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

content-refresher 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 4d 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.

Content Refresher

Identifies outdated content, scores decay/freshness, prioritizes refresh work, and produces update plans with GEO and republishing guidance.

Quick Start

Find content on [domain] that needs refreshing
Which of my blog posts have lost the most traffic?
Refresh this article for [current year]: [URL/content]
Update this content to outrank [competitor URL]: [your URL]
Create a content refresh strategy for [domain/topic]

Skill Contract

Expected output: a scored diagnosis, prioritized repair plan, and a short handoff summary ready for memory/audits/.

  • Reads: the current page or site state, symptoms, prior audits, and current priorities from AGENTS.md and the shared State Model when available.
  • Writes: a user-facing audit or optimization plan plus a reusable summary that can be stored under memory/audits/.
  • Promotes: blocking defects, repeated weaknesses, fix priorities, and pending decisions to memory/open-loops.md.
  • Primary next skill: use the Next Best Skill below when the repair path is clear.

Handoff Summary

Emit the standard shape from skill-contract.md §Handoff Summary Format.

Data Sources

Use ~~analytics, ~~search console, and ~~SEO tool when connected; otherwise ask for traffic data, ranking history, publish dates, candidate URLs, and competitor examples. See CONNECTORS.md.

Instructions

When a user requests content refresh help:

  1. CORE-EEAT Quick Score -- Estimate all 8 dimensions, prioritize red/yellow areas, and hand off to content-quality-auditor for full scoring when needed.
  2. Identify Refresh Candidates -- Use age, dated claims, declining traffic, lost rankings, broken links, SERP shifts, and missing topics.
  3. Analyze Page-Level Decay -- Compare 6-month-old vs current performance, keyword deltas, SERP intent, competitor updates, and the why-refresh rationale.
  4. Define Updates Needed -- Capture outdated elements, competitor/PAA gaps, SEO updates, GEO updates, links, images, sources, and dates.
  5. Create Refresh Plan -- Specify title, structure, new sections, refreshed statistics, internal/external links, images, and validation requirements.
  6. Write Refresh Content -- Draft updated intro, replacement sections, refreshed facts, FAQ answers, and Changes Made notes.
  7. Optimize for GEO -- Add 40-60 word definitions, quotable statements, Q&A, dated citations, and standalone factual statements.
  8. Set Republishing Strategy -- Use published-date update for 50%+ new content, last-updated date for 20-50%, original date for <20%; update schema, sitemap lastmod, cache, Search Console, and 4-6 week monitoring.
  9. Create Refresh Report -- Summarize completed changes, expected outcomes, owners, next review date, and open loops.

What ships with it

Changes

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.
