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.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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 | $0.00237 | $0.00237 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00118 | $0.00118 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00047 | $0.00047 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00024 | $0.00024 |
Grade A, and why
040-quality 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.
What it actually says
040-quality
Purpose
Enforce repeatable, command-backed validation and consistency checks before review/readiness declarations.
Mandatory policy
- Run relevant quality checks before declaring work ready for review.
- Require stricter validation for high-impact changes: dependencies, APIs, environment behavior, or major multi-file edits.
- Do not mark work complete without corresponding validation evidence, as
required by
.cursor/rules/020-execution.mdc. - Keep implementation,
ROADMAP.md, and key docs in sync, includingdocs/File-Structure-Reference.mdanddocs/Project-Constraints.md. - Do not apply broad quality-driven rewrites without explicit user approval.
Integration points
- Governance authority:
.cursor/rules/010-governance.mdc - Execution lifecycle:
.cursor/rules/020-execution.mdc - Safety constraints:
.cursor/rules/030-safety.mdc - Project constraints:
.cursor/rules/050-project-constraints.mdc
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.

040-quality is a cursor rule published in the GitHub repository Tholem-AI/Tholem-Cursor-Kit (4 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 237 tokens to every session, about $0.0012 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.
