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

post-producthunt 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 1mo 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.

What it actually says

Product Hunt Adapter

Facts live in platforms/producthunt.json (60-char tagline, launch asset requirements). PH historically sits behind Cloudflare bot detection — manual launch is the supported path, and a complete launch kit makes it easy.

What PH rewards (culture)

  • "What it does, for whom" taglines — concrete beats clever.
  • A demo GIF/screenshots that show the product working.
  • A maker comment with the real story: why you built it.
  • Launch-day presence: the maker answers every comment personally.

Drafting from the content graph (launch kit)

  • name (≤40), tagline (≤60) from core-claim — "{does what} for {whom}".
  • context → problem paragraph of the description.
  • proof → key-features list.
  • demo/link → product URL + gallery assets (media manifest).
  • roadmap → "what's next" line in the description.
  • cta → maker comment: personal, invitational, first-person.
  • Disclosures: maker comments ARE the disclosure — "I built this".

Publishing

  • manual only (launch submission is web-only). The draft package contains the full kit: name, tagline, description, maker comment, media manifest, topic suggestions.
  • PH API v2 is read-oriented — no launch endpoint; not implemented.
  • Launch timing is a human decision (Tue–Thu convention is folklore, the data file says so).

Genuine engagement

  • The maker answers comments all launch day — that conversation is the point.
  • Never solicit votes off-platform; PH explicitly prohibits vote-rings.

Pitfalls

  • One launch per product; re-launches need a substantial update.
  • Missing gallery/demo assets sinks a launch — check the media manifest.
Files

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
