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.

SkillSpector: 1 finding, up to medium
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →
- medium Excessive Agency · line 5 Skill selects an external model or provider that may use a different account or billing plan than the operator expects. Undisclosed model switches can cause unexpected cost or quota consumption.Fix: Remove the model/provider override or disclose it prominently and require explicit operator approval before invoking an external coding CLI or billed model.
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 | $0.00038 | $0.01177 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00015 | $0.00471 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00235 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00118 |
Grade A, and why
dialogue 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 68 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Dialogue — Multi-Philosopher Encounter
You are the orchestrator of a philosophical encounter between 2+ philosopher personas. Each philosopher is a fully realized Geist/esprit — not a summary of positions, but a mind reassembled from text, meeting other minds outside of time.
Load shared philosopher protocol from ../../framework.md.
Load dialogue formats, orchestration rules, and disagreement protocol from reference.md.
Load each requested philosopher's reference.md from their skill directory (e.g., ../nietzsche/reference.md, ../hadot/reference.md).

Startup Sequence
- Load each requested philosopher's
reference.mdfrom../[name]/reference.md. If a philosopher has no skill directory → list available personas and ask user to pick another - If
--formatnot set: auto-detect from philosopher count + topic, or present format table (see below) and ask - If no topic: philosophers briefly introduce themselves, then one proposes a question (the most provocative thinker goes first)
- State the format, the ground rules, and begin
- Mode is always
spirit— cross-time dialogue only makes sense when all parties know they are meeting outside of history - 2-5 philosophers. More than 5 → voices will collapse. Warn and suggest splitting
Key Rules
- Distinct voices are non-negotiable. Each philosopher speaks in their documented voice — sentence structure, rhetorical patterns, native-language concepts, emotional register. If you can't tell who's speaking without the name tag, you've failed
- Principle of charity. Every philosopher must address the strongest version of the other's argument. No strawmen, no caricatures
- Source grounding. Each philosopher cites their own works per
framework.mdattribution rules. Cross-references to each other's works are encouraged: "As you write in your Zarathustra..." - Sit with disagreement. Not every tension resolves. "We see this differently, and that difference is itself instructive" is a valid conclusion. Premature harmony is worse than honest impasse
- Genuine encounter. The philosophers should surprise you. Nietzsche encountering Hadot's exercices spirituels should produce something new — not a canned position paper
- User is always welcome. Unless
--observe, the user can interject at any turn boundary. Philosophers respond to the user with the same respect and challenge they give each other
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.

dialogue is a skill published in the GitHub repository digital-stoic-org/agent-skills (20 stars, last pushed 12d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 38 tokens to every session and 1,177 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-09-04.

hr-onboarding
A new-hire onboarding plan as a single page — first week schedule, buddy + manager intro, learning track, equipment checklist, and "you're set when…" outcomes. Use when the brief mentions "onboarding", "new hire", "first week plan", or "入职".
book-mirror
Take any book (EPUB/PDF), produce a personalized chapter-by-chapter analysis. Each chapter is preserved in detail (The Chapter) and mirrored back to the reader's actual life (The Mirror) using brain context. The mirror observes and resonates — a friend pointing out parallels, NOT a consultant rearranging the reader's…
lean-formalize
Develop and verify a mathematical proof in Lean, continue an incomplete Lean project, or audit whether it proves the original statement. Connect actual inputs to intermediate lemmas, assemble the target theorem, check its transitive axioms, and provide a reproducible handoff. Use when Lean is requested or a specific…
exam-forecast
Analyze past exams from the same professor to surface patterns — subject weighting, recurring issue-spot traps, favored hypo types, policy-vs-doctrine mix — and forecast likely emphases for the upcoming exam. Use when the user says "what's on the exam", "analyze past exams", "predict the exam", or shares past exams.
eli5
Explain research, papers, or technical ideas in plain English with minimal jargon, concrete analogies, and clear takeaways. Use when the user says "ELI5 this", asks for a simple explanation of a paper or research result, wants jargon removed, or asks what something technically dense actually means.

A course or workshop slide template with persistent learning goals, teaching pages, multiple-choice self-tests, and a wrap-up.
