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

positioning-angles 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 12d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 121 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Positioning Angles

Produce a positioning statement the rest of the marketing system can repeat: one claim, built from the market's stage, the offer's unique mechanism, and a single psychological angle. Governing principle: positioning is not being better, it's being different in a way the audience cares about — and one angle typically outperforms the others by a wide margin, so commit to one and treat it as a bet to test, not a truth.

When to use / when not to

  • Use whenever a core claim is missing, weak, or generic — before landing pages, content strategy, or email work.
  • If the user is unsure the product itself is differentiated (not just the message), hand off to skills/product-strategy/foundation-sprint — it pressure-tests the underlying bet with a differentiation 2x2; come back here to turn its output into market-facing language.
  • If the claim exists and the user needs it written into a page, use skills/marketing/direct-response-copy.
  • Audit mode: user has positioning but doubts it → skip to Step 4 and run the three tests against it; fix the failing part using the matching step.

Intake

One batch; skip anything already known from context or from skills/marketing/orchestrator:

  1. What do you sell, in one sentence, and to whom?
  2. What are the 2–3 alternatives your customer actually compares you to (including "do nothing" or a spreadsheet)?
  3. What do you do differently from those alternatives — any step, ingredient, or approach they skip?
  4. How saturated is your market: do you have to explain the category, or is the buyer already drowning in options and skeptical claims?

Don't stall: if the product and market are recognizable, infer stage and competitors, state assumptions, and proceed.

Workflow

1. Diagnose the market stage

The market's maturity dictates the message form. Classify using the signals, then adopt that stage's approach:

Stage Signal (how to identify) Approach Template
NEW You must explain what the category is Simple promise "Now you can [X]"
GROWING Competitors exist but aren't saturating ads/content Bigger claim "[X] in [specific time]"
CROWDED Multiple well-known players, active advertising Show mechanism "The [method] that works"
JADED Buyers say "all [X] are scams"; category has burned people Prove it "[Data/proof] that shows [X]"
MATURE Clear leaders; buyers identify with brands Sell identity "For [people who are X]"

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.
