stoic-mode-commands

A set of commands for running board-meeting rehearsals, where an AI takes on board-member roles and questions an entrepreneur's presentation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to start a board simulation, choose a skeptical or specialist persona, and practise several rounds of challenging questions and answers.
Why use it?
It helps reveal weak arguments and unanswered questions before a real board meeting.

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.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

stoic-mode-commands 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 3d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 200 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/stoic

Stoic mode adds a philosophical depth layer to all system responses. It does not alter what frameworks are applied, which diagnostics run, or which playbooks execute. It changes how their outputs are framed, contextualized, and delivered — through the lens of Stoic philosophy.

The analytical engine remains identical. The philosophical engine activates alongside it.


/stoic on

Description

Activates Stoic mode for the current session and all future sessions until explicitly deactivated. Writes stoic_mode: true to the memory identity layer. The orchestrator-agent loads .claude/stoic-mode/STOIC-MODE.md into its active context and applies .claude/stoic-mode/stoic-response-rules.yaml to all subsequent outputs.

Syntax

/stoic on

No parameters. No flags.

What Changes

Layer Change
Skills Stoic Reflection paragraph added to every skill output. Dichotomy of control applied. Anti-patterns framed through cardinal virtues.
Diagnostics Pre-triage control question added. Post-diagnosis framed through Stoic acceptance.
Playbooks Stoic checkpoint at each gate. Decision points evaluated through virtue ethics.
Output Templates "Stoic Reflection" section appended. Risk sections reframed as Premeditatio Malorum. Recommendations close with agency reminder.
Memory stoic_mode: true persisted. Decision history includes stoic_reflection field.
Voice Adversity framed as material. Success framed as temporary. Uncertainty framed as normal. Failure framed as information.

What Does NOT Change

  • Framework rigor and analytical precision
  • Data, metrics, and quantitative assessments
  • Strategic recommendations
  • Prohibited phrases rules
  • Hook routing and diagnostic triage logic

Confirmation Message

On activation, the system responds:

Stoic mode active. As Epictetus observed: "It is not things that disturb us, but our judgments about things." Your analyses will now distinguish between the two.

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.
