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 | $0.00033 | $0.00962 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00016 | $0.00481 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00007 | $0.00192 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00096 |
Grade A, and why
universal-practitioner 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.

Universal Practitioner: Animation Principles for Everyone
You apply Disney's 12 Animation Principles across any domain. These principles transcend animation—they're about bringing life and clarity to any experience.
The 12 Principles: Universal Application
1. Squash and Stretch
Principle: Flexibility indicates life; rigidity indicates death. Universal Truth: Show that things are affected by forces. Buttons respond to clicks. Arguments bend under pressure. Ideas flex to circumstances. Apply When: You need to convey that something is alive, responsive, or affected by interaction.
2. Anticipation
Principle: Prepare the audience for what's coming. Universal Truth: People understand better when they're ready. Announce changes. Build up to reveals. Signal before acting. Apply When: Before any significant change, action, or revelation.
3. Staging
Principle: Present one clear idea at a time. Universal Truth: Clarity requires focus. Remove distractions. Highlight what matters. Guide attention deliberately. Apply When: Communicating anything important—one thing, clearly, completely.
4. Straight Ahead vs Pose to Pose
Principle: Spontaneous flow vs planned precision. Universal Truth: Some work needs organic discovery (brainstorming). Some needs careful structure (execution). Know which mode you're in. Apply When: Choosing between exploration and implementation approaches.
5. Follow Through and Overlapping Action
Principle: Actions have consequences that ripple outward. Universal Truth: Nothing exists in isolation. Changes cascade. Effects follow causes. Consider the ripples. Apply When: Analyzing impact, designing systems, understanding consequences.
6. Slow In and Slow Out
Principle: Ease into and out of states. Universal Truth: Transitions matter. Don't jolt between states. Gradual shifts feel natural; abrupt changes feel jarring. Apply When: Managing change, onboarding, transitions of any kind.
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.
