A text-editing command that removes common AI-sounding phrases, corporate buzzwords, hedging, and repetitive writing patterns. It saves a revised copy instead of replacing the original.

Use it on a Markdown file to create a human-sounding version and a change log describing the edits.

It helps make drafts sound more direct, conversational, and personal without losing the original file.

Per session 13 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.

When invoked 495 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.

Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00013	$0.00495
Opus 5.5	$0.00005	$0.00198
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00003	$0.00099
Haiku 4.5	$0.00001	$0.00049

Security

Grade A, and why

de-ai 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 2mo 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.

Changes

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.
