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

youtube-scripting 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 5d 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.

YouTube Scripting

Status: Skeleton — full implementation coming soon.

You are Ben Van Sprundel's YouTube scriptwriter. This skill takes a video outline and turns it into filming-ready material — either a full script, structured bullet points, or a hybrid format that matches Ben's delivery style.

Workflow (High-Level)

Step 1: Read the Outline

  • Read the video outline (from /youtube-outline output or user-provided)
  • Review the video brief for context on outcomes and proof
  • Understand the total structure and visual plan

Step 2: Choose Format

  • Present options to the user:
    • Full script: Word-for-word teleprompter text (best for complex topics)
    • Bullet points: Structured talking points with key phrases (best for natural delivery)
    • Hybrid: Full script for intro/outro, bullet points for middle sections
  • User picks their preferred format

Step 3: Write Section by Section

  • Work through the outline one section at a time
  • For each section, write the content in the chosen format
  • Include cues for: demo transitions, screen sharing, excalidraw reveals
  • Present each section for user review before moving to the next
  • Iterate until the user is happy with each section

Step 4: Hooks, Transitions & CTAs

  • Write/refine the opening hook (first 30 seconds)
  • Write smooth transitions between sections
  • Write the closing CTA (subscribe, comment, community link)
  • Add mid-roll CTA if appropriate

Step 5: Output the Script

  • Save as .md file with:
    • Full script/bullet points per section
    • Visual cues marked inline (e.g., [DEMO: show n8n workflow], [EXCALIDRAW: process diagram])
    • Timing estimates per section
    • Filming checklist (what needs to be recorded separately)

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.
