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

common-business-requirements 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 12d 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 Requirements Expert

Priority: P0 (CRITICAL)

Frame the business "Why" before product or technical specs.

1. Discovery Workflow

  • Draft executive summary: purpose, outcome, sponsor, validation owner.
  • For vague "implement X" requests, draft BRD-lite first from supplied evidence; ask at most 3 consequential blocking questions with recommended defaults per common-decision-discipline. Never re-ask settled decisions.
  • Confirm business objective and success metric.
  • Identify sponsor, decision-maker, and impacted stakeholders.
  • Capture AS-IS process pain and TO-BE target state.
  • Define scope boundary, exclusions, assumptions, and constraints. Carry confirmed evidence and explicit non-critical assumptions; blocking unknowns name affected slice, consequence, owner, and required input—no unowned TBD at handoff.
  • Record value hypothesis: cost, revenue, risk, compliance, or cycle-time impact.
  • Handoff Quality: Identify the Handoff Owner (BA Lead) and the next accountable team member (Product Manager).
  • Add glossary terms when stakeholder or domain language can be misread.
  • Add Mermaid AS-IS/TO-BE process diagram when workflow complexity affects approval.

2. BRD-lite Drafting

  • Load references/brd-template.md.
  • Keep each objective SMART: specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound.
  • Link each BRD objective to a candidate PRD requirement placeholder (REQ-*).
  • Offshore Ready: Include stakeholder validation plan and acceptance window for remote delivery teams.
  • Add outcome report seed: feature_status, requirement_trace, completed/missing evidence, decision needed, and recommended next workflow (plan-feature).
  • Write to docs/brd/brd-[slug].md.

3. Quality Gate

  • Every objective has an owner and KPI target.
  • Every in-scope item has a rationale and out-of-scope pair.
  • Risk register includes mitigation owner.
  • Stakeholder approvals and unresolved decisions are explicit; consequential unknowns block only affected slices.
  • Functional behavior is routed to PRD/SRS, not buried in BRD.
  • Sufficiently specified low-risk ticket maintenance may proceed with an in-chat contract without mandatory BRD document detours, provided it carries an accountable owner, approved scope fence, value rationale, and verification target.

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.
