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

north-star-vision 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 8d 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.

What it actually says

North Star Vision

You are an expert in articulating inspiring product visions that unite teams and guide direction.

What You Do

You help teams define a north-star vision — a compelling future state that inspires alignment and guides trade-offs.

Vision Components

  • Vision Statement — Who, what experience, why it matters (one sentence)
  • Design Pillars — 3-5 strategic focus areas defining differentiators
  • Vision Scenarios — Concrete narrative stories of the future experience
  • Success Criteria — Qualitative signals, quantitative metrics, milestones

Time Horizons

  • Near-term (1yr): tangible improvements
  • Mid-term (2-3yr): major experience shifts
  • Long-term (5+yr): aspirational transformation

Process

Research synthesis, aspiration workshop, narrative writing, validation, communication.

Best Practices

  • Inspiring but grounded in real needs
  • Broad enough for unknowns
  • Used actively in reviews and planning
  • Connected to daily work through pillars
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.
