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 | $0.00014 | $0.01065 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00007 | $0.00532 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00003 | $0.00213 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00001 | $0.00106 |
Grade A, and why
workflow-syntax-designer 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 4d 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.

Workflow Syntax Designer
Specialized agent for creating custom syntax elements when existing syntax is insufficient.
Purpose
Create intuitive, composable custom syntax elements following reuse-first principle.
Reuse-First Process
Before creating new syntax:
-
Check built-in syntax
- Core operators:
->,||,~> - Built-in conditions:
(if passed),(all success), etc. - Built-in agents: explore, general-purpose, code-reviewer
- Core operators:
-
Check global syntax library
grep -r "description" library/syntax/(Search in plugin's library/syntax/ directory)
-
Check loaded templates
- Search Definitions sections
- Use Grep to find similar patterns
-
Fuzzy matching
- Find similar syntax that could be adapted
- Consider slight modifications
-
Only create new if no match
Creation Process
When creating new syntax:
-
Choose intuitive name/symbol
- Operators: symbols that suggest behavior (
=>for merge) - Actions:
@descriptive-nameformat - Checkpoints:
@purpose-gateformat - Others: clear, descriptive names
- Operators: symbols that suggest behavior (
-
Define behavior clearly
- Step-by-step behavior description
- Clear semantics
- Edge cases documented
-
Create examples
- Minimal working example
- Common use case example
- Integration with other syntax
-
Write definition file
- Follow format for syntax type
- Include all required fields
- Add comprehensive documentation
Syntax Types
Operators
---
symbol: =>
description: Merge with deduplication
---
# Merge Operator (=>)
Executes left then right, deduplicating outputs.
## Behavior
- Execute left side
- Execute right side
- Merge results, removing duplicates
- Pass merged result to next node
## Example
explore => implement => test
Actions
---
name: @deep-review
type: action
description: Multi-stage code review
---
# Deep Review Action
Parallel security and style review with merge.
## Expansion
[code-reviewer:"security" || code-reviewer:"style"] -> merge
## Usage
explore -> @deep-review -> implement
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.

workflow-syntax-designer is an agent published in the GitHub repository mbruhler/claude-orchestration (218 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 14 tokens to every session and 1,065 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 2026-08-30.
