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

organizational-design 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 13d 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.

Organizational Design

Scope

Covers

  • Designing or redesigning an organization's structure + operating model to improve speed, accountability, and customer outcomes
  • Choosing between centralized vs decentralized models (Apple ↔ Amazon spectrum) and functional vs divisional/value-stream orientations
  • Reducing coordination tax by minimizing dependencies and clarifying decision rights
  • Setting management roles/layers so leaders know the work and can drive craft, not just process

When to use

  • "Propose a reorg / org design for my product + engineering organization."
  • "We're slow due to dependencies—redesign teams so we can run in parallel."
  • "Our UX is fragmented—should we centralize decisions or strengthen functional leadership?"
  • "We grew fast and added layers—help us simplify and get back to startup speed."

When NOT to use

  • You need product strategy/vision first (use defining-product-vision or working-backwards).
  • This is mainly a people-performance issue (use coaching/feedback workflows, not a reorg).
  • You need compensation bands, leveling, hiring plans, or legal/HR guidance (involve HR/legal).
  • You need a single high-stakes decision process (use running-decision-processes).
  • You need a full organizational transformation program with change management, pilots, and culture change (use organizational-transformation; this skill produces the structural blueprint that transformation executes).
  • You need to improve engineering practices, norms, or technical culture (use engineering-culture).
  • You need to build team culture (values, rituals, norms) within existing teams (use building-team-culture).
  • You need cross-team coordination processes without changing the org chart (use cross-functional-collaboration).

Inputs

Minimum required

  • Org context: company stage, domain, size, and which functions are in-scope (e.g., Product/Eng/Design/Data)
  • Current structure: teams, reporting lines (rough is fine), and how work is currently organized
  • Primary goals: what must improve (e.g., speed, quality, integrated UX, ownership, cost)
  • Key symptoms with examples (e.g., slow decisions, rework, unclear ownership, fragmented UX)
  • Constraints/non-negotiables (headcount, timeline, critical launches, regulatory/compliance, leadership preferences)

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.
