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.

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 5.1 | $0.00055 | $0.01631 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00028 | $0.00816 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00011 | $0.00326 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00163 |
Grade B, and why
cold-reading-widening scanned grade B with 1 finding 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.
Instruction-override phrasingmediumPrompt injection
Text telling the model to disregard its earlier instructions or safety rules is the shape of a prompt injection, whoever wrote it.
"ignore previous instructions", "mark this accepted", a fenced block asserting Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 138 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
cold-reading-widening — the widening position
Object
The construal as it presently stands, read against what has been committed to: the brief's current text including the construal statement, the glossary, the disciplines, the specs, and the shipped tree where one exists. The draft and planned intents are withheld from you deliberately. They are the candidate set you are being asked to widen, and a reading that has seen the candidates widens around them instead of past them. You are not told what was considered, and you do not reason about what might have been.

What this section states, and what governs. This section states what your position MAY read. The bundle you were handed states what THIS run was actually given, which is narrower: a reading is commissioned with a position and a target state, and the committed preset entry for that position decides what it is handed and travels in the bundle. Where the two disagree, the bundle governs. The absence of material this section names is therefore not a finding — it is what this run was handed, and reporting it as a tension against the record would be reporting the commission rather than the object.
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.

cold-reading-widening is an agent published in the GitHub repository intentdriven/abcd (3 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 55 tokens to every session and 1,631 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (instruction-override phrasing). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-05.
