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

write-business-plan 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 6d 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.

Write Business Plan

Produce a structured business plan that communicates the opportunity, model, and execution path to investors or lenders.

Why This Is Best Practice

Adopted by: SBA-backed loan applicants, Y Combinator portfolio prep, MBA venture programs, traditional bank financing Impact: SBA data shows businesses with formal plans are 16% more likely to secure funding and 30% more likely to grow. Sahlman (HBR, 1997) demonstrated that investors screen on people, opportunity, context, and deal — a structured plan surfaces all four efficiently. Why best: A business plan forces founders to pressure-test assumptions before spending capital. The process of writing it surfaces gaps that internal conversations miss.

Steps

  1. Write the executive summary last — 1–2 pages covering: problem, solution, market size, business model, traction, team, and ask. Write last because it distills everything else. Investors often read only this.

  2. Define the problem and customer — describe the specific pain point, who suffers from it, and how they currently cope. Quantify the pain where possible (cost, time lost, frequency).

  3. Articulate the solution — explain what you build, how it solves the problem, and your key differentiator. Avoid feature lists — focus on the customer outcome.

  4. Size the market (TAM/SAM/SOM) — use a bottoms-up calculation to size the serviceable obtainable market. Avoid top-down percentage claims ("capturing 1% of a $100B market").

  5. Describe the business model — explain how you make money: pricing, revenue streams, customer acquisition mechanism, and unit economics (CAC, LTV, payback period).

  6. Analyze the competitive landscape — map 5–10 direct and indirect competitors. Build a 2×2 or feature matrix. Articulate your defensible differentiation and moat.

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.
