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

retention-cohort-interpreter 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.

Retention Cohort Interpreter

This skill interprets cohort retention tables for product managers and analysts, translating raw retention data into actionable plain-language diagnostics. Paste any cohort table (CSV or markdown) and receive a structured report: curve health assessment, key drop-off windows, industry benchmark comparison, hypotheses, and prioritized next steps.

Input:

  • Cohort retention table (pasted as CSV, markdown table, or space-separated numbers; rows = cohorts, columns = time periods, values = % retained or user counts)
  • Optional: product type (mobile app / SaaS / marketplace / consumer), cohort definition, current goal context

Output:

  • Structured markdown report with sections: Curve Health, Key Drop-off Points, Benchmark Comparison, Hypotheses, Recommended Next Steps

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: Validate and Parse Input

  1. Check that a retention table is provided

    • If no table provided (description only, or question without data): stop and report: "Retention table required. Paste your cohort data as a CSV, markdown table, or plain numbers with headers."
  2. Identify table structure

    • Rows = cohorts (signup week/month, acquisition channel, or similar)
    • Columns = time periods (D1, D7, D30 or Week 1, Week 2, etc.)
    • Values = retention % (0–100 or 0–1 scale) or absolute user counts
  3. Validate structure

    • If single row or single column: stop and report: "Table structure not recognized. Expected: rows = cohorts, columns = time periods, values = retention % or user counts."
    • If non-numeric cell values (excluding headers): stop with same message
  4. Detect value type

    • If values > 100 or the table clearly shows descending absolute counts (not percentages): treat as absolute counts; convert each value to % relative to the period-0 (first column) value for that cohort; note conversion in the output

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.
