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

edge-strategy-designer 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 13d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (scripts/design_strategy_drafts.py, scripts/tests/conftest.py, scripts/tests/test_design_strategy_drafts.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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

Edge Strategy Designer

Overview

Translate concept-level hypotheses into concrete strategy draft specs. This skill sits after concept synthesis and before pipeline export validation.

When to Use

  • You have edge_concepts.yaml and need strategy candidates.
  • You want multiple variants (core/conservative/research-probe) per concept.
  • You want optional exportable ticket files for interface v1 families.

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.9+
  • PyYAML
  • edge_concepts.yaml produced by concept synthesis

Output

  • strategy_drafts/*.yaml
  • strategy_drafts/run_manifest.json
  • Optional exportable_tickets/*.yaml for downstream export_candidate.py

Workflow

  1. Load edge_concepts.yaml.
  2. Choose risk profile (conservative, balanced, aggressive).
  3. Generate per-concept variants with hypothesis-type exit calibration.
  4. Apply HYPOTHESIS_EXIT_OVERRIDES to adjust stop-loss, reward-to-risk, time-stop, and trailing-stop per hypothesis type (breakout, earnings_drift, panic_reversal, etc.).
  5. Clamp reward-to-risk at RR_FLOOR=1.5 to prevent C5 review failures.
  6. Export v1-ready ticket YAML when applicable.
  7. Hand off exportable tickets to skills/edge-candidate-agent/scripts/export_candidate.py.

Quick Commands

Generate drafts only:

python3 skills/edge-strategy-designer/scripts/design_strategy_drafts.py \
  --concepts /tmp/edge-concepts/edge_concepts.yaml \
  --output-dir /tmp/strategy-drafts \
  --risk-profile balanced

Generate drafts + exportable tickets:

python3 skills/edge-strategy-designer/scripts/design_strategy_drafts.py \
  --concepts /tmp/edge-concepts/edge_concepts.yaml \
  --output-dir /tmp/strategy-drafts \
  --exportable-tickets-dir /tmp/exportable-tickets \
  --risk-profile conservative

Files

What ships with it

6 files 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.
