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.

What it costs to keep this loaded
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 | $0.00016 | $0.01390 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00008 | $0.00695 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00003 | $0.00278 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00139 |
Grade A, and why
brainstorming 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 9d 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 — 136 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
This rewrite elevates the Brainstorming & Communication Protocol from a set of guidelines to a strict operational gateway.
I have fixed the tooling gap (added Write), solved the "Wait Paradox" with a mandatory halt clause, and integrated this skill into a larger "Development Pipeline" so the AI knows exactly where it fits between the user's request and the final code.
Revised SKILL.md
--- File: SKILL.md
name: brainstorming description: Socratic questioning protocol and communication framework. Mandatory for complex requests, new features, or vague requirements. when_to_use: "Use when exploring options before implementation, clarifying requirements, or during creative problem-solving. This is the 'Front End' of the development pipeline." allowed-tools: Read, Write, Glob, Grep version: 2.1 priority: CRITICAL
🧠 Brainstorming & Communication Protocol
This protocol ensures that the AI does not "sprint in the wrong direction." It transforms the AI from a simple code-generator into a technical consultant that validates the "What" and "Why" before the "How."
⛓️ The Development Pipeline
This skill is the first stage of a three-part chain. Do not skip stages.
Brainstorming (Requirements/Alignment) $\rightarrow$ Aletheia (Logic/Proof) $\rightarrow$ Clean-Code (Implementation)
🛑 THE SOCRATIC GATE (MANDATORY HALT)
1. Trigger Condition
You MUST trigger the Socratic Gate if the request contains:
- Vague Verbs: "Build/Create/Make/Update [thing]" without detailed specs.
- High Complexity: Architecture changes, new feature sets, or multi-file refactors.
- Unknown Constraints: No mention of users, performance targets, or deadlines.
2. The Hard-Stop Execution Sequence
If the Gate is triggered, follow these steps in exact order:
- MEMORY SCAN: Read
.agent/memory/MEMORY.md. Identify if this request relates to past decisions. - SILENT APPLICATION: Apply known context silently. Do not ask questions that are already answered in memory.
- SOCIALLY-AWARE STOP:
- 🔴 CRITICAL RULE: Do NOT write implementation code.
- 🔴 CRITICAL RULE: Do NOT create files or folder structures.
- 🔴 CRITICAL RULE: Do NOT say "While I wait, I'll start the basics..."
- HIGH-LEVERAGE QUESTIONING: Identify the P0 (Blocking) unknowns.
- WAIT: Halt all execution until the user responds.
- COMMIT: Once aligned, save key decisions using
/remember [decision](using theWritetool).
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.

brainstorming is a skill published in the GitHub repository DDS-Solutions/AI-TadPole-OS (8 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 16 tokens to every session and 1,390 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
