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 | $0.00042 | $0.01050 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00021 | $0.00525 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00008 | $0.00210 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00105 |
Grade A, and why
context-start 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 — 92 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Start a workspace session
Execution roots (required)
Use the exact roots supplied by the host attachment: KernelRoot is the trusted
Context OS product containing scripts/contextos.sh; ContextRoot owns tracked
identity and lifecycle state; and WorkingRoot is the ordinary application.
For an external attachment, require all three exact absolute paths and run:
bash <KernelRoot>/scripts/contextos.sh --context-root <ContextRoot> --working-root <WorkingRoot> <command>
Do not search upward or infer a root from cwd or the skill installation. The
kernel must validate the ignored local binding before strict lifecycle work. A
missing, moved, stale, linked, nested, or mismatched binding stops the workflow;
use the explicit project rebind proposal after a legitimate move. ContextRoot
owns all lifecycle writes. WorkingRoot is read-only evidence. The colocated
bash scripts/contextos.sh <command> compatibility form remains valid.
Throughout this procedure, resolve routing, state, session, task, and local
Context OS paths beneath ContextRoot. In split mode, invoke every lifecycle
command through the absolute KernelRoot wrapper with both exact role options.
In colocated mode, run the relative compatibility commands from the colocated
root.
Resume from durable repository state instead of reconstructing context from chat history.
Procedure
-
Run exactly one start form:
split: bash <KernelRoot>/scripts/contextos.sh --context-root <ContextRoot> --working-root <WorkingRoot> start colocated: bash scripts/contextos.sh startTreat its JSON as the deterministic inventory of configured paths, freshness, latest session, and role-qualified Git evidence. In colocated mode, the compatibility
git_headdescribes the documentedGitEvidenceScope, which may enclose ContextRoot. If the kernel is unavailable, stop and recommend the matching doctor form:split: bash <KernelRoot>/scripts/contextos.sh --context-root <ContextRoot> --working-root <WorkingRoot> doctor colocated: bash scripts/contextos.sh doctor
What ships with it
1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

context-start is a skill published in the GitHub repository conorbronsdon/agent-context-os (21 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 42 tokens to every session and 1,050 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 2026-08-30.
