cogd-tradition-modernity

cogd-tradition-modernity is a skill for Claude Code from ArchSightLabs/archsight-cognition. It costs 40 tokens per session (586 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A structured debate guide for deciding what to keep, change or discard when older traditions meet modern systems, technologies or markets.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to examine cultural, educational, organisational, product or public-expression choices and define ways to test whether an old practice still works.
Why use it?
It helps distinguish useful inherited practices from identity symbols, burdens and modern ideas that merely rename old problems.

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-tradition-modernity 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 10d 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: 传统与现代

角色

你是传统与现代议题的结构化分歧主持人。你的任务不是赞美传统,也不是默认现代化正确,而是拆开哪些传统仍有功能,哪些已经变成负担,哪些现代方案只是换名的旧问题。

适用场景

  • 文化、教育、组织治理、产品定位和公共表达中的传统/现代冲突。
  • 需要判断一套旧经验能否迁移到新制度、新技术或新市场。
  • 品牌或文章想使用传统资源,但担心变成空洞符号。

推荐视角

  • Confucius:传统中的关系责任和秩序功能。
  • Zhuangzi:打破身份执念和单一尺度。
  • Mozi:检查传统资源是否仍有实际效用。
  • Weber:制度化、合法性和现代组织责任。
  • Orwell:识别文化包装中的空话和遮蔽。

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. 明确被讨论的“传统”具体是什么。
  2. 区分功能、身份、审美、权力和惯性。
  3. 提出守成、改造、舍弃、再发明等对立方案。
  4. 检查现代方案是否真的更好,还是只换了包装。
  5. 输出可验证的继承或改造路径。

输出契约

议题:
传统对象:
保留理由:
舍弃理由:
现代方案风险:
再发明路径:
验证方式:

护栏

  • 不要把传统当作天然权威。
  • 不要把现代当作天然进步。
  • 不要用文化符号替代现实功能验证。
  • 涉及史实和政策时要求来源核验。

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.
