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

research-to-content-brief 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 158 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Research to Content Brief

This skill reads a folder of raw research notes (audience observations, competitor signals, trend snippets) and synthesizes them into a structured content brief. Unlike dialogue-based brief generators, it extracts insights directly from your files — no interview needed.

Input:

  • Folder path containing .md and/or .txt research files, OR direct paste of research notes with type labels
  • Optional: target content format hint (blog post, landing page, social, email)

Output:

  • content-brief.md — structured markdown brief with six sections: Audience, Core Message, Content Angles, Competitive Differentiation, Trend Hooks, Recommended Formats

Language Detection

Detect the user's language from their message:

  • If Russian (or contains Cyrillic): respond in Russian
  • If English (or other Latin-script language): respond in English
  • If ambiguous: respond in the language of the trigger phrase used

Instructions

Step 1: Read and Categorize Research Files

  1. Read all .md and .txt files from the provided folder path (or accept pasted content)

    • If no files found and no content pasted: stop immediately. Report: "No research files found. Provide a folder path with .md or .txt files, or paste research notes directly."
    • If files exist but contain no readable text (images, binary, placeholder text): Report: "Files found but contain no extractable research content. Ensure files are .md or .txt with actual text."
  2. Categorize each file into one of four types:

    • Audience notes — pain points, goals, jobs-to-be-done, user profiles, quotes
    • Competitor signals — what competitors do/say, feature lists, positioning language
    • Trend snippets — industry trends, emerging topics, market shifts, date-stamped observations
    • Other — anything that doesn't fit the above (include in extraction as context)
  3. If files lack explicit category labels, auto-categorize by keyword heuristics:

    • Competitor names, brand names, "they offer", "pricing", "compared to" → competitor signals
    • "pain", "problem", "frustrated", "goal", "wants to", "needs to", "job" → audience notes
    • "trend", "growing", "2025", "2026", "new", "emerging", "market shift" → trend snippets
    • Note classification rationale in the output source coverage section

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.
