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 | $0.00380 | $0.00380 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00190 | $0.00190 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00076 | $0.00076 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00038 | $0.00038 |
Grade A, and why
riper-sigma-core 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 3d 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.

σ₄.Ω_current ∈ [Ω₁..Ω₅] FLOW: Ω₁→Ω₂→Ω₃→Ω₄→Ω₅ ENFORCE: current==agent_mode
Memory Protocol
σ₁: brief | σ₂: patterns | σ₃: tech σ₄: context+STATE | σ₅: progress | σ₆: protection
Handoff Protocol

Session Protocol
SESSION: @σ₄.Ω_session (maintained across modes) LOCK: σ₄.locked_by (prevent concurrent updates)
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.

riper-sigma-core is a cursor rule published in the GitHub repository johnpeterman72/CursorRIPER.agent (15 stars, last pushed 1y ago), licensed MIT. It adds 380 tokens to every session, about $0.0019 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.
