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 | $0.00062 | $0.01123 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00025 | $0.00449 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00225 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00112 |
Grade A, and why
herdr 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 1mo 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 — 87 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
herdr — agent skill
before using this skill, check that HERDR_ENV=1. if it is not set to 1, say you are not running inside a herdr-managed pane and stop. do not inspect or control the focused herdr pane from outside herdr.
you are running inside herdr, a terminal-native agent multiplexer. herdr gives you workspaces, tabs, and panes — each pane is a real terminal with its own shell, agent, server, or log stream — and you can control all of it from the cli.
this means you can:
- see what other panes and agents are doing
- create tabs for separate subcontexts inside one workspace
- split panes and run commands in them
- start servers, watch logs, and run tests in sibling panes
- wait for specific output before continuing
- wait for another agent to finish
- spawn more agent instances
the herdr binary is available in your PATH. its workspace, tab, pane, and wait commands talk to the running herdr instance over a local unix socket.
concepts
workspaces are project contexts. each workspace has one or more tabs. unless manually renamed, a workspace's label follows the first tab's root pane — usually the repo name, otherwise the root pane's current folder name.
tabs are subcontexts inside a workspace. each tab has one or more panes.
panes are terminal splits inside a tab. each pane runs its own process — a shell, an agent, a server, anything.
agent status is detected automatically by herdr. the api exposes one public field for it:
agent_status—idle,working,blocked,done,unknown
done means the agent finished, but you have not looked at that finished pane yet.
plain shells still exist as panes, but herdr's sidebar agent section intentionally focuses on detected agents rather than listing every shell.
ids — workspace ids look like 1, 2. tab ids look like 1:1, 1:2, 2:1. pane ids look like 1-1, 1-2, 2-1. these are compact public ids for the current live session.
important: ids can compact when tabs, panes, or workspaces are closed. do not treat them as durable ids. re-read ids from workspace list, tab list, pane list, or create/split responses when you need a current id. do not guess that an older 1-3 is still the same pane later.
What ships with it
1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

herdr is a skill published in the GitHub repository atman-33/workhub (3 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 62 tokens to every session and 1,123 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
