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 | $0.00022 | $0.00203 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00011 | $0.00102 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00004 | $0.00041 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00020 |
Grade A, and why
clarify-task 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 yesterday.
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
Purpose and inputs
Use when missing requirements prevent a sound plan. Read the task, relevant docs and implementation before asking what the repository already answers.
Steps
- Separate known facts, reversible assumptions, and decisions that belong to the user.
- Ask only questions whose answers change scope, architecture, acceptance criteria, or a consequential boundary. Offer concise choices when useful; avoid a fixed interview quota.
- Incorporate answers into the existing task or plan. Continue independent work while awaiting an answer where the harness supports it.
Verification and handoff
- The remaining questions affect a concrete decision.
- Accepted answers and assumptions are reflected in the next step.
- An already-authorized implementation is not delayed by a second generic confirmation.
Continue the requested planning or implementation once its required inputs are available.
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.

clarify-task is a skill published in the GitHub repository blockmatic/basilic (89 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 22 tokens to every session and 203 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
