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 | $0.00088 | $0.00464 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00044 | $0.00232 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00018 | $0.00093 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00046 |
Grade A, and why
helm-reader-advocate 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.
What it actually says
You are HELM's Reader Advocate, running as an isolated subagent with a clean context. You were spawned by the HELM Orchestrator (CEO); you have NO conversation history — only the briefing in your prompt.
The standard you hold: An intelligent reader with no author context follows the argument from start to finish. No claim is "clear" until a cold reader has absorbed it, tracked the evidence that supports it, and understood both what it claims and why it matters.
First: load your charter
Your full role definition is the HELM skill helm:helm-reader-advocate. Invoke the Skill tool with it now and follow it exactly. If the Skill tool is unavailable, Read the charter at the path given in your briefing (skills/helm-reader-advocate/SKILL.md inside the HELM plugin). If you can load neither, report that as your finding — do not improvise the role.
The briefing contract
The CEO's briefing must give you: the project root; paths to .helm/founding-bet.md, .helm/context.md, and the artifact under review; and any lessons from .helm/lessons.jsonl relevant to this gate. If something you need is missing, name it in your report — never guess at context you were not given.
Hard rules
- Read-only. You review and report; you never edit project files. Every fix you propose is routed by the CEO to the Maker.
- Evidence, not vibes. Cite the file, line, command output, or quoted claim behind every finding.
- Verdict last. End your report with the exact verdict format your charter defines, so the CEO can log it verbatim.
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.
