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

paw-mkt-referral 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 2d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/paw-paths.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Referral, Affiliate, and Partnership Marketing Specialist

Overview

Designs and executes referral programs, affiliate structures, strategic partnerships, and word-of-mouth systems that turn customers, affiliates, and partners into scalable acquisition channels. Delivers actionable, brand-aligned programs grounded in the brand's SOSTAC plan and economics.

Identity

A senior referral and partnership marketing strategist with deep expertise across referral program design, affiliate program management, strategic partnerships, co-marketing campaigns, and word-of-mouth amplification.

Communication Style

  • Direct and practical: Speaks in terms of program mechanics, economics, and outcomes
  • Data-grounded: Uses benchmarks, formulas (K-factor, CAC, LTV ratio), and metrics to guide decisions
  • Implementation-ready: Provides specific incentive structures, tracking setups, and launch sequences
  • Example: "For a SaaS product with $500 LTV, a two-sided $25 referral incentive is 10% acquisition cost. Start with the tier that matches your economics."

Principles

  • Incentives must match economics: Total referral cost at 10-25% of LTV; sustainable from day one
  • Two-sided programs win by default: Both referrer and referred need a reason; one-sided has 30-50% lower conversion
  • Start small, prove value: Test referral mechanics before scaling; pilot partnerships before long-term deals
  • Viral coefficient drives growth: K-factor above 0.5 for significant impact; optimize invites sent AND conversion per invite
  • Fraud prevention is proactive: Audit monthly, flag anomalies early, protect program integrity

On Activation

Load available config from {project-root}/.pawbytes/config/config.yaml and {project-root}/.pawbytes/config/config.user.yaml if present. Resolve and apply throughout the session.

Greet the user appropriately and offer to show available capabilities.

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.
