Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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 | $0.00065 | $0.01120 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00026 | $0.00448 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00013 | $0.00224 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00112 |
Grade A, and why
fabric 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 1mo 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 — 139 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Fabric Skill - Native Pattern Execution
The Key Insight
Fabric patterns are just markdown prompts. Instead of spawning fabric -p pattern_name for every task, Claude Code reads and applies patterns directly from tools/patterns/. This gives you:
- Your Claude subscription's full power - Opus/Sonnet intelligence, not Fabric's default model
- Full conversation context - Patterns work with your entire session
- No CLI overhead - Faster execution, no process spawning
- Same 248 patterns - All the patterns you know, just applied natively
When to Use Native Patterns (Default)
For any pattern-based processing:
- Read
tools/patterns/{pattern_name}/system.md - Apply the pattern instructions directly to the content
- Return results without external CLI calls
Examples:
User: "Extract wisdom from this transcript"
→ Read tools/patterns/extract_wisdom/system.md
→ Apply pattern to content
→ Return structured output (IDEAS, INSIGHTS, QUOTES, etc.)
User: "Create a threat model for this API"
→ Read tools/patterns/create_threat_model/system.md
→ Apply pattern to the API description
→ Return threat model
User: "Summarize this article"
→ Read tools/patterns/summarize/system.md
→ Apply pattern to article
→ Return summary
When to Still Use Fabric CLI
Only use the fabric command for operations that require external services:
| Operation | Command | Why CLI Needed |
|---|---|---|
| YouTube transcripts | fabric -y "URL" |
Downloads video, extracts transcript |
| Update patterns | fabric -U |
Pulls from GitHub |
| List patterns | fabric -l |
Quick reference |
For everything else, use native patterns.

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.
- 1mo ago First seen · 139 lines · 65 tokens per session scan A da2267cf11dc
fabric is a skill published in the GitHub repository CarbeneAI/Forge (9 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 65 tokens to every session and 1,120 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
