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 | $0.00000 | $0.00611 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00244 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00122 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00061 |
Grade B, and why
design scanned grade B with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Reads agent configuration directoriesmediumAgent snooping
.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.
SESSION_DIR=$(cat .claude/artifacts/current.txt) How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 102 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Create a technical design grounded in live documentation research.
Prerequisites
Check that a session exists:
# Read current session
if [ ! -f ".claude/artifacts/current.txt" ]; then
echo "ERROR: No active session. Run /arm first."
exit 1
fi
SESSION_DIR=$(cat .claude/artifacts/current.txt)
if [ ! -f "$SESSION_DIR/brief.md" ]; then
echo "ERROR: No brief.md found in $SESSION_DIR. Run /arm first."
exit 1
fi
If no session exists, stop and tell the user to run /arm <task> first.
Technical Design
Use the architect agent.
Input: Read brief.md from the current session directory.
Process:
- Extract key requirements and technology keywords from the brief
- Research live documentation via WebSearch and WebFetch:
- For each library/API mentioned, find current best practices
- Get specific API patterns, configuration options, gotchas
- Note the URLs and relevant quotes
- Analyze existing codebase patterns via Glob/Grep/Read:
- How does RDO already handle similar features?
- What patterns should we follow for consistency?
- Make design decisions:
- Each decision must cite live docs OR existing codebase
- Document alternatives considered and why rejected
- Define component interfaces, data models, API contracts
- Output
design.mdto the session directory
Documentation Research Guidelines
For each technology decision:
- Search:
[technology] documentation 2024or[library] best practices - Fetch: Read the actual docs page, not just search results
- Extract: Specific recommendations, code patterns, warnings
- Cite: Include URL and relevant quote in the design

**Decision:** Use React Query's `staleTime` of 5 minutes for company data.
**Source:** https://tanstack.com/query/latest/docs/framework/react/guides/important-defaults
> "staleTime defaults to 0, meaning queries will be considered stale immediately"
We set 5 minutes because company data changes infrequently.
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.

design is a command published in the GitHub repository TheAstrelo/Claude-Pipeline (47 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 611 tokens. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (reads agent configuration directories). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
Other commands, from other repositories
scout-meta-review
Run an interactive Scout meta-review — a system-level audit that sits above the individual session types. Checks whether sessions are running, mistake audit is trending well, proposals are flowing, KB files are healthy, and data-source coverage is consistent across session types. Runs in the current conversation.
scout-work
Interactive work session — walks through today's actionable items one at a time, presents a recommended action with draft content, and executes each one only with explicit approval. Runs in the current conversation (not as a background session).
pause
Checkpoint the ticket in play so it can be resumed later.
audit
Audit closed tickets for regressions against today's code (unchanged, evolved, implemented wrong, not implemented), plus duplicate and groupable open ones.
dashboard
Show the repo dashboard: the pinned index of every open map, the whiteboard, and live counts.
split
Split an oversized ticket into children and supersede it.
