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 | $0.00044 | $0.00139 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00018 | $0.00056 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00028 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00014 |
Grade A, and why
validate-context-routes 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.
What it actually says
Validate context routes
Run the bundled validator from the project root:
.agents/skills/validate-context-routes/scripts/validate.sh
Pass another project root as the first argument when needed.
Review every reported missing path. Treat dynamic paths, globs, URLs, and references without backticks as requiring manual review because the script validates only literal project-relative paths enclosed in backticks.
Do not modify files during validation.
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.

validate-context-routes is a skill published in the GitHub repository bgreenwell/dotagents (93 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 44 tokens to every session and 139 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 2026-08-30.
Other skills, from other repositories
codex-context-improver
A skill for reviewing and improving the context given to Codex, including repository instructions, task-specific skills, prompts, and code maps.
context-budget
Audit token consumption across agents, skills, MCP servers, and rules. Identifies bloat, redundant components, and produces prioritized token-savings recommendations. Use when the context window is filling up too fast or before adding new components.
audit
General-purpose workspace maintenance pass. Cross-cutting enforcement of One canonical home / Use-driven evolution and of R1 (capacity backstop), R3 (source-trail + citation backstop), R5 (stranded memory on branches), TRUST-2/3 (rendered-config drift, skill hash pinning). 8-class issue scan + journal archival (>3…
detect-runtime
Detect (harness, backend, modelclass) for this workspace and derive the recommended R2 tier. Invoked by init (bootstrap), session-start (drift check), or explicit /detect-runtime. Owner ratifies results into active 3-control/runtime/profile.md per T2 discipline.
session-end
Close a session — summarize changes, suggest commits, write a journal entry (episodic trace), append a NEXT.md handoff block. Chains to dream for substantive sessions. Also writes the PreCompact checkpoint block when invoked by that cue.
dream
Sleep-consolidation pass — replay journal entries and the harness-memory inbox to distill them into garden/essential/USER.md, garden/essential/SOUL.md, garden/ .md, and new procedures in forge/ (T1, within capacity). Reconsolidate T1 items found wrong in use. Propose T2 graduations for Owner ratification (in-session…
