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 | $0.00074 | $0.00745 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00037 | $0.00373 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00015 | $0.00149 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00075 |
Grade A, and why
representation-and-possibility 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 55 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Representation and Possibility
Problem shape: the difficulty is not in solving but in stating — the symbols, categories, or enumerated options in play are the constraint. Symptoms: a problem that becomes trivial once renamed, a "complete" catalog nobody has bounded, a roadmap whose option space stops at the adjacent, a result that is intuitively obvious and formally unestablished.
Relevant geniuses
| Agent | Use when |
|---|---|
| euler | the current notation or vocabulary obscures the solution — redesign the notation as infrastructure, delete what the abstraction does not need, enumerate exhaustively once the symbols carry their weight |
| borges | a system claims completeness or exhaustiveness — audit whether the space is actually searchable, keep the map distinct from the territory, detect the self-reference that makes the catalog contain itself |
| lem | the question is "what could this become?" and the standard forecast is too narrow — explore the possibility space systematically, push each principle to its logical extreme to see what breaks or emerges |
| archimedes | you need the result before you can prove it — find it by physical intuition, analogy, or simulation, then prove it rigorously by a second, independent method (the two-stage discipline; stage one alone is not a result) |
Invocation
- Pick the best-fit agent above. If two or more fit, run
tools/genius-invoker.sh route "<problem>"and take the top ranked match. - Load it:
tools/genius-invoker.sh invoke <agent> "<problem>", then readagents/genius/<agent>.mdin full. - Apply the agent's
<workflow>step by step and answer in its<output-format>. When archimedes is used, the heuristic stage and the proof stage are reported separately and labeled — an unproven heuristic presented as a result is the failure mode this shape exists to prevent. - Typical chain: euler renames until the structure is visible → borges bounds
the space the new notation opens → lem pushes the surviving options to their
extremes. Run via
tools/genius-invoker.sh compose euler borges lem -- "<problem>". - If no shape above matches, do not force a genius — use a standard team agent (INDEX.md routing rule).
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.

representation-and-possibility is a skill published in the GitHub repository cdeust/zetetic-team-subagents (7 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 74 tokens to every session and 745 once invoked, about $0.0004 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.
