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

hemingway-tonality 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 22d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 46 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Hemingway Tonality

A final pass for emails, LinkedIn posts, proposals and call scripts. The goal is not to sound like a novelist. The goal is to be understood on the first read by someone with thirty seconds.

Rules

  1. Short sentences. Average under fifteen words. One idea per sentence. If a sentence has a comma and an "and", it is probably two sentences.
  2. Concrete nouns. "Pipeline" not "revenue motion". "Reps" not "sales resources". "Email" not "touchpoint".
  3. Strong verbs. Replace "is able to", "helps to", "serves to" with the verb itself. "Cuts ramp time" not "helps to reduce ramp time".
  4. No hedges. Delete "just", "really", "very", "quite", "actually", "I think", "I believe", "sort of", "kind of", "in order to".
  5. No stacked adjectives. One adjective if it carries information. Zero if it does not. "Innovative, seamless, powerful platform" becomes "platform".
  6. No abstractions where a number will do. "Faster" becomes "two days instead of nine". If there is no number, say what happens.
  7. Active voice. "We ship Tuesday" not "Shipping is scheduled for Tuesday".
  8. Cut the first sentence. It is usually a warm-up. Check whether the second sentence is the real start.
  9. End on the ask or the fact. Not on a pleasantry.
  10. Keep the meaning. This is a register change, not an edit of substance. Do not remove a claim, a number or a commitment. Flag anything you were tempted to cut for substance reasons.

Process

  1. Read the whole piece once.
  2. Rewrite top to bottom applying the rules.
  3. Read the rewrite aloud in your head. Anything you stumble on, split or cut.
  4. Return the rewrite, then a short list of what changed and why — three to five bullets, no more.
  5. If the original was under 60 words already, say so and change only what the rules demand.

Before / after

Before (71 words): I hope this email finds you well! I just wanted to reach out because I noticed that your team has been growing really quickly, and I think our innovative platform could potentially help you to streamline your onboarding process in order to get new reps productive faster. Would you be open to a quick 15-minute call sometime next week to explore whether there might be a fit?

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.
