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 | $0.00156 | $0.01427 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00078 | $0.00714 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00031 | $0.00285 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00016 | $0.00143 |
Grade A, and why
aid-design 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 8d 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 — 120 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Design (produce a kept design, resolve nothing)
/aid-design produces a design artifact meant to be kept and built -- distinct from
/aid-prototype, whose model is throwaway and only validates a direction. Pin the
distinction: prototype = throwaway, to validate; design = kept, to inform the build.
It fills the DESIGN lite gap (DESIGN is a task type, but there was no lite entry point).
- Boundary vs
/aid-create-document:aid-designproduces the design (aid-architect, DESIGN);aid-documentwrites documentation about something (aid-tech-writer, DOCUMENT). A design needing a formal written spec -> print a handoff to/aid-create-document. - Not a numbered pipeline phase; does not route to
/aid-execute.
State machine: INTAKE -> DESIGN -> VERIFY (loop) -> PRESENT [user decides] -> HANDOFF? ->
DONE. Print the [State: NAME] -- {purpose} entry line on each state.
State: INTAKE
- Require a subject. Empty argument -> ask one bootstrapping question ("What do you want designed, and what will it need to support?") and wait.
- Pick the path: Fast -- a clear thing to design ("design the checkout flow", "design this service's interface") -> design now. Guided -- open-ended ("design our onboarding") -> scope the subject, constraints, and success criteria first.
- Classify complexity (model + effort): simple (one component/flow) ->
aid-architectat sonnet / medium; complex (a system architecture, a multi-screen flow) -> opus / high. Verifier tier >= producer tier. - Consult the Work Initiation Gate, then allocate the work folder + STATE. First run
the gate (
.claude/aid/templates/work-initiation-gate.md):bash .claude/aid/scripts/works/enumerate-works.sh(main tree + every git worktree). Empty -> allocate, no prompt. Works exist -> ask new-vs-continuation; on continuation route to the chosen work's resume door and STOP (allocate nothing); on new work: create and enter the worktree per the gate's§ 3astep 2 (worktree-lifecycle.sh create <work-id> <name>, STOP on a non-zero exit or empty path, else enter the resolved path), then allocate (pipeline.path: lite,initiator: aid-design,lifecycle: Running,active_skill: aid-design;phasenot driven).
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-design is a skill published in the GitHub repository AndreVianna/aid-methodology (5 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 156 tokens to every session and 1,427 once invoked, about $0.0008 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.
