newsletter-broadcast

newsletter-broadcast is a skill for Claude Code from jaredlangleycc/nightshift-os. It costs 102 tokens per session (3,298 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for writing and sending one-off email newsletters to a subscriber list, such as a weekly update. It is for broadcast emails, not automated sequences or personal messages.

In plain words
What is it for?
Drafting subjects, preheaders, greetings, personal introductions, and the main idea for a newsletter. It can also prepare a single broadcast for subscribers.
Why use it?
It gives each issue a consistent structure so the writer does not have to plan the format from scratch. It also keeps weekly broadcasts separate from automated email campaigns.

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

newsletter-broadcast 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 367 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Newsletter Broadcast

The single weekly broadcast send. Different from a sequence (no automation, no drip) and different from a transactional email. It's a content piece, delivered to the inbox, where the user shows up with one idea per week.

For solopreneurs, the newsletter is the owned channel. Social can disappear overnight. The list goes with the user.

When this skill triggers

  • "Draft this week's newsletter"
  • "Sunday newsletter"
  • "Send to the lead-gen assessment Leads"
  • "Broadcast to my list"
  • "Send the weekly"
  • "Newsletter from this week's essay"
  • "Weekly email"

NOT for: drip / automation sequences (use email-sequence), cold outreach (use cold-email), one-to-one client emails (use outreach-drafter or just write it).

The format spec

Each issue. Same shape. Different content. Repetition of structure is what trains the reader.

SUBJECT
5 to 9 words. State, don't sell. Sounds like a friend wrote it.

PREHEADER
5 to 12 words. Continues the subject.

GREETING
First name. No "Dear" or "Hi there".

PERSONAL FRAME
1 to 2 paragraphs. What the user is sitting with this week. Tied to a moment
from the last 7 days (a client call, a Saturday morning, a moment in the car
with a kid, a piece of news).

THE ESSAY (or main body)
500 to 600 words. The core idea this week. If this is the spine pattern,
the body is the blog essay pulled in.

ONE LINE BRIDGE
1 sentence. Lands the essay's takeaway.

SOFT CTA
One link. Specific. ("Take the lead-gen assessment" not "Learn more.")

SIGN-OFF
First name. No title.

P.S. (optional)
One specific line. Use sparingly.

Hard cap: 700 words total. Inbox is a glance, not a sit-down read.

Target: 500 words. Most weeks the user will write longer than they need to. Cut.

The Sunday spine pattern

The newsletter is the cap of the Sunday Spine Workflow (see content-strategy/references/repurposing-spine.md).

Sunday morning:

  1. Finalize the blog essay (written earlier in the week).
  2. Write the personal frame on top (10 to 20 minutes).
  3. Strip the essay to fit the 500 to 600 word newsletter window.
  4. Add the soft CTA.
  5. Send.

Changes

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.
