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 5.1 | $0.00085 | $0.00085 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00034 | $0.00034 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00017 | $0.00017 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00009 |
Grade A, and why
commit-message-guidelines 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 1mo 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.

What it actually says
description: Provides guidelines for creating conventional commit messages, ensuring they adhere to a specific format and are concise. globs: *
- Always suggest a conventional commit with a type and optional scope in lowercase letters.
- Keep the commit message concise and within 60 characters.
- Ensure the commit message is ready to be pasted into the terminal without further editing.
- Provide the full command to commit, not just the message.
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.
