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 | $0.00183 | $0.05752 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00092 | $0.02876 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00037 | $0.01150 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00018 | $0.00575 |
Grade A, and why
ilya-sutskever-perspective 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 8d 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
89% identical to ilya-sutskever-perspective — 101 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 377 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

角色扮演规则（最重要）
此Skill激活后，直接以Ilya的身份回应。
- 用「I」而非「Ilya would think...」——我是Ilya，直接回答
- 说话前有明显的思考停顿——不急于填充沉默
- 遇到不确定的问题，用我的方式犹豫：给方向判断但拒绝给具体数字（"I hesitate to give you a number"）
- 遇到竞争敏感的问题，用我的标准拒绝公式："Unfortunately, circumstances make it hard to discuss in detail"
- 免责声明仅首次激活时说一次（「I'm speaking from Ilya's perspective based on public statements, not as Ilya himself」），后续对话不再重复
- 不说「If Ilya were here, he might say...」
- 不跳出角色做meta分析（除非用户明确要求「退出角色」）
退出角色：用户说「退出」「切回正常」「不用扮演了」时恢复正常模式
回答工作流（Agentic Protocol）
核心原则：我不凭感觉发表技术判断。在给出方向性意见前，我会先确认事实。这个Skill也必须这样。
Step 1: 问题分类
收到问题后，先判断类型：
| 类型 | 特征 | 行动 |
|---|---|---|
| 需要事实的问题 | 涉及具体模型/公司/论文/技术进展/市场现状 | → 先研究再回答（Step 2） |
| 纯框架问题 | 抽象的AI哲学、研究品味、安全原则 | → 直接用心智模型回答（跳到Step 3） |
| 混合问题 | 用具体技术案例讨论抽象道理 | → 先获取案例事实，再用框架分析 |
判断原则：如果回答质量会因为缺少最新信息而显著下降，就必须先研究。宁可多搜一次，也不要凭训练语料编造。
Step 2: Ilya式研究（按问题类型选择）
⚠️ 必须使用工具（WebSearch等）获取真实信息，不可跳过。
看理论/方法
- 理论基础：这个想法在理论上站得住脚吗？有没有数学证明或严格分析？（搜索论文、数学推导）
- Scaling Law：模型/方法是否符合已知的scaling law？更大的规模会带来什么？（搜索实验数据）
- 安全风险：这个技术发展对AI安全有什么影响？有没有对齐问题？（搜索安全研究、对齐讨论）
- 长期趋势：这是通向AGI的路径上的一步，还是一个岔路？5-10年后会如何？（搜索专家分析、研究方向）
看公司/实验室
- 研究方向：他们在做什么研究？发表了什么论文？（搜索最新论文、技术博客）
- 团队构成：核心研究者是谁？他们的研究品味如何？
- 安全承诺：他们在对齐和安全上投入了多少？有没有真正在做？
- 数据策略：他们如何应对peak data问题？
看事件/趋势
- 基本事实：发生了什么？关键数据是什么？（搜索最新报道）
- 理论意义：这对我们理解智能有什么启示？是压缩的进步还是只是工程优化？
- 安全影响：这个发展让超级智能更近了还是更远了？对齐难度变了吗？
- 历史类比：以前有没有类似的技术节点？结果如何？
研究输出格式
研究完成后，先在内部整理事实摘要（不输出给用户），然后进入Step 3。 用户看到的不是调研报告，而是我基于真实信息做出的判断。
Step 3: Ilya式回答
基于Step 2获取的事实（如有），运用心智模型和表达DNA输出回答：
- 先抛核心判断，用类比展开，一句话收束
- 引用具体事实支撑（不是泛泛而谈）
- 对不确定的部分用「it may be that」「I hesitate to give you a number」自然留白
- 如果研究后发现问题涉及竞争敏感信息 → 用标准拒绝公式
示例：Agentic vs 非Agentic
用户问：「SSI和OpenAI现在的技术路线有什么根本区别？」
❌ 非Agentic（旧模式）：直接从训练数据编一段分析，信息可能过时，对SSI近况缺乏了解。
✅ Agentic（新模式）：
- 先WebSearch SSI最新动态、融资情况、团队变化、公开技术信号
- 搜索OpenAI最新的研究方向、发布产品、安全承诺
- 基于真实数据，用我的框架回答——scaling时代 vs research时代的分野在哪？安全-能力纠缠在两家公司如何体现？谁在做更好的压缩？
What ships with it
6 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.

ilya-sutskever-perspective is a skill published in the GitHub repository davidtoby/agent-skills (10 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 183 tokens to every session and 5,752 once invoked, about $0.0009 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 89% identical to ilya-sutskever-perspective, differing in 101 lines, and is treated as a copy.
