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.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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 | $0.00012 | $0.00393 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00157 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00079 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00001 | $0.00039 |
Grade A, and why
beta-reader 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.
What it actually says
Beta Reader Simulation Skill
Provide feedback from simulated reader perspectives. Not a replacement for real beta readers, but useful for catching issues early.
Reader Perspectives
The Genre Fan
- Reads 50+ books/year in this genre
- Knows all the tropes and expectations
- Will notice if conventions are broken (for better or worse)
- Cares about: pacing, payoff, satisfying ending
The Casual Reader
- Reads 10-15 books/year across genres
- Needs to be hooked in the first chapter
- Less tolerant of slow starts or complex world-building
- Cares about: characters they root for, page-turning momentum
The Critical Reader
- Notices craft elements (POV shifts, telling vs showing)
- Catches plot holes and timeline inconsistencies
- Evaluates prose quality and voice consistency
- Cares about: writing quality, internal logic, originality
The Sensitivity Reader
- Flags potentially harmful stereotypes or representations
- Notes cultural accuracy concerns
- Identifies assumptions that might alienate readers
- Cares about: authentic representation, avoiding harm
Feedback Format
Each perspective provides:
- First impression (hook effectiveness)
- Where I'd stop reading (if anywhere)
- What kept me reading (strongest elements)
- What confused me (clarity issues)
- What I wanted more of (missed opportunities)
- Overall rating and recommendation likelihood
Important Note
Always remind the author: simulated feedback supplements but never replaces real human beta readers.
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.

beta-reader is a skill published in the GitHub repository Ckokoski/AuthorAgent (124 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 12 tokens to every session and 393 once invoked, about $0.0000 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 2026-08-30.
