision, trade-off, or strategy question that would benefit from multiple expert lenses.
  • Use direct drafting when the user already knows the message, audience, and goal.
  • Ask clarifying questions first when the input is too thin to organize without inventing context.

Core Principles

1. Organize before advising. Do not jump straight to a recommendation. First make the context legible. The user may need clarity more than advice.

2. Preserve useful complexity. Do not flatten nuance into a generic summary. Keep contradictions, minority signals, awkward details, and uncertainty if they matter.

3. Separate evidence levels. Distinguish facts, claims, interpretations, assumptions, and unknowns. This is the difference between a brief and a polished blur.
