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

seedance-viral-hook 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.

Viral Hook — Scroll-Stopping Short-Form Video Prompts

Seedance 2.0 on Higgsfield — Input Specs

  • Images: Up to 9 reference images (mood boards, product shots, brand assets)
  • Videos: Up to 3 video clips (existing footage, motion references)
  • Audio: Up to 3 audio files (trending sounds, voiceover, SFX)
  • Text: Full prompt with timing, camera, lighting, sound
  • Max Assets: 12 total combined
  • Output: 4-15 seconds, 720p video with synchronized audio
  • Reference Syntax: @material[name] to reference uploaded assets

The Attention Economy: Why 2 Seconds

  • 0-2s: The gate. If 50%+ bounce here, the video dies. If 90% stay, the algorithm promotes.
  • 2-5s: Hook confirmation. Brain decides: worth my time or not.
  • 5-15s: Engagement peak. Emotional beats, reveals, payoffs land here.
  • 15s+: Retention cliff. Most viral videos are under 15 seconds.

Videos with 80%+ completion get 2-3x algorithmic reach. Your hook determines everything.


The Hook Arsenal: 12 Battle-Tested Patterns

1. Pattern Interrupt — Break Reality

Technique Mechanism Prompt Template
Physics Break Objects defy gravity, water flows up, time reverses "Open with [object] defying physics — floating upward, sliding in reverse, freezing mid-air. Camera steady, treating impossible action as mundane. First 0.8s shows normal expectation, 0.8-2s breaks it. No music, only ambient sound emphasizing the wrongness."
Scale Warp Familiar object at impossible size "Extreme wide shot: [tiny object — coin, key, pen] scaled to building size in landscape. Human figure provides scale reference at base. Drone-style camera slowly pushing forward. Overcast lighting, photorealistic. Viewer spends 2s processing scale."
Color Bomb Grayscale world gets sudden saturation "Scene begins fully desaturated — gray, lifeless, muted. At 1.2s, single element ignites with saturated color [neon pink/electric blue/gold]. Color bleeds outward across frame over 0.8s. Hard bass hit synced to color moment."

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.
