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

running-effective-1-1s 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 9d 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.

Running Effective 1:1s

Scope

Covers

  • Designing a lightweight 1:1 operating system (purpose, cadence, meeting types, shared docs)
  • Running 1:1s as coaching conversations (not just status updates)
  • Holding career development conversations (life story → future dreams → action plan)
  • Doing basic wellbeing/recovery check-ins (joy/energy) without crossing into therapy/medical advice
  • Running skip-levels and special sessions (e.g., post-crisis “make them feel heard” 1:1s)

When to use

  • “My 1:1s are turning into status updates—help me redesign them.”
  • “Create a 1:1 agenda + shared doc template for me and my direct reports.”
  • “I’m a new manager—set up my 1:1 cadence and question bank.”
  • “Help me run better career conversations in 1:1s.”
  • “Plan a skip-level program and templates.”

When NOT to use

  • You need HR/legal guidance, an investigation, or a performance improvement plan (involve HR/legal; use your company process)
  • You need a project status meeting cadence (use team/ops rituals; 1:1s should not be the primary status channel)
  • The situation involves immediate safety/mental health crisis (seek professional help and follow company policy)
  • You want to develop a PM's product skills through structured coaching (use coaching-pms)
  • You need to design team-wide meetings, standups, or group rituals (use running-effective-meetings)
  • You want to delegate work effectively and track outcomes (use delegating-work)
  • You want to manage your relationship upward with your own boss (use managing-up)

Inputs

Minimum required

  • Your role and context (manager level, org type, function, time zones)
  • Who the 1:1s are for (directs, skip-levels) and relationship stage (new, stable, strained)
  • Current 1:1 cadence and what’s not working (2–5 concrete examples)
  • What you want to change (coaching, feedback, career growth, wellbeing, alignment, retention)
  • Constraints: meeting load, confidentiality/PII rules, any HR policies, time box/deadline

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.
