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

signal-scan 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 134 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Signal scan

Answer "what happened with {topic} in the last N days?" for any person, company, product, technology, or market term. The brief is ranked by what people actually engaged with — upvotes, likes, views, GitHub stars, prediction-market odds — not by SEO. Knowledge type: temporal-signal-brief (per .claude/rules/ontology.md); maturity: emergent (each run is fresh, time-bound — briefs are not locked).

Stolen MCP-native from mvanhorn/last30days-skill (MIT). The method is the steal — entity-resolution-before-search, peer expansion, story clustering, engagement ranking. The 1,036-line Python engine is not: every surface maps to an MCP we already run (Exa, Firecrawl, GitHub, youtube-transcript, Apify). Provenance + verdict table: .claude/discovery/0626-last30days-skill-steal-analysis.md.

When to run

Invoke for: what happened with {topic} in the last 30 days, recent activity on {company}, what's new with {technology}, signal scan on {market}, pre-call prospect prep, weekly newsletter sourcing, competitor recency checks.

Do NOT invoke for:

  • Internal decision history / "what did we decide" → /think (searches our own decision logs).
  • "What did we discuss in past sessions" → /recall (session DB).
  • A deep, static, 13-dimension competitor dossier → /competitor-research. (This skill is shallow + recent + topic-agnostic; it feeds that skill's "Recent changes" header.)
  • A curated newsletter from links you already collected → /gtme-pulse (this skill sources the raw signal that feeds it).

Brain-first (mandatory): before any external call, run the .claude/rules/brain-first-lookup.md ladder — /recall {topic} + grep client folders. A locked client doc may already hold what a scan would rediscover. Annotate the brief if you went external after a brain miss.

Inputs + flags

Required: topic — the thing to scan (person / company / product / technology / market term). If ambiguous (e.g. "Pivot", "Base", "Bolt"), confirm the disambiguator before running.

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.
