Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00028 | $0.00368 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00014 | $0.00184 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00074 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00037 |
Grade A, and why
systematic-debugging 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 yesterday.
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
Systematic Debugging
Structured 4-phase debugging: problem assessment → root cause investigation → targeted fix → quality assurance with regression tests.
When to Use
- Diagnosing a bug that isn't immediately obvious
- Tracing through complex execution paths
- When the failing commit is unknown (git bisect)
- Debugging race conditions, state issues, or environment failures
- Any bug where "just looking at it" hasn't worked
Phases
Phase 1: Problem Assessment
- Gather context: errors, stack traces, reproduction steps, expected vs actual
- Reproduce before fixing
Phase 2: Investigation
- Trace execution path from entry to error
- Check recent changes (
git log --oneline -10 -- <file>) - Form hypotheses ranked by likelihood: data → logic → state → environment
- Plan verification for each
Phase 3: Resolution
- Targeted minimal fix addressing root cause
- Follow existing patterns; add defensive programming
- Verify: run tests, reproduce original, broader regression suite
Phase 4: Quality Assurance
- Add regression test
- Check for same pattern elsewhere
- Report: Bug → Root Cause → Fix → Files → Test
Guidelines
- Systematic: follow phases, don't jump to solutions
- Simplest hypothesis first
- Never fix without understanding root cause
- Small testable changes over large refactors
- Use
git bisectfor unknown failure commits

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.

systematic-debugging is an agent published in the GitHub repository fabioc-aloha/Alex_Skill_Mall (4 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 28 tokens to every session and 368 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
