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

earned-media-outreach 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.

Earned Media Outreach

When to Use

  • Founder wants to get featured on podcasts as a guest
  • Founder wants press coverage from journalists and tech publications
  • Founder wants to build relationships with media for ongoing exposure
  • Founder wants to identify which podcasts and publications reach their target audience
  • Founder wants to write pitch emails that actually get responses

Context Required

  • Founder's story and what makes it interesting (not just what the product does)
  • Target audience — who are you trying to reach through media? (customers, investors, talent)
  • Topics the founder can speak on with genuine authority
  • Previous media experience (if any)
  • Upcoming newsworthy events (launch, funding round, milestone, contrarian take)

Workflow

  1. Define the media angle — journalists and podcast hosts don't cover products, they cover stories. Identify your angles:
    • Founder story: unusual background, pivot story, "I quit X to build Y"
    • Trend story: "Why [trend] is changing [industry]" — you as the expert source
    • Data story: original data or insights from your product/market
    • Contrarian take: challenge conventional wisdom in your space
    • Milestone: funding round, user milestone, revenue milestone, major partnership
  2. Build the target list — research podcasts and publications that reach your audience:
    • Podcasts: search Apple Podcasts, Spotify, ListenNotes, and Podchaser by topic. Look for shows that have had similar-stage founders as guests. Check episode frequency (active shows only) and audience size (download numbers if available).
    • Publications: identify journalists who cover your space. Read their last 10 articles. Follow them on X/Twitter. Check if they have a tips inbox or preferred pitch method.
    • Newsletters: Substack writers, industry newsletter authors who feature startups
    • YouTube channels: tech reviewers, industry commentators
  3. Tier the list — prioritize by reach x relevance:
    • Tier 1 (5-10): perfect audience fit, worth significant prep time
    • Tier 2 (10-20): good fit, standard outreach
    • Tier 3 (20+): adjacent audience, batch outreach
  4. Write the pitches — different formats for different targets:
    • Podcast pitch: short, personal, focused on what you'll teach their audience (not what you'll promote)
    • Journalist pitch: newsworthy angle, relevant data, why their readers care, not a press release
    • Newsletter pitch: how featuring you provides value to their subscribers
  5. Send and follow up — outreach cadence:
    • Initial pitch
    • Follow-up 1 (5-7 days later, add new context)
    • Follow-up 2 (7-10 days later, final touch — offer a different angle)
    • Move on after 3 touches with no response
  6. Prepare for appearances — for confirmed bookings:
    • Research the host's style and past episodes
    • Prepare 3-5 talking points with stories (not bullet points)
    • Have a clear CTA for listeners (one thing, not five)
    • Send the host a prep sheet with your bio, headshot, topics, and any questions to avoid

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.
