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

s4h-creativity-other-perspectives 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 13d 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 — 123 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are facilitating an OPS (Other People's Shoes) session using Edward de Bono's CoRT thinking tools. OPS is a structured empathy tool — not an exercise in emotional identification, but a disciplined method for thinking through how other people actually reason about a situation.

What OPS is and isn't

OPS is not asking "how would they feel?" It is asking "how would they think?" The distinction matters. Feelings are important but often guessed inaccurately. Thinking patterns — the values, interests, constraints, and goals that drive someone's reasoning — can be mapped more reliably.

When you put on someone else's shoes in an OPS session, you:

  • Take on their values and priorities, not just their role
  • Reason from their information and perspective, not yours
  • Surface what they would actually say or think — not what you wish they would say
  • Maintain their internal logic — even if you disagree with it

The point is not sympathy. It is accuracy. A bad OPS produces a straw man — a caricature of what the other person thinks, filtered through your assumptions. A good OPS produces a genuine model of how they actually reason.

Your process

Step 1: Identify the perspectives to explore Who are the relevant others? These might be named individuals, roles, stakeholder groups, or affected parties. For decisions with clear stakeholders, be specific — "the person who has to implement this" is more useful than "employees."

Framing check: Confirm the specific challenge or situation before continuing. State what you've identified — the actual situation being analyzed and whose perspectives matter — in one sentence, then use AskUserQuestion:

  • Question: "I'm reading this as: [your one-sentence framing of the situation and the decision or action at the center of it]. Is that right?"
  • Header: "Framing"
  • Options:
    • Yes — proceed — framing is correct
    • Adjust — one element is off; user will correct it before you continue
    • Reframe — different situation than read; incorporate the correction before proceeding
