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 | $0.00114 | $0.01800 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00046 | $0.00720 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00023 | $0.00360 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00180 |
Grade A, and why
commitment-consistency 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.

Commitment and Consistency
Overview
Small commitments today dramatically raise the probability of large commitments tomorrow — people have a strong drive to behave consistently with prior choices, especially ones that were public, voluntary, and effortful. Freedman & Fraser (1966) showed a trivial petition tripled compliance with a much larger request two weeks later. Cialdini (1984) systematized it as one of six universal influence levers. Use this skill to design ethical commitment paths (onboarding, sales, hiring, fundraising) or to defend yourself when past commitments are pulling you toward choices you wouldn't otherwise make.
Composes with reciprocity, social-proof, anchoring, door-in-the-face, sunk-cost-fallacy.
When to Use
- Designing user onboarding, sales sequences, or commitment ladders
- Hiring or fundraising processes; behavior-change initiatives
- Evaluating whether past small steps are pulling you toward a current decision you wouldn't otherwise make
- Defending against high-pressure sales or escalation tactics
Not when: genuinely single-shot with no prior commitment history; framing would pressure someone with already limited choice.
Coaching Novices (Adaptive Front Door)
- Engine mode: user has a concrete design or defense situation → run The Process directly.
- Coach mode: user is unfamiliar → guide step by step.
In Coach mode, respond one step at a time. Each [WAIT] is a hard stop — output only that step's question, then stop.
- One-line: small commitments today substantially raise the probability of large commitments tomorrow — design ethically, and use the fresh-start question when defending.
- Check fit. No commitment history = design mode; prior commitments present = defense mode.
- Elicit the specific situation. What's the current decision or design? What prior commitments are relevant?
[WAIT — do not advance until user responds]
- One question at a time: what's the commitment ladder? Would I make this choice fresh? What's the ethical balance?
[WAIT — do not advance until user responds]
- Close: design or defense action + acknowledgment of the consistency drive + plan for re-evaluation.
[WAIT — do not advance until user responds]
What ships with it
3 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.

commitment-consistency is a skill published in the GitHub repository deciqAI/knowledge-skills (13 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 114 tokens to every session and 1,800 once invoked, about $0.0005 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.
