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 5.1 | $0.00032 | $0.00731 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00016 | $0.00365 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00146 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00073 |
Grade A, and why
autonovel-genre-pack 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 12d 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 — 53 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AutoNovel Genre Pack Authoring
Create or revise data-driven genre packs. This skill is not invoked during novel generation.
Workflow
Hermes supplies ${HERMES_SKILL_DIR} as this skill's directory. Outside the
Hermes harness, run the repository-relative commands in
../autonovel/genres/AUTHORING.md from the repository root.
- Read
../autonovel/genres/AUTHORING.mdcompletely. Use its category decision guide, manifest contract, file responsibilities, size targets, combination tests, and definition of done. - Choose one stable kebab-case ID, one category, and only the task files the pack genuinely needs. Accepted scaffold file IDs are
contract,world,characters,beats-primary,beats-modifier,drafting,slop,guardrails, andpatterns. - If the pack does not exist, scaffold it before writing content:
Never scaffold over an existing pack. Extend its manifest and files directly instead.python ${HERMES_SKILL_DIR}/../autonovel/lib/genre_pack.py scaffold --id <pack-id> --category <category> --files <comma-separated-file-ids> --genres-root ${HERMES_SKILL_DIR}/../autonovel/genres - Replace template comments with pack-specific rules. Keep universal craft in
../autonovel/references/; do not duplicate it in a pack. - Declare tags, aliases, dependencies (
includes), conflicts, beat capability, sections, and optional patterns inmanifest.json. - Validate the pack and its dependency graph:
python ${HERMES_SKILL_DIR}/../autonovel/lib/genre_pack.py validate --pack <pack-directory> --genres-root ${HERMES_SKILL_DIR}/../autonovel/genres - Inspect task paths and estimated context cost:
python ${HERMES_SKILL_DIR}/../autonovel/lib/genre_pack.py inspect --pack <pack-id> --genres-root ${HERMES_SKILL_DIR}/../autonovel/genres - Dry-run a synthetic profile through compilation:
Confirm selection, primary beats, required sections, optional omissions, and conflicts behave as intended.python ${HERMES_SKILL_DIR}/../autonovel/lib/genre_resolver.py compile --state <synthetic-state.json> --task all --genres-root ${HERMES_SKILL_DIR}/../autonovel/genres --workspace <temporary-workspace> - Run focused tests before declaring the pack complete:
python -m pytest tests/test_genre_pack.py tests/test_genre_registry.py tests/test_genre_resolver.py tests/test_genre_compile.py tests/test_genre_patterns.py tests/test_genre_integration.py -q
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.

autonovel-genre-pack is a skill published in the GitHub repository DukeTwoCan/autonovel-agent-skills (2 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 32 tokens to every session and 731 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.
