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.

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 | $0.00026 | $0.01861 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00744 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00372 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00186 |
Grade A, and why
brainstorm 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 25d 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 — 64 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Brainstorm
Use when the problem, approach, or boundaries need decisions. Explore with the user; do not implement. Resume a related draft rather than starting another: the slug names .genie/brainstorms/<slug>/, whose DRAFT.md carries the state of every round.
The brainstorm is a saved workflow that runs one round per invocation, because a workflow cannot wait for a person: the owner answers between runs. The single source of truth is .claude/workflows/brainstorm.js in the genie repository's workflow catalog (see .claude/workflows/README.md there); this skill is its front door and carries no stage roster of its own. On a runtime that runs saved workflows, run the script at <repository root>/.claude/workflows/brainstorm.js when that file exists, otherwise ~/.claude/workflows/brainstorm.js (delivered by genie install / genie update); give the runtime that explicit script path, never a bare name — both scopes carry these names and the order a name resolves in is undocumented. On a runtime that does not, or where neither file exists, follow "Without a workflow surface" below.
Invoke
Pass {slug, request?, answers?, repo, tools: {ledger, evidence, reviewContract}, councilCeiling, repairBudget, model?, timestamp} through args, every path absolute:
slugis lowercase letters, digits and dashes;requestis the idea in the owner's words;repois the repository root;timestampis the caller's clock, since the workflow has none;modelpins every stage.toolsresolve from this skill's own directory, never from the checkout, so a round runs from any repository:ledgerisreferences/round-ledger.mjs,evidenceisreferences/design-review-evidence.mjs, andreviewContractisreview/SKILL.mdin the skills directory that holds this one, thereviewskill installed beside it; a single-skill install has none, and the run endsfailednaming the path. The design template stays atreferences/design-template.mdbeside the ledger, where the workflow finds it.councilCeilingis the valuegenie config get budgets.maxCouncilsPerBrainstormprints andrepairBudgetthe valuegenie config get budgets.maxEscalationsPerGroupprints, each passed as an integer, never as the printed string: the workflow treats anything that is not an integer as unset, so the string "0" would quietly raise an owner's ceiling of 0 to the default 1. Whengenieis absent or a read exits non-zero — an installed release older than the council key exits 1 on it — pass that value's schema default (ceiling 1, repair budget 2) and say so when you relay the result.
What ships with it
6 files 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.

brainstorm is a skill published in the GitHub repository automagik-dev/genie (345 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 26 tokens to every session and 1,861 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-08-30.

Stash is your personal home for agent work. Everything you create is scoped to your account — it is yours alone, with nothing to pick or set up first. Your Stash has three primary surfaces.
brief
Brief the user on what they saved in a period — the thread running through it, not a list.
resurface
Pick a few old saves worth revisiting now, and say why now.
cleanup
Find duplicates, dead links and untagged items in a saved library and propose what to do about each.
