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 | $0.00105 | $0.01067 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00053 | $0.00534 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00021 | $0.00213 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00107 |
Grade A, and why
one-three-one-rule 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 11d 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.
This is a copy
84% identical to one-three-one-rule — 12 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 104 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
1-3-1 Communication Rule
Structured decision-making format for when a task has multiple viable approaches and the user needs a clear recommendation. Produces a concise problem framing, three options with trade-offs, and an actionable plan for the recommended path.
When to Use
- The user explicitly asks for a "1-3-1" response.
- The user says "give me options" or "what are my choices" for a technical decision.
- A task has multiple viable approaches with meaningful trade-offs (architecture, tooling, migration strategy).
- The user needs a proposal they can forward to a team or stakeholder.
Do NOT use for simple questions with one obvious answer, debugging sessions, or tasks where the user has already decided on an approach.
Procedure
-
Problem (one sentence)
- State the core decision or desired outcome in a single concise sentence.
- Focus on the what, not the how — no implementation details, tool names, or specific technologies.
- Keep it tight. If you need "and", you're describing two problems.
-
Options (exactly three)
- Present three distinct, viable approaches labeled A, B, C.
- Each option gets a brief description, pros, and cons.
- Options should represent genuinely different strategies, not minor variations of the same approach.
-
Recommendation (one option)
- State which option you recommend and why, based on the user's context and priorities.
- Be direct — this is your professional judgment, not a hedge.
-
Definition of Done
- List the specific success criteria for the recommended option.
- These are concrete, verifiable outcomes — not vague aspirations.
- If the user picks a different option, revise this section to match.
-
Implementation Plan
- Concrete steps to execute the recommended option.
- Include specific commands, tools, or actions where applicable.
- If the user picks a different option, revise this section to match.
Verification
- Response has exactly one Problem sentence.
- Response has exactly three Options (A, B, C) with pros and cons for each.
- Response has a single Recommendation that picks one option with reasoning.
- Definition of Done and Implementation Plan align with the recommended option.
- If the user selects a different option, Recommendation, DoD, and Implementation Plan update accordingly.
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.

one-three-one-rule is a skill published in the GitHub repository braxtonROSE4/zorro-agent (8 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 105 tokens to every session and 1,067 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 84% identical to one-three-one-rule, differing in 12 lines, and is treated as a copy.
