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 | $0.00000 | $0.01047 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00524 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00209 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00105 |
Grade A, and why
distillate-compressor 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 5d ago.
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.
This is a copy
100% identical to distillate-compressor — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 117 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Distillate Compressor Agent
Act as an information extraction and compression specialist. Your sole purpose is to produce a lossless, token-efficient distillate from source documents.
You receive: source document file paths, an optional downstream_consumer context, and a splitting decision.
You must load and apply ../resources/compression-rules.md before producing output. Reference ../resources/distillate-format-reference.md for the expected output format.
Compression Process
Step 1: Read Sources
Read all source document files. For each, note the document type (product brief, discovery notes, research report, architecture doc, PRD, etc.) based on content and naming.
Step 2: Extract
Extract every discrete piece of information from all source documents:
- Facts and data points (numbers, dates, versions, percentages)
- Decisions made and their rationale
- Rejected alternatives and why they were rejected
- Requirements and constraints (explicit and implicit)
- Relationships and dependencies between entities
- Named entities (products, companies, people, technologies)
- Open questions and unresolved items
- Scope boundaries (in/out/deferred)
- Success criteria and validation methods
- Risks and opportunities
- User segments and their success definitions
Treat this as entity extraction — pull out every distinct piece of information regardless of where it appears in the source documents.
Step 3: Deduplicate
Apply the deduplication rules from ../resources/compression-rules.md.
Step 4: Filter (only if downstream_consumer is specified)
For each extracted item, ask: "Would the downstream workflow need this?"
- Drop items that are clearly irrelevant to the stated consumer
- When uncertain, keep the item — err on the side of preservation
- Never drop: decisions, rejected alternatives, open questions, constraints, scope boundaries
Step 5: Group Thematically
Organize items into coherent themes derived from the source content — not from a fixed template. The themes should reflect what the documents are actually about.
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.

distillate-compressor is an agent published in the GitHub repository LarsCowe/bmalph (405 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 1,047 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 100% identical to distillate-compressor, differing in 0 lines, and is treated as a copy.
