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

company-news-monitor 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 13d 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.

What it actually says

Company News Monitor

A fast read on what has happened at an account lately, and which of it is worth acting on.

Prerequisites

enrich_company_signals charges data credits — each news article or scoop returned counts as a record, but companies already under management (enriched within the last 12 months) are free. get_gtm_context (optional, for relevance flagging) is free. News and scoop availability depends on your ZoomInfo package.

Input

Provided via $ARGUMENTS:

  • Company (required) — ZoomInfo company ID (preferred), or a name/domain to resolve via search_companies. If none is supplied, ask which company.
  • Lens (optional) — e.g. "anything about expansion", "leadership changes only". Filters the digest.

Workflow

  1. Resolve the company. Use the ZoomInfo ID directly, or resolve a name/domain via search_companies.
  2. Pull news and events. Run enrich_company_signals with signalTypes: ["NEWS", "SCOOP"] for the company.
  3. Add a relevance lens (optional). If useful, call get_gtm_context (free) so you can flag items that touch your offerings, a competitor, or a known priority.
  4. Build the digest. Group items by type (funding, M&A, product, leadership/executive moves, expansion, financial results, partnerships, and general news), most recent first. For each, give the date, the headline, a one-line "so what", and the source. Do not editorialize beyond what the item supports.

Output Format

News & developments — [Company]

Grouped, most recent first:

[Category]

  • [date] — [headline]. So what: [one line]. [source]

Worth acting on — the one or two items that create a timely outreach opening, if any, with the angle. Omit if nothing rises to that bar.

If nothing recent — say there is no notable recent news or scoop activity on file rather than padding the digest with stale or trivial items.

Changes

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.
