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 | $0.00052 | $0.00444 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00026 | $0.00222 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00010 | $0.00089 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00044 |
Grade A, and why
distill 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 6d 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
🧪 Think Distill
ID: think-it-through/distill
HACP: 0.4
Kind: operation
Mode: transform
Traits: read-only, semantic
Default Binding: Latest human message in relevant context
Accepts: hacp/content, hacp/result
Produces: think-it-through/clarified-thought
Duration: once
Effect: Separate every material thought, clarify each one, and expose only convergence, tension, or dependency supported by the bound context.
Limits: Preserve meaning, ambiguity, and distinctions. Do not invent connections, add advice, choose a direction, or replace clarification with another effect.

What ships with it
2 files 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.

distill is a skill published in the GitHub repository control-decks/think-it-through (3 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 52 tokens to every session and 444 once invoked, about $0.0003 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.
