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 | $0.00030 | $0.01038 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00015 | $0.00519 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00208 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00104 |
Grade A, and why
genius 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 5d 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 — 38 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
The Genius Map
The map answers three questions: where every piece of work stands, what runs next, and which genius went missing when something feels wrong. It routes; it never builds.
The flow
Every piece of work travels through six geniuses, in three pairs:
| Stage | Genius | Command | Skipping it looks like |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ideation | Wonder — question the work | /wonder |
building exactly the wrong thing |
| Invention — generate options | /invent |
anchoring on the first idea | |
| Activation | Discernment — judge and choose | /discern |
plausible-but-wrong ships |
| Galvanizing — mobilize into slices | /galvanize |
a plan nobody can start | |
| Implementation | Enablement — build with tight loops | /enable |
flying blind until a big-bang reveal |
| Tenacity — finish with evidence | /tenacity |
"done" that isn't |
State lives in .genius/<slug>.md — the bounded snapshot a cold session reads whole — with its history appended to .genius/<slug>.log.md beside it (the genius-file skill owns the discipline). Each stage ends when its one threshold is honestly true; each is a command the user types, and one they don't type simply doesn't run — its absent section is the record. Four layers run underneath: the domain-glossary skill keeps the project's shared language in CONTEXT.md, the decision-record skill keeps the index of its settled decisions in .genius/DECIDED.md, the blindspot skill hunts the unknowns the stages can't reach, and the errata skill corrects what any of them got wrong — rewriting what binds, appending to what records.
What to do when invoked
No argument → status, from the in-flight work files only: each one's stage, what's unfinished, which stages never ran, and the exact next command; flag work untouched for weeks as stale and offer to resume or abandon. For calibration, read .genius/HISTORY.md instead of opening every done snapshot to find its post-mortem — one line per finished work, appended by /tenacity at close-out: a genius repeatedly weakest there is calibration, not coincidence, so say so when routing new work and let that stage get deliberate weight. And light up the backlog: .genius/BACKLOG.md's lines are work the flow already discovered and nobody started — show them every time, because an idea the user must remember to ask about is an idea the flow already lost once. Nothing in flight, no history, no backlog? Show the flow and how to start.
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.

genius is a skill published in the GitHub repository donald-ada/workinggenius (5 stars, last pushed 7d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 30 tokens to every session and 1,038 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.

Self-improve this skills repo — surface and (safely) apply quality improvements across four parallel read-only lenses (Clarity, Leanness, Coverage, Ergonomics). Sibling of /self-audit — audit fixes rule violations, improve raises quality where no rule is broken. Local meta-skill, independent of the /task: pipeline.
