I've a very dim memory of having heard about it years ago (more than a decades), from an article of Cory Doctorow, and in my mind, he was the one who came up with the idea (and chose the letters TK).
But I can be wrong (maybe it's not from Doctorow, maybe the article did not even claim the paternity of coming up with TK but it was me badly understanding it, ...)
I do this a lot but I use “TK:” with the colon to make it unambiguously grep-able (stands out better visually too)

LLMs should use "TK" or stable diffusion (and the like) so as not to get hung up on sequential words/thoughts and fill them in later instead of hallucinating filler.

I think this is a great idea.

Could you instead use any two numerical digits? Then you've got a tagging system with up to 100 tags.
This assumes you're writing according to guidelines that insist you spell out all numbers. i.e. 58 is always intentionally "fifty-eight", so "58" must be your own meta text.

I think you can use whatever you want. The point is just to drop a quick marker that you can find later, and not interrupt your flow.

tl;dr
add tk when you hit a wall (abbreviated from 'to come', yet spelled with k as tc appears in many words)

I found the low frequency surprising as it's so easy to pronounce--I suppose tc is used in most cases. Here's what I found for bigram freqs near TK:
Every other one here I'd expect to see: Postgres, kk/okay (and my initials), headquarters, function. Of course there's Tcl/Tk but not used nearly as much as it could.
