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

Capital Markets Closing Checklist 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 9d 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.

Capital Markets Closing Checklist

Purpose

Organize the closing-workstream universe for a capital-markets transaction, from signing through closing, settlement, and any over-allotment closing — covering approvals, agreements, opinions, certificates, comfort, lock-ups, transfer-agent/DTC mechanics, listing and FINRA, blue-sky/Form D, funds flow, and post-closing filings. The skill builds the tracker; the attorney closes each condition. This skill provides draft work product for attorney review only and is not legal advice.

Use When

  • A capital-markets transaction is in execution and the deal team needs the closing workstream organized.
  • An issuer is preparing for an IPO, follow-on, registered direct, ATM, block trade, debt issuance, or private placement and the closing-condition universe needs to be tracked.
  • Outside counsel is taking over a closing in mid-flight and needs the existing closing record audited for completeness.

Required Inputs

  • Jurisdiction and governing law, or [verify jurisdiction].
  • Transaction type (IPO / follow-on / secondary / shelf takedown / private placement / debt issuance / registered direct / ATM / block trade / convertible / PIPE / Rule 144A) supplied by counsel.
  • Agreement type (firm-commitment underwriting / best-efforts placement / private-placement subscription / debt purchase / other).
  • Parties (issuer, selling stockholders, underwriters or placement agents, indenture trustee where applicable).
  • Signing, pricing, and closing dates [deadline verification required].
  • Offering size and structure.
  • Document set: purchase / underwriting agreement (draft or executed), prospectus / offering memorandum, indenture (if debt), lock-up agreements, transfer-agent posture, listing-application posture.
  • Concurrent regulatory items: FINRA review status (where applicable), exchange-listing status, blue-sky/Form D posture, foreign-regulatory posture.

If the transaction type, agreement type, or signing/closing-date inventory is missing, stop substantive analysis and return an intake gap list.

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.
