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

featured-snippet 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 7d 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 — 134 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Guides optimization for Featured Snippets (Position Zero)—direct answers displayed above organic results. Featured snippets appear on ~19% of queries; by 2025, AI Overviews replaced many, but snippet optimization still supports AI citation and PAA. See serp-features for full SERP context.

When invoking: On first use, if helpful, open with 1–2 sentences on what this skill covers and why it matters, then provide the main output. On subsequent use or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output.

Scope

  • Featured Snippet formats: Paragraph, list, table
  • Content structure: Answer-first, H2/H3, semantic HTML
  • Query targeting: How, what, why; positions 2–5 opportunity
  • AI Overviews: Layered content for both snippets and AI citation

Current Landscape (2025–2026)

  • Featured snippets appear on ~19% of search queries
  • AI Overviews replaced 83%+ of featured snippets in many regions; appear in ~47% of US searches
  • When AI Overviews show, 83% of searches may end without clicks (zero-click)—goal shifts to citation as well as CTR. Featured Snippets also cause zero-click when the answer suffices. See serp-features for zero-click by feature.
  • Position zero still captures ~35% of clicks when snippets appear; pages with snippets see ~8% higher organic CTR
  • Optimize for both traditional snippets and AI Overviews

Featured Snippet vs AI Overview

Not the same. Featured snippets pull a direct passage from a single webpage. AI Overviews generate multi-source summaries using AI. When both appear, featured snippets still occupy a highly visible spot. Not every query triggers AI Overview—snippet optimization remains valuable. Semrush

Snippet Formats & Share

Format Share Use Optimization
Paragraph ~70% Definition, "what is," "why" 40–60 words; direct answer after H2
List ~19% How-to, steps, options <ol> or <ul>; semantic HTML
Table ~6% Comparisons, stats, specs Clear headers; target keywords in column/row headers
Video Rare Visual how-to Video schema; timestamps/chapters; see video-optimization

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.
