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 | $0.00094 | $0.01693 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00047 | $0.00847 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00019 | $0.00339 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00169 |
Grade A, and why
cross-disciplinary-creativity 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.

Cross-Disciplinary Creativity
Overview
Importing an actual mechanism from a foreign domain and applying it structurally to a home-domain problem — producing a configuration no expert in either field could conceive alone. Not metaphor-making; the mechanism must be imported structurally, not just referenced.
Sequencing: Use AFTER [first-principles] (decomposes home domain first). Use WITH [point-line-plane-solid] (plane→solid transition). Use BEFORE [non-consensus-thinking] (to hold the non-consensus position under expert pressure).
When to Use
Use when: industry is producing structurally similar solutions; a problem has resisted all home-domain attempts; you need radical differentiation from incumbents; a foreign technology has appeared that no one in your field has noticed.
When NOT to use: home domain has well-tested solutions needing better execution; synthesis produces only metaphors; foreign mechanism is poorly understood; hours-level time pressure (synthesis requires incubation).
Coaching Novices (Adaptive Front Door)
- Engine mode: user has a concrete case → run The Process directly.
- Coach mode: user unfamiliar or no concrete case → 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.
- "The most valuable innovations are invented by people who apply a solution from one domain to a problem in another. This skill makes that transfer deliberate."
- "Tell me the problem you're stuck on and what approaches have been tried. That domain boundary is where we look."
- "Gutenberg imported the screw press from wine production, metallurgy from his trade, oil-based ink from painters, codex format from monks. None were new — the combination was unprecedented."
[WAIT — do not advance until user responds]
- "Name your home-domain problem in one sentence. What three unrelated domains face the same underlying structural challenge? Pick the one you know least — that's where your mechanism may live."
[WAIT — do not advance until user responds]
- "Structural novelty means solutions no competitor can copy, because the mechanism is invisible to them from inside their domain."
[WAIT — do not advance until user responds]
What ships with it
2 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.

cross-disciplinary-creativity is a skill published in the GitHub repository deciqAI/knowledge-skills (10 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 94 tokens to every session and 1,693 once invoked, about $0.0005 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.
