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

long-term-compounding 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 8d 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.

长期复利游戏

R — 原文 (Reading)

玩复利游戏。无论是财富,人际关系或是知识,所有你人生里获得的回报,都来自于复利。……我的联合创始人Nivi说,“在一个长期游戏里,好像每个人都在让彼此发财,而在一个短期游戏里,好像每个人都在让自己发财。”

— 纳瓦尔·拉维坎特, 《纳瓦尔宝典》 第一章·财富

I — 方法论骨架 (Interpretation)

把复利从金融概念升级为通用人生规律:财富、知识、声誉、关系都以指数方式积累, 所以选择的判据不是「现在能拿多少」,而是「这件事在十年尺度上是否复利」。 两个推论:① 只与「能想象共事一辈子」的长期伙伴合作——信任让谈判成本趋近于零; ② 只玩长期正和游戏——长期游戏里人人把饼做大,短期游戏里人人抢饼。 声誉是最典型的复利资产:持续几十年维护诚信,最终价值远超有才华但无声誉积累的人。 反面筛选信号:愤世嫉俗者、悲观主义者、短期思维者——他们会破坏复利结构。

A1 — 书中的应用 (Past Application)

案例 1: 与 Elad Gil 的交易

  • 问题: 商业谈判成本高、信任难建立
  • 方法论的使用: 与 Elad Gil 长期交易,对方主动多给好处、差额自掏腰包
  • 结论: 信任让常规谈判极简,彼此愿意让利
  • 结果: 作者几乎每笔交易都优先拉对方入局,关系进入复利循环

案例 2: 声誉换来别人做不了的交易

  • 问题: 为什么巴菲特能买到别人买不到的公司
  • 方法论的使用: 长期诚信+可靠+长期思维建立的声誉品牌
  • 结论: 「你的性格和你的声誉是可以建立的……你知道这不是运气」
  • 结果: 别人把「运气」当机会时,声誉者把机会变成确定收益

A2 — 触发场景 (Future Trigger) ★

用户会在什么情境下需要这个 skill?

  1. 评估合作/合伙/签约对象:「这个人能合作五年十年吗」
  2. 犹豫是否接受短期高回报交易:「这单来钱快但伤口碑」
  3. 想积累声誉/复利资产:「怎么让机会主动来找我」
  4. 关系决策:「这段关系值得长期投入吗」

语言信号

  • "长期 vs 短期怎么选"
  • "这个人靠谱吗/值得长期合作吗"
  • "怎么建立信任/声誉"
  • "compounding / long-term game / is this person trustworthy"

与相邻 skill 的区分

  • game-selection 的区别: 本 skill 关注时间尺度(长期/短期);game-selection 关注博弈结构(零和/正和/单人)
  • peer-selection 的区别: 本 skill 的伙伴筛选服务于复利收益;peer-selection 服务于幸福与行为塑造

E — 可执行步骤 (Execution)

  1. 对候选机会跑复利测试

    • 完成标准: 回答「十年后它还值多少?现在投入的信任/时间/钱会不会指数增长?」
    • 判停条件: 若答案是「不可复利且只是快钱」,标记为短期游戏,慎重
  2. 对合作者跑『一辈子』测试

    • 完成标准: 问「我能想象和这个人共事/生活一辈子吗?」;不能,则一天也别开始
  3. 检查负向信号

    • 完成标准: 确认对方不是愤世嫉俗者/悲观主义者/短期思维者(他们要证明自己负面看法正确)
  4. 为声誉做一笔复利存款

    • 完成标准: 本周期内做一件「对方会记得的好事」,不记账、不估量

B — 边界 (Boundary) ★

不要在以下情况使用此 skill

  • 对方已在诈骗/违法边缘(先止损,不要用长期主义自我麻痹)
  • 用户急需短期现金流救急(先解决生存,再谈复利)

作者在书中警告的失败模式

  • 与愤世嫉俗者合作: 「他们会任由坏事发生,以证明他们负面看法是正确的」
  • 估量付出: 「不要去估量——一旦开始计较,你的耐性就会耗尽」

作者的盲点 / 时代局限

  • 长期游戏假设环境稳定可预期;在剧变行业/强监管环境,长期承诺也有风险
  • 「所有好处都来自复利」是强断言,未考虑不可复利的必要止损

容易混淆的邻近方法论

  • game-selection: 先识别博弈结构,再决定玩长期还是短期
