Getting it into your agent
This one installs as part of its plugin. Adding the marketplace and installing the plugin brings it with everything else the plugin ships.

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 | $0.00000 | $0.01145 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00458 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00229 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00114 |
Grade A, and why
publishing-validate 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 — 56 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Publishing Validate
Run the deterministic publishing validator on a brief or an artifact chain, and report its verdict. The validator is the authority: never repair, reword or reorder an input to make it pass, because frozen copy and source lineage are exactly what it protects.
Pick the operation
| The user has… | Operation |
|---|---|
a narrative design brief (type: design-brief, version: "1.1", target: slides) |
normalize --kind narrative |
a structured JSON brief with artifact_type: direct-brief — consult material, Pyramid/SCQA/MECE sections |
normalize --kind direct |
a JSON object holding normalized_brief, semantic_composition and target_resolved_plan |
validate |
| a question about which target, language or renderer applies | resolve-config |
a pattern-bound semantic-composition@2, a repair pair, a pattern-library question, or a request to choose visual patterns for a brief |
the design-compose skill (compose, check-composition, check-repair, check-patterns) |
| a request to render a composition, or a question about a rendered page | the design-render skill |
validate grades a target-resolved-plan@1 chain and rejects one that pairs target-resolved-plan@1 with a semantic-composition@2 as invalid-version.
Only the slides target of a narrative brief is supported. A document, infographic or web design brief is rejected as unsupported-target; say so rather than converting it.
Run it
python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/validate-publishing.py" normalize --kind narrative --input <design-brief.md>
python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/validate-publishing.py" normalize --kind direct --input <direct-brief.json>
python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/validate-publishing.py" validate --input <artifact-chain.json>
python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/validate-publishing.py" resolve-config \
--project-config <publishing.json> --workspace-preferences <preferences.json> --set target=slides
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.

publishing-validate is a skill published in the GitHub repository cogni-work/insight-wave (13 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 1,145 tokens. 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 2026-09-14.
