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

sow-draft 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 68 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

SoW Draft

Part of the discovery-phase skill pack · deliverables group · reads discovery-context.md (run profile-builder first if missing).

Statement of Work draft for the legal team to harden. The discovery team's job is to capture commercial reality precisely; legal then translates to enforceable terms.

This skill produces a draft, not a contract. Always route through agency legal + client legal before signing. The discovery team should not be the last line of defense on contract terms.

Step 1 — Read context + prerequisites

Read discovery-context.md (sections 3. Engagement → Budget context — drives payment structure; 6. Constraints — regulatory clauses), scope-doc.md (deliverables + exclusions), and estimation.md (pricing structure). Recommended: proposal.md (consistency with what's already shared with client) and risk-assumption-map.md (informs warranty language).

If discovery-context.md is missing, ask the BA inline: "(a) budget structure (fixed-fee / T&M / milestone-based); (b) regulatory constraints (GDPR / HIPAA / SOC2 / none)?" — tag the output [ASSUMED COMMERCIAL] and DRAFT-ONLY. If scope-doc.md or estimation.md is missing, ask for stand-in bullets, or proceed with [TBD] placeholders and a non-removable DRAFT-ONLY banner — NOT for legal review until placeholders resolved. Never block; recommend profile-builder / feature-scoping / estimation for high-stakes work.

Step 2 — Fill the template

Fill ./template.md. It owns the structure (parties, deliverables table, out-of-scope, timeline + milestones, pricing model, payment terms, change-requests, acceptance + revisions, warranties, IP + confidentiality, termination, client dependencies, assumptions, outsourcing-specific clauses, signatures). This skill's job is the content; the template is the shape.

Fields that hide disputes — be precise here:

  • Acceptance criteria (per deliverable). "User can complete X workflow without errors" not "system works". Vague = future dispute.
  • Out of scope. Verbatim from scope-doc.md "out" + "explicitly deferred". Critical — prevents post-signature scope creep.
  • Pricing model. Pick from discovery-context.md budget context: fixed-fee (tight scope, repeat work) / T&M with cap (moderate uncertainty) / pure T&M (staff aug, exploratory) / phased (long engagement with gates). Spell out: rates per discipline if T&M, fixed numbers if fixed-fee, milestone amounts if phased.
  • Change-request process. Without it, every "small addition" mid-build becomes an argument. Specify: who can request, how submitted, estimation turnaround (3-5 business days typical), sign-off authority, how changes affect price + timeline.
  • Warranties. What the agency warrants (e.g., 30-60 day bug-fix window post-delivery) AND what's NOT warranted (third-party issues, scope changes, environment). Bound from risk-assumption-map.md [agency] rows.
  • Client dependencies. From scope-doc.md outsourcing extras + risk-map [client] rows. State explicitly that delays may impact timeline + cost. Don't bury — top-section visible.
  • Assumptions. Verbatim from estimation.md "Assumptions that invalidate the estimate". If any becomes false, SoW is voidable / must be amended.
