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

epic-blitz 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.

name: epic-blitz description: Three-round adversarial critique of epic drafts (high / mid / low abstraction) with revision after each round. Produces a chain-ready revised epic.

Epic Blitz

A three-round pipeline for rigorous epic critique and revision. Fifteen independent critics across three abstraction levels (high, mid, low) review the epic in panels of five. After each panel, a senior reviser adjudicates the findings — accepting, rejecting, deferring, clarifying, or escalating — and produces a revised epic. The final readiness stage assesses whether the epic is ready for megaplan chain decomposition into milestone briefs.

When to invoke Epic Blitz

Use Epic Blitz when:

  • You have a draft epic document and want adversarial review before committing to chain planning.
  • You want to surface strategic risks, missing abstractions, decomposition flaws, convention mismatches, and implementation feasibility gaps.
  • You want a structured, artifact-oriented critique process rather than ad-hoc human review.
  • You need a readiness assessment before running megaplan chain.

Do NOT use Epic Blitz for:

  • Prose or document review (use writing-panel-strict for that).
  • Sprint-level critique (Epic Blitz is for epic-level documents).

Required input

  • draft (file, required): Path to the epic markdown draft to review.

Usage

# Run with default profile
megaplan run epic-blitz path/to/epic.md

# Run with explicit inputs flag
megaplan run epic-blitz --inputs draft=path/to/epic.md

# Run with a specific profile
megaplan run epic-blitz path/to/epic.md --profile @epic-blitz:standard

Pipeline flow

Epic Blitz runs three critique-and-revision rounds, each at a different abstraction level:

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.
