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 | $0.00031 | $0.00347 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00139 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00069 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00035 |
Grade A, and why
cad-debug 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
Routing: parse $ARGUMENTS per the workflow's Route table (debug.md) -
list, status <slug>, continue <slug>, --diagnose, else a new symptom.
The table lives in the workflow, once.

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.

cad-debug is a skill published in the GitHub repository crenshawdev/cadence (8 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 31 tokens to every session and 347 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-08-31.

ai-workflow-architect
Designs AI systems, automations, and agent workflows for a business — identifying which manual work is worth automating, how to structure the system, which tools fit, and what could go wrong. Use this to automate part of an operation, design an agent or MCP workflow, reduce repetitive manual work, connect tools into a…
operating-cadence
Designs the rhythm an organization runs on — which reviews happen weekly, monthly and quarterly, what each one decides, who owns the numbers presented, and how a signal at the front line reaches the people who can act on it. Use this to set up a management operating system, fix a meeting calendar that produces no…
branch-and-worktree-workflow
Isolates feature work in its own branch or worktree and integrates it cleanly when done. Use this when starting work that should not disturb the current workspace, when several efforts must proceed in parallel on one repository, or when implementation is finished and the change needs merging, rebasing, or splitting…
broken-links
Find and fix broken links — three modes with different scale ceilings. local audits any local repo (HTML/MD/MDX, no size limit) via Glob/Grep + per-link verification. page checks one live URL deeply (30-100 outbound links per run). site requires the Ahrefs site-audit MCP for true multi-page crawl — without it, refuses…

Deep-dive codebase analysis that explains how things actually work — business rules, architecture patterns, auth flows, data models, integrations, and performance hotspots. Use whenever the user asks "how does X work", "map the Y flow", "what are the business rules for Z", "trace the auth path", "explore the codebase…
