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 | $0.00121 | $0.08120 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00060 | $0.04060 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00024 | $0.01624 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00812 |
Grade A, and why
refactor 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 3d 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 — 572 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Test-first refactoring. Audit coverage, add characterization tests if missing, apply changes with safety net.
NOT for:
- bug fixes (use
/develop:fix) - new features (use
/develop:feature) .claude/config changes (use/foundry:manage(requires foundry plugin))- non-Python projects (JS/TS/Go/Rust) — toolchain assumes pytest; use language-native toolchain instead
- mixed refactor+feature tasks — run /develop:refactor first, then /develop:feature; do not attempt both in single skill run
Quality stack (Branch Safety Guard, Codex Pre-pass, Progressive Review) requires foundry plugin; when absent, Step 5 quality stack skipped with a visible warning — output lower quality but workflow still completes.
- MAX_INNER_CYCLES: 5 (change-test cycles per outer session — Step 4 safety break)
- Key boundary: end of Step 2 — coverage audit complete, before characterization test writing in Step 3.
- Second boundary: end of Step 4 — refactor edits applied, before review stack in Step 5.
- Preserve at boundary 1: dev-dir, target path, coverage audit summary, plan-file, --keep items.
- Preserve at boundary 2: dev-dir, changed files list, test outcomes.

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.

refactor is a skill published in the GitHub repository Borda/AI-Rig (25 stars, last pushed 9d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 121 tokens to every session and 8,120 once invoked, about $0.0006 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 2026-08-30.
