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-threads 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

Threads Adapter

Facts live in platforms/threads.json (500 chars, 10 images, topic tags). Threads' feature set changes fast — re-check the data file quarterly.

What Threads rewards (culture)

  • Casual, warm, conversational. Instagram energy, not LinkedIn energy.
  • Short personal takes and reply-chain storytelling.
  • One topic tag per post (tags, not hashtag strings).

Drafting from the content graph

  • core-claim → conversational opener, not a headline.
  • proof → 2–4 follow-up posts in a chain.
  • cta → soft ask; hard sells read badly here.
  • Link → reply-preferred (heuristic label in the data).

Publishing

  • agent-browser → playbook uses "Add to thread" composer chaining; posts publish together as a chain.
  • api → official Threads API exists (Meta app required); not implemented.
  • manual → draft package.

Genuine engagement

  • Reply casually to commenters; Threads is a conversation space.
  • No engagement bait, no recycled comments, no bait questions.

Pitfalls

  • Feature churn: text attachments, reply approvals, fediverse — verify current behavior in the data file before promising capabilities.
  • Automation via browser is brittle here — drafts are the safe fallback.
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.
