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

copywriting 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 5d 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 — 70 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Write marketing copy that converts

Clarity beats cleverness every time. If you have to choose, choose clear.

Gather before writing (ask for missing pieces — one at a time)

  1. Page type — homepage, landing, pricing, feature, about?
  2. Primary action — the ONE thing visitors should do.
  3. Audience — who they are; what problem they're trying to solve; what language they use.
  4. Differentiation — what makes this meaningfully different from the obvious alternative?
  5. Proof points — numbers, testimonials, case studies, recognisable customers.
  6. Traffic source — organic, paid, email, direct? Awareness level changes the angle.

Core principles

Benefits, not features. Feature: "256-bit encryption". Benefit: "Your files are private — we can't read them, and neither can anyone else." Always translate mechanism → outcome → feeling.

Customer language. Use the words your users use to describe their problem. If interviews say "it's a nightmare to reconcile", the headline says "Stop the reconciliation nightmare" — not "Streamline financial operations."

Specificity > generality. "Save 2 hours a week" > "Save time". "4,200 teams" > "thousands of teams". Specific claims are more believable.

One idea per section. Each section of a page answers one question. Don't layer messages.

Headline formula bank

Formula Example When to use
Outcome + timeframe "Profitable in 90 days or your money back" Strong guarantee; outcome is measurable
Problem reversal "Stop losing deals to follow-up gaps" Pain-aware audience
Social proof + outcome "4,200 teams use Gaffer to ship twice as fast" Strong install base
Who + outcome "For developers who hate waiting on CI" Niche audience; resonance over reach
Contrast "The Stripe fees dashboard you always wanted" Competitor-aware or category-aware audience

CTA copy rules

  • State what happens next: "Start free trial" (not "Get started"), "Book a 20-min demo" (not "Contact us").
  • Match the commitment level to the page: cold traffic → low-commitment CTA (free trial, see pricing); warm traffic → higher-commitment CTA (book demo, talk to sales).
  • Avoid: "Submit", "Click here", "Learn more" as primary CTAs.

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.
