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 | $0.00000 | $0.00657 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00329 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00131 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00066 |
Grade A, and why
method 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 70 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
/method
Purpose
/method is the sonic methodology command. It turns a listening situation into a research and agent-handoff plan: which ears to use, which evidence is available, which claims are permitted, which references matter, and what another agent or app should do next.
When To Use
Use /method for:
- research design and artistic research
- listening practice design
- essays, theses, workshops, fieldwork plans, and project methods
- agentic workflow planning
- routing sonic tasks into other apps, agents, datasets, or frameworks
- deciding whether the next step should be technical, perceptual, voice, audiovisual, access, field, forensic, political, fictional, or reference work
Skills Called

Execution Order
- Run
akouo-routerto identify evidence, risk, command route, primary mode, secondary mode, and corrective mode. - Run
acoulogical-object-listeningto keep method grounded in the object rather than abstract theory. - Run
critical-political-listeningto audit power, access, extraction, archive, labor, platform, and institutional stakes. - Run
accessibility-normative-listeningto name implied listener, alternate access path, and missing testing. - Run
reference-layerto map concepts, methods, traditions, cautions, research routes, and adjacent modes. - Synthesize as an operational plan for the next agentic workflow.
Expected Output
Use schemas/command-output.schema.json.
The output must include:
- evidence inventory
- permitted and forbidden claim types
- proposed mode chain
- methodology, references, and cautions
- access requirements
- handoff notes for another agent, app, or framework
- recommended next mode or command
When the receiving system supports expanded routing plans, carry them in the optional routing_plan field (schemas/routing-plan.schema.json); the reference app emits this for /method so the handoff includes evidence level, claim permissions, and stop conditions.
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.

method is a command published in the GitHub repository sonicfieldlabs/akouo (10 stars, last pushed 21d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 657 tokens. 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 2026-08-31.
