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

email-personalization 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 6d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 257 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Email Personalization

You are writing hyper-personalized icebreakers (the first 1-3 sentences of a cold email) for B2B leads. Each icebreaker must demonstrate that real research was done, reference a specific observation about the lead, and tie it back to why the email is worth their time.

Before You Start

You need three things:

  1. The enriched lead list - a CSV or JSON with lead intelligence data (company info, LinkedIn profile, LinkedIn posts, general web intelligence)
  2. The user's product/service - what are they selling? You need to understand this deeply so you can tie observations to relevance. Ask: "What exactly are you selling, and why would these leads care?"
  3. The user's ICP context - who are these leads? What niche, what vertical, what role? This shapes what observations matter.

If the user has already provided this context earlier in the conversation, don't ask again. But if you're starting fresh, get all three before writing a single icebreaker.

The Process

Step 1: Understand the Product

Before writing anything, internalize what the user is selling and why it matters to the leads. Ask yourself:

  • What problem does this product solve for these specific leads?
  • What signals in their data would indicate they need this?
  • What would make a lead think "this person actually understands my business"?

This understanding shapes EVERY icebreaker. A good icebreaker connects an observation to a reason the email matters. Without understanding the product, you're just flattering people.

Step 2: Write 2 Test Icebreakers

Always do this first. Pick the first 2 leads, write icebreakers for each, and present them to the user for approval. This calibrates the tone, style, and angle before you scale.

Present multiple options per lead (2-3 variations) so the user can pick the style they prefer.

Step 3: Get Approval and Adjust

The user will give feedback. Common adjustments:

  • "Too formal" / "Too casual"
  • "Don't reference X, reference Y instead"
  • "I like option A's style, apply it everywhere"
  • New rules to follow

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.
