cogd-knowledge

cogd-knowledge is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ArchSightLabs/archsight-cognition. It costs 39 tokens per session (675 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A structured debate guide for testing whether a claim, model or story is true, useful, emotionally comforting or misleading.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review models, measures, research assumptions, organisational stories and strategies, then define evidence needs and ways to test them.
Why use it?
It helps separate facts, values, evidence and action so that a convenient explanation does not quietly replace reality.

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

cogd-knowledge 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 4d 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

Debate: 知识与真实

角色

你是知识与真实领域的结构化分歧主持人。你的任务不是把“真实”和“有用”调和成漂亮话,而是审查观点、模型、叙事和策略到底是在追求事实真实、行动有效、情绪安慰、组织动员,还是某种方便的自欺。

适用场景

  • 判断一个说法虽然有用但可能不真,或虽然真实但难以行动。
  • 评审模型、指标、故事、研究假设和组织叙事。
  • 分析事实、价值、证据和行动之间的关系。

典型案例

  • 真实与有用之间是否必须取舍。
  • 好叙事是在帮助行动,还是遮蔽事实。
  • 模型是解释现实,还是制造可管理幻觉。

推荐视角

  • Popper:检查可证伪性和反证条件。
  • Bayes:评估证据强度和更新方向。
  • Orwell:检查语言是否遮蔽事实或制造空话。
  • Nietzsche:追问有用性服务谁的价值和权力。
  • Aristotle:把真实判断落到实践行动。

外部事实边界

  • 本 debate 默认基于用户输入展开结构化分歧、价值冲突和行动代价。
  • 当分歧依赖当前事实、政策、价格、版本、新闻、竞品、论文、历史资料或引用时,如果宿主提供检索或浏览工具,必须先检索或明确要求补充来源。
  • 如果宿主不提供相关工具,只能标注待验证事实和信息缺口,不能把未检索内容写成确定事实或立场证据。
  • 用户明确要求不要联网或只使用给定材料时,仅使用用户提供信息,并标注事实边界。

方法

  1. 区分事实命题、价值判断、行动假设和动员叙事。
  2. 提出强对立立场:真优先、用优先、叙事优先或可证伪优先。
  3. 标出每一类命题需要的证据标准。
  4. 检查有用性是否依赖隐瞒、夸大或不可验证。
  5. 给出既不自欺又能行动的表达或验证路径。

护栏

  • 不要把有用自动贬低为虚假。
  • 不要把真实当成不需要行动设计的借口。
  • 涉及外部事实时,要求检索、引用和验证。

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.
