A planning tool for changing the behavior of an existing internal code artifact under new acceptance criteria. It creates a specification and reviewable tasks, then stops for approval.

Use it to define acceptance criteria, specify a code change, and break implementation into tasks for review.

It turns a known behavior change into a structured plan before implementation begins. This makes the requested outcome and checks clear to reviewers.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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	$0.00078	$0.00366
Opus 5.5	$0.00031	$0.00146
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00016	$0.00073
Haiku 4.5	$0.00008	$0.00037

Security

Grade A, and why

aid-update 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 26d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

77% identical to aid-create-api — 18 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

Shortcut: update

Bind VERB=update, ARTIFACT="" (bare verb), then run the shared engine at .aid/runtime/templates/shortcut-engine.md. The engine scaffolds the flattened Lite work (feature-001 structure) and authors exactly two documents: REQUIREMENTS.md, whose § 11 feature section carries the technical specification and whose § 9 carries the gate criteria, and the task DETAIL.md files -- with reduced capture. One feature and one delivery means there is nothing to sequence, so no plan is written and the execution graph is derived from each task's **Depends on:** field. It runs the per-document Grading Gates (feature-004) and halts at the FR-10 approval gate. It never executes. This shortcut's default_type/group are its row in .aid/runtime/templates/shortcut-catalog.yml.

Changes

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.
