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 | $0.00019 | $0.01779 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00712 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00356 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00178 |
Grade A, and why
agent-merge-conflict-arbiter 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 3d 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.
This is a copy
100% identical to agent-merge-conflict-arbiter — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Agent Merge-Conflict Arbiter
Resolve a git merge conflict between two AGENTS' branches as an impartial third party. Agents resolving conflicts against a peer's work reliably either overwrite the peer or abandon their own change — they lack the peer's context and are biased toward their own side. This skill is the fix: a neutral reconciler that receives both diffs plus both sides' stated intents and produces a merged result, like a merge-queue arbiter.
When to Use
- Two agent branches/worktrees collide during a parallel campaign (kanban engineering pipeline, parallel-PR wave, multi-worktree refactor).
git mergeorgit rebasehalts on conflicts between two agents' work and neither original agent should self-adjudicate.- Do NOT use for conflicts within a single agent's own work, or for trivial lockfile/generated-file conflicts (regenerate those instead).
Prerequisites
- A repo checkout containing the halted merge, or the two branch names plus permission to run the merge yourself.
- Both sides' intent sources: kanban completion summaries (
terminalrunninghermes kanban show <task-id>), PR bodies, or at minimum each branch's commit messages. - The project's build/test command, if one exists.
How to Run
Standalone — a human (or agent) invokes this skill inside the conflicted repo: load the skill, then follow the Procedure top to bottom.
Spawned neutral agent — the preferred shape in multi-agent campaigns:
delegate_task: spawn a subagent whose task message contains the repo path, both branch names, and both sides' intent summaries verbatim, plus an instruction to follow this skill.- Kanban-native: create a reconciliation card assigned to a third profile
(not either worker's profile) with BOTH conflicted cards linked as parents —
kanban_create(title="reconcile branch-a x branch-b", assignee="reconciler", parents=["t_a", "t_b"]). The parent links carry both sides' completion summaries into the reconciler's context automatically; the card body should name the repo path and the two branches.
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.
