Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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 | $0.00088 | $0.02165 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00044 | $0.01082 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00018 | $0.00433 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00216 |
Grade A, and why
aid-config 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 12d 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 — 201 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AID Project Configuration
/aid-config reads and writes .aid/settings.yml — the single source of truth
for AID pipeline settings (grades, heartbeat, project identity).
Two modes, nothing else.
| Invocation | What it does |
|---|---|
/aid-config |
Show all settings as a table. On first run (no settings.yml), copy the template into place first, then show. |
/aid-config <key> |
Show the current value of <key>; prompt for new (with suggestions + always a free-form option); validate; write in place. |
Examples: /aid-config name, /aid-config minimum_grade,
/aid-config source_control.
Pre-flight

DefaultorAuto-accept edits→ proceed - ❌
Plan mode→ STOP. This skill writes files.
Mode 1 — Show all settings (/aid-config)
Step 1: Ensure .aid/settings.yml exists
If .aid/settings.yml is missing:
- Create
.aid/directory if absent (do NOT touch.aid/knowledge/or other subdirs). - Copy
.claude/aid/templates/settings.yml→.aid/settings.ymlverbatim. - Print:
Created .aid/settings.yml from template.
Step 2: Render the table
Read .aid/settings.yml. Print a table with these columns:
Key | Value
Order: name, description, type, source_control, minimum_grade, heartbeat_interval.
If any value matches a <placeholder> pattern (e.g., <project-name>), append ⚠ unset after the value.
Step 3: Suggest commands for unset values + the general update form
After the table, ALWAYS print the line:
Run /aid-config <key> to update any value.
If ANY rows were marked ⚠ unset, ALSO emit a copy-pasteable command per unset row, so the user can act without having to assemble the key themselves:
N values unset. To set them:
/aid-config name
/aid-config description
Exit. No prompt; no further interaction.
Mode 2 — View/update one key (/aid-config <key>)
Step 1: Validate the key argument
Accepted keys:
namedescriptiontypesource_controlminimum_gradeheartbeat_interval
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.

aid-config is a skill published in the GitHub repository AndreVianna/aid-methodology (5 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 88 tokens to every session and 2,165 once invoked, about $0.0004 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.
