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

copy-formulas 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 2mo 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.

Copy Formulas

Doctrine

Copywriting formulas are not templates to fill; they are conversion-ordered thinking. PAS works because naming a pain earns attention honestly. Before-After-Bridge works because people buy the after, not the product. The formula's job is to keep you from burying the promise under cleverness. Rule of placement: Meta primary text has one job (stop the scroll and earn the click), so pain-first formulas (PAS, SCQA, Before-After-Bridge) usually beat feature-first ones (FAB) for cold audiences. Story formulas (Star-Story-Solution, long storytelling) earn their length only in retargeting or founder-voice posts.

When to use

  • Drafting primary text for a new angle (feed it the angle's WHO, PAIN, PROMISE).
  • Diagnosing copy that gets glanced at but not clicked: it is usually a formula with a missing step.
  • Works with no MCP.

Run it

Write ad copy for this angle:
WHO: [from Angle Writer]  PAIN: [verbatim if possible]  PROMISE: [from Pain to Promise]
Placement: [Meta primary text (cold) / retargeting / landing page hero]
Voice: [3 adjectives + one verbatim brand phrase]

1. Pick the 2 best-fit formulas for this placement and say why in one line each. Choose from: PAS (pain, agitate, solve), AIDA, Before-After-Bridge, 4Ps (promise, picture, proof, push), SCQA (situation, complication, question, answer), Star-Story-Solution, PPPP (problem, promise, proof, proposal), straight storytelling.
2. Write one version per formula. Meta primary text: first line must work standalone (it is all most people see before "...more"), under 125 words total, no hashtags, one CTA.
3. Label each structural beat inline in a copy of the draft (so I can see the formula working).
4. PROOF beats use only real proof I gave you. If I gave none, write the version without a proof beat and tell me the copy is weaker until I supply it.
5. If I pasted EXISTING copy instead: name the formula it is closest to, the beat it is missing or burying, and rewrite it with the missing beat restored.

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.
