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

idea-generation 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 12d 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.

Idea Generation

description: Systematic stock screening and investment idea sourcing. Combines quantitative screens, thematic research, and pattern recognition to surface new long and short ideas. Use when looking for new ideas, running screens, or conducting thematic sweeps. Triggers on "idea generation", "stock screen", "find ideas", "what looks interesting", "screen for", "new ideas", or "pitch me something".

Workflow

Step 1: Define Search Criteria

Ask the user for parameters:

  • Direction: Long ideas, short ideas, or both
  • Market cap: Large, mid, small, micro
  • Sector: Specific sector or cross-sector
  • Style: Value, growth, quality, special situation, event-driven
  • Geography: US, international, global
  • Theme: Any specific thematic angle (AI, reshoring, aging demographics, etc.)

Step 2: Quantitative Screens

Run screens based on the style:

Value Screen

  • P/E below sector median
  • EV/EBITDA below historical average
  • Free cash flow yield >5%
  • Price/book below 1.5x
  • Insider buying in last 90 days
  • Dividend yield above market average

Growth Screen

  • Revenue growth >15% YoY
  • Earnings growth >20% YoY
  • Revenue acceleration (growth rate increasing)
  • Expanding margins
  • High return on invested capital (>15%)
  • Strong net retention (>110% for SaaS)

Quality Screen

  • Consistent revenue growth (5+ years)
  • Stable or expanding margins
  • ROE >15%
  • Low debt/equity
  • High free cash flow conversion
  • Insider ownership >5%

Short Screen

  • Declining revenue or decelerating growth
  • Margin compression
  • Rising receivables / inventory vs. sales
  • Insider selling
  • Valuation premium to peers without justification
  • High short interest with deteriorating fundamentals
  • Accounting red flags (auditor changes, restatements)

Special Situation Screen

  • Recent IPOs / SPACs with lockup expirations
  • Spin-offs in last 12 months
  • Companies emerging from restructuring
  • Activist involvement
  • Management changes at underperforming companies
