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

threads-reply-drafter 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 yesterday.

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.

Threads Reply Drafter

Drafts a reply in a conversation, or a quote post, for a specific Threads post. On Threads a reply to another user is a separate post that references the original. Replies nest naturally: there is no LinkedIn-style 2-level flattening and no parent-comment URN to resolve.

When to use

  • User pastes a Threads post URL and says "reply to this"
  • A creator replied to the user and they want to continue the conversation
  • User wants to quote-post a take and add value (not a cheap dunk)

Input

A Threads post URL (threads.net/@HANDLE/post/CODE or the threads.com equivalent), plus the post text (and any conversation context) pasted by the user, since this bundle has no built-in post reader.

Output

  • 1-3 reply or quote-post drafts, each under 500 chars
  • A reply vs quote post recommendation with the reason
  • A short context summary (who said what)
  • An approval card. On approval the draft is returned as a copy-paste block.

Reply vs quote post

Use a reply when Use a quote post when
You are adding to the conversation in place Your addition deserves its own reach
You are answering a question or engaging a creator Your followers should see the original for context
You want intimacy over reach You want reach and a take on your own timeline

Default to a reply for direct engagement and a quote post when the user's point is strong enough to stand as its own post. Never quote-dunk on a small account; add value or skip it. Keep the tone warm, this is Threads.

Steps

Voice profile first (all drafts). If ../../references/voice-profile.md has filled: yes, load it and match the user's voice fingerprint, hard rules, and CTA/link style throughout. If it is not filled, mention once that threads-humanizer --mode profile can learn their voice from a few posts, then proceed with the generic voice rules.

  1. Parse the URL. lib.url_parser.parse_threads_url(url) returns handle, post_id, canonical_url.
  2. Read the context. Ask the user to paste the target post and the relevant conversation above it. If the user is already in the thread, include their prior post.
  3. Decide reply vs quote post using the table above. Recommend one, but let the user override.
  4. Draft 1-3 variants using references/reply-templates.md. If the counterpart asked a question, answer it plainly with one real detail. If they pushed back, concede then sharpen. Keep it warm.
  5. Humanizer pass. Scrub 2026 AI vocab by density, cap em dashes (at most one per reply, never swap one for a period), strip reveal bridges and sincerity openers ("not gonna lie", "let me be honest"). Leave the rhythm alone; never insert a fragment for punch. Keep each variant under 500 chars and one hashtag max. One idea per reply. Canonical rules: threads-humanizer V3.
  6. Approval card. Show the conversation context, the variants, the reply-vs-quote recommendation, and the target URL.
  7. On approval. Call lib.publish(kind="reply", draft_text=<approved>, target_url=<canonical_url>) for a reply, or kind="quote" for a quote post. A reply to another user has no Publora endpoint (create-post cannot target someone else's post), so kind="reply" always returns a copy-paste block. A kind="quote" could in principle post a new post containing the original URL via Publora, but the default is still copy-paste so the user controls the embed. Paste it on Threads yourself.
