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

impactful-writing 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.

Impactful Writing

Overview

Transform any content into clear, memorable, and actionable text using research-backed principles that work across all platforms and contexts. This skill synthesizes 50+ years of readability research, neuroscience of memory, and platform engagement studies into practical techniques.

Core insight: The same psychological principles drive engagement everywhere - clarity reduces cognitive load, specificity creates memory, and structure enables scanning. Master these universal patterns and apply them to any writing context.

When to Use This Skill

  • Writing or editing Twitter/X posts, threads, or social content
  • Creating blog posts, Medium articles, or long-form content
  • Drafting documentation, README files, or technical writing
  • Composing emails, Slack messages, or professional communication
  • Writing GitHub comments, PR descriptions, or code reviews
  • Creating update messages, announcements, or change logs
  • Editing any existing content for clarity and impact

Universal Writing Principles

These evidence-based principles work across all platforms and contexts.

1. Clarity Through Simplicity

Sentence length determines comprehension:

  • 14 words: 90%+ reader comprehension
  • 25 words: Difficulty begins
  • 43 words: <10% comprehension

Target: 15-20 words average, 25 words maximum per sentence.

Word choice matters:

  • Simple words process 76% faster than jargon
  • Active voice processes 15-20% faster than passive
  • Concrete beats abstract (activates sensory brain regions)

2. Structure for Scanning

79% of readers scan rather than read. Design for this reality:

  • Front-load key information (inverted pyramid)
  • Use descriptive headings every 3-4 paragraphs
  • Keep paragraphs to 3-5 sentences maximum
  • Use bullet points for 3+ related items
  • Optimal line length: 50-75 characters

3. Emotional Resonance

Stories trigger oxytocin release, enabling empathy and memory formation:

  • Open with a hook (question, surprising fact, brief story)
  • Use sensory, concrete language
  • Create curiosity gaps (specific questions readers want answered)
  • Close with memorable takeaways (recency effect)

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.
