What it does

Pricing Strategy is an agent skill from freekmurze/dotfiles. When the user wants help with pricing decisions, packaging, or monetization strategy. Also use when the user mentions 'pricing,' 'pricing tiers,' 'freemium,' 'free trial,' 'packaging,' 'price increase,' 'value metric,' 'Van Westendorp,' 'willingness to pay,' or 'monetization.' This skill covers pricing research, tier structure, and packaging strategy.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including reference files (for example `references/research-methods.md` and `references/tier-structure.md`).

It sits in Sales & Support, covering Pricing strategy.

When your agent uses it

  • Wants help with pricing decisions
  • Monetization strategy
  • The user mentions pricing
  • Willingness to pay

Example prompts

  • “pricing,”
  • “pricing tiers,”
  • “freemium,”
  • “/pricing-strategy”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Business Context
  2. Value & Competition
  3. Current Performance
  4. Goals

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8874280. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Pricing Strategy loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs, and up to ~4.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 93 tokens; SKILL.md has 769 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~93
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.6k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~4.5k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
