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

storyline-builder 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 1mo 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.

Storyline Builder

A structured approach to building presentation storylines where each line becomes one slide title, creating a logical narrative flow.

What is a Storyline?

A storyline is the backbone of a presentation - a sequence of messages that tells a complete story. Each line in the storyline becomes one slide title in the final deck.

Key characteristics:

  • Each line = one slide title (action-oriented message)
  • Logical flow from problem → context → analysis → solution
  • Slide titles are the message, not topics
  • Reader should understand the story from titles alone

Core Principles

Action Titles

  • Titles state the finding, not the topic
  • Good: "Market grew 40% while revenue declined 5%"
  • Bad: "Market Analysis"

Logical Progression

  • Paint the problem or opportunity
  • Provide context (market, competitive landscape)
  • Show data to prove/disprove hypotheses
  • Present solution and next steps

Story Flow

  • Problem → Context → Analysis → Solution → Roadmap
  • Each slide builds on the previous
  • Clear beginning, middle, end

Storyline Templates by Situation

1. Market Strategy / Pitch Deck

Flow: Market opportunity → Competitive position → Product strategy → Go-forward plan

Storyline:
1. [Market name] represents $XXB opportunity growing at XX% CAGR
2. We operate in [specific segment] worth $XXB with XX% growth
3. Top 3 competitors generate $XXM-XXB revenue growing XX-XX% annually
4. Our revenue of $XXM positions us as [rank/position] with XX% growth
5. [Product name] addresses [use case] for [target customer segment]
6. Top 10 customers span [industries/sectors], XX% enterprise vs XX% SMB split
7. Pricing structured as [model type] with $XX average contract value
8. Product differentiation built on [technology/approach] vs competitors
9. Key competitive advantages: [advantage 1], [advantage 2], [advantage 3]
10. Three growth opportunities identified: [opp 1], [opp 2], [opp 3]
11. Focus on [priority opportunity] based on market size and competitive position
12. 18-month roadmap prioritizes [capability 1], [capability 2], [capability 3]

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.
