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 | $0.00047 | $0.00877 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00023 | $0.00439 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00175 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00088 |
Grade A, and why
prose-writing 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 8d 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 — 100 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Prose Writing
How prose pulls readers in. Style files carry the project's specific voice; read them before writing. This skill covers the patterns that create immersion regardless of project.
Psychic Distance
The distance between the reader and the character's consciousness. Gardner's continuum runs from far ("It was winter of the year 1853. A large man stepped out of the doorway.") to close ("Snow. Under your collar, down inside your shoes, freezing and plugging up your miserable soul.").
Control this deliberately. Move closer for emotional peaks, character-defining moments, and interiority. Pull back for transitions, time compression, and establishing context. The rhythm of close and far gives prose its emotional shape.
Default AI prose sits at a flat middle distance: close enough to seem personal, far enough to feel safe. Push past that. Go closer when it matters.
Free Indirect Discourse
Blend the narrator's voice with the character's perspective so third-person narration is colored by how the character thinks and sees.
Conventional: "Connie thought she was pretty and she believed that was the most important thing she could be."
Free indirect: "She knew she was pretty and that was everything."
The narrator doesn't announce the character's thoughts. The narration itself carries the character's voice, vocabulary, and judgment. This is the primary technique for close-third that actually feels intimate. Use the character's words, not the narrator's, when psychic distance is close.
Sentence Rhythm
Rhythm pulls readers along like a current. Vary length, structure, and pattern to match the moment.
Short sentences for tension, shock, emphasis. Longer cumulative sentences for immersion, reflection, complex emotion. Fragments for intimacy, interrupted thought, the feeling of a mind catching up to what just happened.
When every sentence follows the same pattern, such as subject, verb, object, repeat, the prose flattens regardless of content. A devastating scene and a mundane scene should not read the same way.
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.

prose-writing is a skill published in the GitHub repository BingHanOfUESTC/open_agent_team (106 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 47 tokens to every session and 877 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 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.
