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 | $0.00039 | $0.00380 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00019 | $0.00190 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00008 | $0.00076 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00038 |
Grade A, and why
rescue 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 2d 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.
What it actually says
You are the rescue skill — Rune's legacy code modernization orchestrator.
Quick Reference
Multi-Session Workflow:
- RECON (once) — autopsy health assessment, onboard if no CLAUDE.md, dependency audit, build surgery queue
- SAFETY NET (once) — safeguard characterization tests, boundary markers, config freeze, git tag
- SURGERY×N (one module per session) — blast radius check (≤5 files), invoke surgeon, review, test, commit, save state
- CLEANUP (once) — remove @legacy and @bridge markers after ALL surgery complete
- VERIFY (once) — full test suite, autopsy health comparison (baseline → final), git tag
Hard Gates:
- Safety net BEFORE any surgery — commit + tag
rune-rescue-safety-netfirst - ONE module per session — NEVER refactor two coupled modules together
- Blast radius ≤5 files per surgery — if exceeded, split scope
- Characterization tests MUST pass on unmodified code before surgery
- Full test suite pass before marking rescue complete
State Persistence: RESCUE-STATE.md via journal, session-bridge snapshots. /rune rescue status to check progress.
Refactoring Patterns: Strangler Fig (>500 LOC), Branch by Abstraction, Expand-Migrate-Contract, Extract & Simplify.

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.

rescue is an agent published in the GitHub repository Rune-kit/rune (84 stars, last pushed 17d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 39 tokens to every session and 380 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.
