Case Study Builder

Case Study Builder is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from SkillMedev/content-marketing-engine. It costs 122 tokens per session (1,619 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of Case Study Builder, MIT.

A guide for turning real customer evidence into a case study: a short story showing a customer's problem, the solution, and the results. It uses interviews, measurable outcomes, and customer quotes rather than invented claims.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare questions, gather customer and business details, structure a challenge-solution-results story, and write a web page, PDF, or sales-deck case study.
Why use it?
It prevents teams from writing generic marketing copy before they know what actually happened. It also helps separate confirmed numbers from estimates and identify limits in the available source material.

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

Case Study Builder 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 4d 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 — 114 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Case Study Builder

A case study sells by proof, not adjectives - the customer and the numbers do the talking. The costly mistake is writing it backwards: drafting marketing copy first and asking the customer to bless it, which produces approved-by-legal mush with no quotes worth reading and no numbers worth citing. Get the raw material first; the story is assembled, not invented.

Operating procedure

The order matters: interview before outline, numbers before draft. A draft written before the interview anchors on your product's talking points instead of the customer's actual story.

Step 1: Gather inputs

  1. The customer: company, industry, size, and the buyer persona this case study should persuade (default: mirror the customer's own profile - readers trust stories about companies like theirs).
  2. Access: can you interview the customer live (best), send written questions (acceptable), or only mine existing calls/emails/reviews (weakest - flag the limitation)?
  3. Any numbers already known: baseline metric, result metric, timeframe. Label estimates as estimates.
  4. Distribution target: web page, PDF leave-behind, or sales deck slide (default: one-page web layout).

Step 2: Run the interview - get the quote raw material first

Never draft before this step. Ask in this order, and record verbatim answers:

  1. "What was breaking, in your own words? What did it cost you - time, money, morale?" (problem + stakes)
  2. "What had you tried before? Why didn't it work?" (failed alternatives - this is where credibility lives)
  3. "What almost stopped you from buying?" (objection - the most persuasive quote in most case studies)
  4. "Walk me through what changed after. What can you do now that you couldn't?" (solution in their words)
  5. "What numbers moved? Even a rough range." (results - push politely: "was it closer to 10% or 50%?")
  6. "What would you tell someone in your seat considering this?" (the closing quote)

Keep quotes raw. "It was a dumpster fire every quarter-end" outsells "the process presented efficiency challenges." Clean grammar only; never sand off voice.

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.
