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

press-release-writer 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.

Origin

This is a copy

94% identical to press-release — 1 line differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 89 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.


name: press-release description: "Write a professional press release for any announcement. Use when asked to write a press release, media announcement, news release, or press statement. Produces a structured press release with headline, dateline, body, boilerplate, and media contact — ready to send to journalists."

Press Release Skill

Writes press releases that journalists actually read — structured around the news angle, not the desire to promote.

Required Inputs

  • The news (what is actually happening — be specific)
  • Company name
  • Date of announcement / embargo date
  • Key quote (from which executive and approximately what they want to say)
  • Why this matters (to the reader, not the company)
  • Target media (trade / national / local / consumer / investor)
  • Media contact details

Output Structure


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE / EMBARGOED UNTIL: [Date and time]


[Headline — active verb, specific news, under 10 words]

[Subheadline — the so-what in one sentence, adds context not repetition]

[City, Date] — [Opening paragraph: Who, What, When, Where, Why in 2-3 sentences. A journalist should be able to run this paragraph alone. No background, no context, no company history.]

[Second paragraph: the significance. Why does this matter? What does it mean for customers or the industry?]

[Third paragraph: quote from executive. Human and specific. Not a restatement of the headline.]

"[Quote text — specific, adds something the facts do not say]," said [Name], [Title] at [Company]. "[Second sentence extending the thought]."

[Fourth paragraph: supporting detail — data, customer names with permission, additional context]

[Fifth paragraph optional: what happens next, when it goes live, what people can do]


ENDS


Notes to editors:

About [Company] [Boilerplate: 3-4 sentences. What the company does, when founded, where based, key facts. Factual not promotional.]

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.
