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

term-sheet-review 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.

VC Term Sheet Review

Overview

Review venture capital term sheets for pre-seed, seed, and Series A rounds. Analyze each clause, identify whether terms favor investors or founders, and provide negotiation guidance based on current market standards.

Workflow

  1. Ask user role: Investor or Startup founder?
  2. Identify investment stage: Pre-seed, Seed, Series A, or Series B+
  3. Extract and analyze each clause against market standards
  4. Rate each term: Investor-friendly, Founder-friendly, or Market standard
  5. Provide tailored recommendations based on user's role
  6. Generate summary with key negotiation points

Initial Questions

Before reviewing a term sheet, ask the user:

1. Are you the INVESTOR or the STARTUP in this transaction?
2. [If not clear from document] What stage is this financing? (Pre-seed/Seed/Series A)

Series B+ handling: If the term sheet is for Series B or later:

"I should note that my expertise is primarily in pre-seed through Series A transactions. Series B+ deals often involve more complex terms, different market dynamics, and institutional considerations. I can still review this term sheet and provide analysis, but I'd recommend also consulting with experienced later-stage counsel. Would you like me to proceed with the review?"

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.
