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 | $0.00053 | $0.00678 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00026 | $0.00339 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00011 | $0.00136 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00068 |
Grade A, and why
sequential-thinking 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 2d 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.
This is a copy
86% identical to vc-sequential-thinking — 13 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Sequential Thinking
Structured problem-solving via manageable, reflective thought sequences with dynamic adjustment.
When to Apply
- Complex problem decomposition
- Adaptive planning with revision capability
- Analysis needing course correction
- Problems with unclear/emerging scope
- Multi-step solutions requiring context maintenance
- Hypothesis-driven investigation/debugging
Core Process
1. Start with Loose Estimate
Thought 1/5: [Initial analysis]
Adjust dynamically as understanding evolves.
2. Structure Each Thought
- Build on previous context explicitly
- Address one aspect per thought
- State assumptions, uncertainties, realizations
- Signal what next thought should address
3. Apply Dynamic Adjustment
- Expand: More complexity discovered → increase total
- Contract: Simpler than expected → decrease total
- Revise: New insight invalidates previous → mark revision
- Branch: Multiple approaches → explore alternatives
4. Use Revision When Needed
Thought 5/8 [REVISION of Thought 2]: [Corrected understanding]
- Original: [What was stated]
- Why revised: [New insight]
- Impact: [What changes]
5. Branch for Alternatives
Thought 4/7 [BRANCH A from Thought 2]: [Approach A]
Thought 4/7 [BRANCH B from Thought 2]: [Approach B]
Compare explicitly, converge with decision rationale.
6. Generate & Verify Hypotheses
Thought 6/9 [HYPOTHESIS]: [Proposed solution]
Thought 7/9 [VERIFICATION]: [Test results]
Iterate until hypothesis verified.
7. Complete Only When Ready
Mark final: Thought N/N [FINAL]
Complete when:
- Solution verified
- All critical aspects addressed
- Confidence achieved
- No outstanding uncertainties
Application Modes
Explicit: Use visible thought markers when complexity warrants visible reasoning or user requests breakdown.
Implicit: Apply methodology internally for routine problem-solving where thinking aids accuracy without cluttering response.

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.

sequential-thinking is a skill published in the GitHub repository duongductrong/cursor-kit (21 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 53 tokens to every session and 678 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 86% identical to vc-sequential-thinking, differing in 13 lines, and is treated as a copy.
