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

episode-summary-writer 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 1mo 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.

Episode Summary Writer

What This Skill Does

Writes concise episode summaries in three lengths — platform short (100 words), directory standard (150 words), and promotional long (250 words) — for podcast directories, promotional emails, and social bios.

When To Use This Skill

  • You need summaries in multiple lengths because different platforms (Apple Podcasts, Spotify, newsletter, social bio) have different character limits
  • You want an episode summary that functions as a promotional pitch rather than a transcript excerpt
  • Your current episode descriptions are too detailed and not driving listens from new audiences
  • You want to repurpose a finished episode with a short description suitable for a social post or newsletter teaser

What You Need To Provide

Required: Episode title; a 4–8 sentence description of what the episode covers (or key points from the transcript) Optional: Guest name and one-sentence bio; the single most memorable moment, quote, or insight from the episode; target new audience versus regular listener framing; show name for attribution; primary keyword

How the Assistant Approaches This

  1. Identifies the listener value proposition — not what the episode is about, but what the listener will get from it
  2. Writes the shortest version first (100 words): a hook sentence, the core content in 2–3 sentences, and a clear reason to listen now
  3. Expands to 150 words for directory standard by adding guest context and one concrete detail that signals depth
  4. Writes the 250-word promotional version with a stronger hook, more content detail, and a closing sentence that creates urgency or emotional resonance
  5. Reviews all three for tone consistency and ensures none repeat the same language
  6. After the three summaries, provides a "Next Step" note specifying which version to paste where — platform short into Spotify/Apple, directory standard into the hosting platform episode page, promotional into the newsletter or social post — and whether show-notes-generator or newsletter-teaser-writer should be run for additional distribution assets

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.
