Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00101 | $0.01872 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00051 | $0.00936 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00020 | $0.00374 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00187 |
Grade A, and why
investor-relations 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 168 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Investor Relations Skill
This skill provides frameworks for effective ongoing investor communication and relationship management, grounded in best practices from Sequoia, Bain Capital Ventures, Y Combinator, and leading operators like Brian Chesky, Stewart Butterfield, and Elad Gil.
Core Philosophy
"Investors don't fund potential -- they fund momentum. If they're not seeing regular progress, they assume there is none."
Investor relations is not a periodic activity -- it's a continuous narrative that builds trust, enables help, and pre-sells future fundraising rounds.
Monthly Investor Update Framework
The 5-15 Format (recommended)
Takes 5 minutes to read, 15 minutes to write.
Required Sections
- TL;DR (2-3 sentences) -- The headline of your month
- Key Metrics -- 3-5 KPIs with month-over-month trends (MRR, growth rate, burn, runway, users)
- Highlights -- 2-3 wins (be specific with numbers)
- Lowlights -- 1-2 challenges (be transparent, show self-awareness)
- Where I Need Help -- 3-5 specific, actionable asks
- Key Hires / Team Updates -- New additions, open roles
The "Where I Need Help" Section
This section always gets responses. Structure asks as:
- Customer intros: Name specific companies and people
- Hiring: Specify role, experience level, target comp
- Fundraising intros: Name specific investors and firms, explain why they're a fit
- Strategic advice: Frame specific decisions you're wrestling with
- Product feedback: Share specific features needing input
The Spreadsheet Method: For target intros, create a spreadsheet with name, title, company, LinkedIn profile. Send to investors and ask them to mark which contacts they can reach.
Critical Rules
- Consistency > perfection. A mediocre update sent on time builds more trust than a polished update sent sporadically.
- Never go dark. Slumping numbers shock investors if they haven't tracked progress.
- Send to prospective investors too. Regular updates to warm leads pre-sell your next round.
- Monthly during normal ops, bi-weekly during active raise.
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.
