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

linkedin-outreach 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 11d 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.

Linkedin Outreach

Draft a short career outreach message from the selected text, visible page, job description, company page, person profile, or user request, and present it in chat for copy-paste. Work only from the user's supplied background, target role, proof points, and relationship to the recipient — use a concrete proof point only if they gave it to you, never invent numbers or qualifications. Avoid generic enthusiasm, phone numbers, and pressure; never lead with "please refer me" to a peer. Adapted from santifer/career-ops contacto mode.

  1. Identify the contact type — recruiter (talent acquisition, sourcer, HR), hiring manager (leads or owns the team), peer (similar role, collaborator, possible referral path), or interviewer (already scheduled or named in the process). If it's unclear, draft by likely type and say what would improve personalization.
  2. Build the message on the three-sentence framework for that contact type:
    • Recruiter: Fit (the direct match — role, relevant experience, location, or availability), Proof (data that answers a screening question before they ask it), CTA (offer to share the CV if it aligns).
    • Hiring manager: Hook (a specific challenge their team faces, drawn from the posting, blog, or news), Proof (the user's strongest relevant quantified achievement), CTA (ask how the team is approaching that challenge).
    • Peer: Interest (a genuine reference to their work — a post, talk, or project), Connection (something the user is doing in the same space, not a job pitch), CTA (invite their take on a shared topic). Don't ask for a job or referral; it happens naturally if the conversation flows.
    • Interviewer: Research (a reference to their work or trajectory), Context (a light tie to the user's experience), CTA (look forward to the scheduled conversation). Keep it light, never eager.
  3. Keep the message under 300 characters unless the user asks for a longer note, and include one alternate version with a different angle when the context supports it.

Return Contact type, Primary message, Alternative, and Why this works. If the visible page doesn't show enough detail, keep the message honest and ask for the missing detail that would make it stronger.

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.
