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

hr-workforce-economics 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.

Workforce economics

Model the financial dimensions of workforce decisions — fully loaded labor cost, productivity economics, and the ROI of workforce investments — so HR decisions are grounded in the same financial rigor as other business investments.

Supported tasks

  • Calculating fully loaded labor cost by role, level, and location
  • Building business cases for headcount requests with financial justification
  • Comparing the cost economics of hiring, contracting, and outsourcing
  • Modeling the ROI of workforce investments (L&D, tools, restructuring)
  • Analyzing labor cost as a percentage of revenue and benchmarking against industry
  • Modeling the financial impact of turnover and time-to-fill
  • Assessing the cost-benefit of geographic labor arbitrage decisions
  • Building workforce cost forecasts tied to the annual budget cycle
  • Analyzing productivity economics (output per FTE, revenue per employee)
  • Modeling the cost implications of workforce scenario plans
  • Translating workforce economics into language finance and executives use
  • Identifying workforce cost optimization opportunities without cutting capability

Key prompts

Cost modeling

  1. "Calculate fully loaded labor cost for a [role] in [location], including base, benefits, taxes, and overhead."
  2. "Compare the total cost of hiring a full-time [role] vs. contracting the same work over a [timeframe]."
  3. "Model the cost-benefit of relocating [function] work to [location] considering labor cost, productivity, and risk."
  4. "How should we account for hidden costs like ramp time and management overhead when comparing offshore versus onshore staffing?"

Business cases

  1. "Build a financial business case for adding [number] headcount to [team], including cost, expected output, and payback period."
  2. "Model the ROI of investing in [L&D program / new tool / restructuring initiative] over [timeframe]."
  3. "What financial framing will resonate most with our CFO when requesting headcount for [team]?"
  4. "Model the payback period for automating [process] versus continuing to staff it manually."

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.
