swot

swot is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from tupe12334/instinct. It costs 22 tokens per session (1,597 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A structured way to assess a project, organisation, or idea through strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. The first two are internal factors, while the last two come from the outside environment.

In plain words
What is it for?
Reviewing an organisation, product, project, or plan before making strategic decisions.
Why use it?
It gives a clear view of what is working, what is missing, and what could help or cause problems. This makes strategic discussion more specific.

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

swot 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 4d 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.

SWOT Analysis

Overview

Structured strategic assessment across four dimensions:

              HELPFUL           HARMFUL
         ┌──────────────┬──────────────────┐
INTERNAL │  STRENGTHS   │   WEAKNESSES     │
         │  (leverage)  │   (address)      │
         ├──────────────┼──────────────────┤
EXTERNAL │ OPPORTUNITIES│    THREATS       │
         │  (exploit)   │   (mitigate)     │
         └──────────────┴──────────────────┘
  • Internal factors: within your control (Strengths, Weaknesses)
  • External factors: in the environment (Opportunities, Threats)

Dimension Definitions

Strengths (Internal, Helpful)

Competitive advantages and capabilities you possess:

  • Resources, skills, IP, brand, relationships
  • What you do better than competitors
  • What others see as your advantage

Weaknesses (Internal, Harmful)

Limitations that put you at a disadvantage:

  • Gaps in capability, resources, or knowledge
  • What competitors do better
  • Factors that limit your options

Opportunities (External, Helpful)

External conditions you can exploit:

  • Market trends, regulatory changes, competitor weaknesses
  • Unmet customer needs
  • Emerging technologies

Threats (External, Harmful)

External conditions that could harm you:

  • Competitor actions, market shifts, regulation
  • Economic downturns, supply chain risk
  • Disruptive technologies

How to Apply

Step 1 — Define scope

What are you analyzing? (Company, product, career, decision, project)

Step 2 — Brainstorm each quadrant

For each dimension, generate 3–7 specific, concrete items. Avoid vague generalities ("good team" → "senior engineering team with 5 years avg domain experience").

Step 3 — Prioritize within quadrants

Rank items by impact. Top 3 per quadrant is ideal for focus.

Step 4 — Cross-analyze (TOWS)

The real value: match quadrants to generate strategic options.

Opportunities Threats
Strengths SO: Use strengths to exploit opportunities ST: Use strengths to counter threats
Weaknesses WO: Fix weaknesses to capture opportunities WT: Minimize weaknesses, avoid threats

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.
