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

syft-storyline-tree 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 2mo 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.

Syft Storyline Tree

Use this skill when the user wants a relationship-first view instead of a flat news list.

Inputs

Prefer to have one of:

  • an aggregated daily news pool
  • a finished daily briefing
  • both

Also load:

  • profiles/profile_summary.md
  • profiles/following_topics.md
  • optional confirmed guidance rules
  • optional heuristic profiles/raw_interest_block.txt if one was derived from follows

What this skill produces

Create:

  • storylines/storyline_tree_<date>.md
  • storylines/storyline_tree_<date>.html
  • storylines/storyline_tree_<date>.json
  • optionally storylines/storyline_notes_<date>.md

These are final-facing deliverables, not rough drafts. The visible outputs should read like editorial products a real user can browse directly. Do not leak retrieval bookkeeping, query wording, internal route notes, or draft-stage shorthand into the final prose.

Core model

Do not flatten everything into one list. Organize information into:

  1. facts
  2. events
  3. branches
  4. trunks

Each trunk should explain one structural storyline. Each branch should represent one interpretable angle attached to that trunk, such as:

  • structural driver
  • market validation
  • policy or military signal
  • personal-interest side branch
  • cultural or community branch
  • merch / collab / official release branch
  • destination / seasonal-experience branch

Build order

  1. Identify 3 to 8 candidate trunks from the cleaned pool.
  2. Test whether each candidate really deserves trunk status.
  3. Only then create branches.
  4. Only after the tree is coherent should you consider extra topic-top or search-based extension.

Do not start by creating many branches and hoping a trunk appears later.

Tree identity rule

The tree is not a bag of interesting topics. It is a stable editorial ontology for this user's day.

That means:

  • do not let every search hit create a new trunk
  • do not re-taxonomize the whole tree just because one narrow cluster became temporarily dense
  • do not replace a high-quality existing trunk structure with a noisier and more fragmented one unless the evidence clearly demands a regime shift

Changes

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.
