cast

A command that starts the Transmute software-building pipeline, either from beginning to end or at a selected stage. The pipeline organizes work such as requirements, implementation, audits, documentation, and deployment.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run the full pipeline, resume unfinished work, display help, or start a named stage such as implementation, security, accessibility, or performance.
Why use it?
It gives one entry point for running or resuming the project workflow instead of starting each stage manually.

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

cast 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 — 102 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/transmute — Transmute Pipeline Controller

The user invoked /transmute $ARGUMENTS. Parse the argument $1 to determine the mode.

Mode Detection

Examine $1:

  • Empty, or full: Run the full pipeline via the transmute-pipeline agent
  • resume: Resume the pipeline from the last completed stage via the transmute-pipeline agent
  • help or ?: Display the help text below
  • Any other value: Match against the Stage Name Mapping table and invoke that stage's skill

Execution

Full Pipeline or Resume Mode

Spawn the transmute-pipeline agent using the Agent tool with the appropriate instruction:

  • Full mode: "Run the complete Transmute pipeline from Stage 0 through Stage 9. Read plancasting/_progress.md if it exists to skip already-completed stages."
  • Resume mode: "Resume the Transmute pipeline from the last completed stage. Read plancasting/_progress.md to determine current state."

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.

cast is a command published in the GitHub repository VoxTechnologies/transmute-framework (4 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 11 tokens to every session and 1,171 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 2026-08-31.
