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 | $0.00055 | $0.00410 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00028 | $0.00205 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00011 | $0.00082 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00041 |
Grade A, and why
02-backlog 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 yesterday.
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.

Actions
Run the flow above. Read only the next action file.
| Action | Does |
|---|---|
| inspect | resolve the scope, event, and authority |
| triage | classify intake and detect existing work |
| review | find actionable backlog health improvements |
| route | delegate proposed artifact changes |
| assess | challenge refinement from three viewpoints |
| decide | reconcile proposals and confirm authority |
| apply | delegate authorized writes |
| verify | prove the resulting graph is coherent |
Transversal rules
- Keep product, lifecycle, and backlog decisions with the user.
- Delegate artifact work to its owning capability, resolved by purpose and verified as installed before delegating.
- Store each relation once, in its owning artifact.
- Ask natural questions; never expose internal routes, checks, or unchanged state.
- Change only authorized artifacts and fields.
What ships with it
14 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

02-backlog is a skill published in the GitHub repository ai-driven-dev/framework (453 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 55 tokens to every session and 410 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-09-03.
