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

setup-initiative 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 — 98 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Setup Initiative

Fills the Frame phase of the coverage map. NOT a gatekeeper for starting work — jobs run without it (zero-setup principle); this skill earns its place before the first gate or whenever the PM asks about targets.

Purpose

Explicit alignment on goals, constraints, stakeholders, and success criteria. The coverage map (coverage.py) shows Frame N/4 until metric, baseline, target and kill criteria are recorded — gates are blocked while Frame is incomplete.

When to use

  • Before assembling a Gate presentation (gate preconditions require Frame)
  • When the PM asks about targets / success criteria
  • When /next recommends it (Frame gaps + a gate is near)
  • NEVER as a forced first step of a new initiative

Checklist

Guide the PM through these 10 areas. For each area, ask a focused question, then write the answer to CONTEXT.md.

1. Outcome

Ask: "What metric are we trying to improve, and by how much?"

  • Get: metric name, current baseline, target, measurement horizon
  • If PM doesn't know exact numbers: "Give your best estimate — we'll refine after step 1"
  • Required: at minimum the metric name and direction (up/down)

2. Stakeholders

Ask: "Who needs to approve this at Report presentation, and who might block it?"

  • Get: decision-maker, influencers, potential blockers
  • Map: name -> role -> concern/interest
  • If PM says "just me": note that, but ask about dev lead and designer

3. OKR Alignment

Ask: "Which company or team OKR does this serve?"

  • Get: specific OKR text or "exploratory / not tied to OKR"
  • If no OKR: flag as risk for report presentation ("needs strategic framing")

4. Constraints

Ask: "What can't we change, and what's our timeline?"

  • Get: timeline, budget, team capacity, tech limitations, political constraints
  • Distinguish hard constraints (deadline) from soft (preference)

5. Success Criteria

Ask: "If this initiative goes perfectly, what does the world look like in 3 months?"

  • Get: specific, measurable outcome
  • Push back on vague answers: "more users" -> "X% increase in Y metric"

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.
