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 | $0.00024 | $0.02291 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00012 | $0.01145 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00005 | $0.00458 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00229 |
Grade A, and why
refresh 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 — 151 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
PACT Refresh Protocol
Reset the context window mid-workstream without losing state. Refresh harvests pending knowledge, persists a resumable checkpoint to the session journal, shuts down teammates, and stands by for the user to run /compact (canonical) and then /PACT:bootstrap. The workstream CONTINUES after the reset — nothing is closed, merged, or cleaned up.
Cross-reference: For a PR-open pause with later resumption, see pause.md. For end-of-session cleanup and close, see wrap-up.md.
When to Use / When NOT
| Command | Purpose | Workstream state after |
|---|---|---|
/PACT:pause |
PR open, resume the review later | Paused (PR open) |
/PACT:wrap-up |
End-of-session cleanup + close | Ended |
/PACT:refresh |
Mid-workstream context checkpoint | Active — continues after /compact + /PACT:bootstrap |
Use refresh when the context window is near exhaustion while work is still mid-flight — for example CODE complete but TEST pending, a live HALT/algedonic signal, or worktrees holding unmerged commits. No orchestration retrospective runs (the arc is mid-flight, not ending); /PACT:pin-memory is optional; the harvest and its drain confirmation are MANDATORY.
Constraints (apply to every step)
- LEAD-FRAME-ONLY: every step that spawns, stops, or messages teammates runs in the lead frame. The team roster is flat — teammates cannot spawn or stop teammates.
- Never clean worktrees, branches, or commits. Verification is read-only; the workstream continues after the reset.
- Never complete or delete tasks — the feature task, phase tasks, and any HALT/algedonic signal tasks must survive for resume.
- Never write under
{config_dir}/pact-refresh/. That directory is legacy state from a removed subsystem; checkpoint state lives ONLY in the session journal.{config_dir}is this session's Claude config root — the value of$CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIRwhen set and non-empty, otherwise$HOME/.claude. Read it off an absolute path the platform already injected into your context — your plugin root is{config_dir}/plugins/…— rather than shelling out for the variable. Substitute it before running any command; never assume~/.claude.
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.

refresh is a command published in the GitHub repository Synaptic-Labs-AI/PACT-Plugin (71 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 24 tokens to every session and 2,291 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
