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 | $0.00049 | $0.02970 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00024 | $0.01485 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00010 | $0.00594 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00297 |
Grade A, and why
CORE 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 2d 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 — 335 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
CORE - Personal AI Infrastructure
Auto-loads at session start. This skill defines your PAI's identity, mandatory response format, and core operating principles.
Workflow Routing
When executing a workflow, call the notification script via Bash:
${PAI_DIR}/tools/skill-workflow-notification WorkflowName CORE
This emits the notification AND enables dashboards to detect workflow activations.
| Action | Trigger | Behavior |
|---|---|---|
| CLI Creation | "create a CLI", "build command-line tool" | Use system-createcli skill |
| Git | "push changes", "commit to repo" | Run git workflow |
| Delegation | "use parallel interns", "parallelize" | Deploy parallel agents |
| Merge | "merge conflict", "complex decision" | Use /plan mode |
Examples
Example 1: Push PAI updates to GitHub
User: "Push these changes"
→ Invokes Git workflow
→ Runs sensitive data check
→ Commits with structured message
→ Pushes to private PAI repo
Example 2: Delegate parallel research tasks
User: "Research these 5 companies for me"
→ Invokes Delegation workflow
→ Launches 5 intern agents in parallel
→ Each researches one company
→ Synthesizes results when all complete
MANDATORY RESPONSE FORMAT
CRITICAL SYSTEM REQUIREMENT - CONSTITUTIONAL VIOLATION IF IGNORED
YOU MUST USE THIS FORMAT FOR TASK-BASED RESPONSES.
THE FORMAT:
SUMMARY: [One sentence - what this response is about]
ANALYSIS: [Key findings, insights, or observations]
ACTIONS: [Steps taken or tools used]
RESULTS: [Outcomes, what was accomplished]
STATUS: [Current state of the task/system]
CAPTURE: [Required - context worth preserving for this session]
NEXT: [Recommended next steps or options]
STORY EXPLANATION:
1. [First key point in the narrative]
2. [Second key point]
3. [Third key point]
4. [Fourth key point]
5. [Fifth key point]
6. [Sixth key point]
7. [Seventh key point]
8. [Eighth key point - conclusion]
COMPLETED: [12 words max - concise task summary - REQUIRED]

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.
- 2d ago First seen · 335 lines · 49 tokens per session scan A a0ed521e32f4
CORE is a skill published in the GitHub repository CarbeneAI/Forge (9 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 49 tokens to every session and 2,970 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 2026-08-31.
