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

presentations 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.

Presentations skill

Use this skill to create or improve presentation deliverables. A good deck is not just text split across slides: it has a clear audience, narrative arc, slide-level purpose, visual hierarchy, and a practical speaking or reading flow.

This QuickForge adaptation intentionally does not depend on Codex cache paths, Codex workspace dependencies, or @oai/artifact-tool. Prefer Markdown slide outlines, speaker notes, and deck specs first. If the user explicitly needs PPTX generation, explain the available local workflow and ask before using shell commands or external tools.

When to use

Use this skill for requests involving:

  • New slide decks, pitch decks, executive updates, board decks, sales decks, training decks, lecture decks, or conference talks.
  • Slide outlines, storyboards, speaker notes, talk tracks, or visual direction.
  • Reviewing or rewriting existing deck content.
  • Turning a report, notes, transcript, or dataset into a presentation.
  • PPTX-oriented deliverables where the first output can be a precise deck blueprint.

Deck principles

  1. Audience first. Determine who the deck is for and what decision or understanding it should drive.
  2. One main idea per slide. Each slide should have a clear takeaway title.
  3. Narrative arc. Use a logical flow: context → problem → insight → recommendation → next steps.
  4. Visual hierarchy. Prefer concise text, meaningful grouping, and clear emphasis.
  5. Evidence and action. For business decks, tie claims to evidence and end with actionable next steps.
  6. Readable density. Executive decks can be denser than live talks; live talks need fewer words and stronger speaker notes.
  7. Consistency. Keep terminology, structure, and visual patterns consistent across slides.

New presentation

  1. Identify audience, purpose, desired length, tone, and delivery mode.
  2. Create a deck outline with slide titles and slide objectives.
  3. Draft slide-by-slide content:
    • Slide title as takeaway.
    • Key bullets or content blocks.
    • Suggested visual.
    • Optional speaker notes.
  4. Check flow and remove redundancy.
  5. If writing to disk, create a Markdown deck spec or outline file unless the user requested another format.

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.
