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

outreach-4-categories 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.

The 4 Categories of Outreach

INBOUND (1:Many Messaging Only)

Definition:

  • Prospect knows your company
  • Hand-raisers taking marketing action asking to evaluate your product

Trigger: Demo requests, chat box inquiries

Messaging approach: 1:Many only (they came to you)


POSTBOUND (1:Many + 1:1 Messaging)

Definition:

  • Prospect knows your company
  • Marketing leads that are NOT hand-raisers

Trigger: Content engagement without explicit buying intent

Messaging approach: Mix of templated + personalized


BRIDGEBOUND (1:Many + 1:1 Messaging)

Definition:

  • Prospect sometimes knows your company
  • Segmented outbound based on premises that raise meeting/buying likelihood

Trigger: Prospect or company action NOT related to your marketing

Messaging approach: Signal-based personalization

5 Sub-Categories:

  1. Based on Relationship (39 triggers)
  2. Based on History (16 triggers)
  3. Based on Likely "In Market" (20 triggers)
  4. Based on Symptoms & Signs (11 triggers)
  5. Based on Firmographic (15 triggers)

OUTBOUND (1:1 Messaging Only)

Definition:

  • Prospect doesn't know your company
  • Coming in cold

Trigger: Prospect selected by prospecting team

Messaging approach: Fully personalized (1:1 only)


Messaging Matrix

Category Prospect Awareness Messaging Type Personalization Level
Inbound High 1:Many Low
Postbound Medium 1:Many + 1:1 Medium
Bridgebound Low-Medium 1:Many + 1:1 Medium-High
Outbound None 1:1 Only High

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.
