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

growth-hacking 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 2mo 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.

Growth Hacking

The orchestration layer for growth: pick the bottleneck, design an experiment, ship it, read the result honestly, compound the wins. This skill owns frameworks, loop economics, experiment design, instrumentation, and the guardrails that keep growth legal and non-manipulative. For deep execution it cross-links to siblings (do not duplicate them):

  • Experiment statistics / sample size / sequential testing → ab-testing
  • PLG mechanics, freemium tiering, self-serve revenue → product-led-growth
  • Churn, cohort, health/engagement scoring, win-back → retention-analytics
  • Referral program mechanics, payouts, partner tracking → affiliate-marketing
  • GA4, attribution models, dashboards → marketing-analytics
  • Welcome/nurture/winback email + bulk-sender compliance → email-sequence
  • GDPR/ePrivacy/consent (EU) → eu-legal-compliance

Golden rule: growth-hack the funnel, not the human. Every tactic below must be truthful, reversible, and something you'd be comfortable explaining to the user out loud. Manipulative dark patterns are out of scope and increasingly illegal (see Responsible Growth).


1. AARRR Framework (Pirate Metrics)

Stage Core metric How to read it Typical SaaS reference range*
Acquisition New qualified signups / channel Cost (CAC) and quality (downstream activation), not raw volume Channel-dependent; judge by CAC payback < 12 mo
Activation % reaching the aha action in first session/week Define the single action correlated with retention Self-serve B2C 20–40%; PLG B2B 30–50%
Retention Cohort retention at the natural usage cadence Look at the curve shape (does it flatten?), not one number Varies wildly by category — see note below
Revenue Free→paid conversion / expansion (NRR) Separate new conversion from expansion Freemium 2–5%; free-trial 10–25%; NRR target >100%
Referral Viral coefficient K and referral share of new users Decompose K (see §2) instead of trusting one number K rarely >1 in practice; >0.4 is already strong

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.
